Page has eyes, but he can't see. The white firefighters, like the balck firefighters, like the Latino firefighters, were exceedingly willing to risk, even sacrifice, their lives to save the lives of white, black, brown, yellow, and whatever other colors of people who were in grave danger on 9/11. That's the story - that ALL the people in those buildings were equally valuable to the brave who rushed into Harm's Way.

Page doesn't understand the principle of representative. The "white-guys," as Page puts it, in real life, in the real event, were representing all the other firefighters at that moment. The statue memorializing that moment should do the same. Represent.

Also, Page is a maroon.

True.... By Clarence Page's reasoning women can't read books by male authors since men can't ever know how women live and vice versa and the same could be said for whites not being able to appreciate works written by a black author and vice versa. Do you see what I'm getting at? If empathy with the human experience can only be felt by people who look like you the dream of human brotherhood would never be realized. Page and today's PC liberals are both idiots and racists.
