DALLAS Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price physically accosted WFAA reporter Brett Shipp while Shipp was trying to gain access to Price's county office Wednesday morning.
Price struck Shipp with an open palm to the throat during a News 8 investigation of county equipment and purchases.
The incident occurred when Shipp was asked by Commissioner Maurine Dickey to accompany her to Price's Langdon Road office to gain access to storage sheds located on the county complex.
The News 8 video shows Brett Shipp, WFAA producer Mark Smith and photographer Billy Bryant following Commissioner Price and others as they attempted to enter the office front door.
Following the physical confrontation, Shipp and Commissioner Price had a second discussion. The News 8 video audibly captures an exchange in which Price tells Shipp, "I'm going to split your neck."

This guy has a history. Just watched another video of hm telling constituents to go to Hell, because they were white. Here is that older video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aifas6SzyYk&feature=player_embedded

I was just about to post this. John Wiley is apparently feeling the strain of scrutiny...he’s not used to it.

More of the civility we are always hearing about?
Well, we were hearing about it last January.

Price has a long, bad, racist history, it’s definitely time for a comeuppance for the esteemed Commissioner.

Realize this...much of government is at WAR with the citizenry. This cannot end well. It never does. The Founding Fathers knew it and we should know it too. “We the People....!”

Price has absolute, murderous contempt for white people; for anyone other than blacks. He makes Louis Farrakhan look like Mr. Rogers.
Please let his fall and imprisonment be as painful as is humanly possible.

Shipp was asked by Commissioner Maurine Dickey to accompany her to Price's Langdon Road office to gain access to storage sheds located on the county complex. Did she find any missing equipment?

Interesting. No political party mentioned.Technically, County Commissioner elections are not partisan races. No party label is allowed on the ballot, so none are mentioned in news stories.
Let's put it this way. People over in Dallas County were stunned when Eddie Bernice Johnson(D), a Progressive in Congress, said John Wiley Price was "too corrupt" to hold political office. That was the pot calling the kettle black......so to speak.

And if Shipp doesn’t file assault charges, he is a coward.

Got it . . . thanks . . . isn't it wonderful to be a taxpaying Caucasian American and to see how far this Kenyan foreigner in our White House has brought our two races together . . . this Price guys seems like a thug who has all the charm of those Negro Americans who threatened Caucasian voters in the last election.
We've come so far, haven't we, what with this skinny unknown illegal alien in our White House who has this trickled-down racism dripping into each city.

When the white liberals see the video, they dance a jig. This is what they want!
