Kathleen Halton, of Ithaca, said there was no denying that American society is racist and that whites enjoyed de facto racial privilege. Halton said that as a white American, she had been conditioned to have racist views.

So shouldn't she be in counseling trying to work out her "racist views" in private instead of beating her (probably top free) breasts in public about it? Talk about "liberal guilt".

Tompkins County Probation Director Kathryn L. Leinthall said she did not believe her department treated African-Americans unfairly, but added that she would review records to determine if a bias exists.

In other words, let's waste more taxpayer dollars to conduct a "study."

Here's a novel suggestion: why just get rid of these stupid liberal "alternative to incarceration" progams totally and TREAT EVERYONE EQUALLY?

Yeah, right.

By the way, in case anyone is wondering Leinthall doesn't even LIVE in Tompkins County. She is, however, a known lesbian and, therefore, most likely, a "quota" hiree.

[Police Chief] Signer said people who have concerns that the system is discriminatory should join it and try to reform it from the inside. "Because my presence makes a difference and these officers make a difference," Signer said, referring to the officers of color in the room.

Like Leinthall, Signer is, as noted previously, a product of affirmative action. She was hired simply because they wanted a woman.

Residents also voiced concern about racial profiling in Ithaca. They repeatedly said if the victim of the July 8 assault had been white -- and her attackers black -- police and the judiciary system would have responded differently. Many said they felt the defendants would still be in jail. Others said they thought if they had been black, the defendants would have been lynched.

Of all the disgusting things I have ever seen or heard the sick, twisted liberals of Ithaca say, this may take the cake.

What do these lying idiots think? That there has never been a case of black on white crime in Ithaca? Not a mugging? Not an assault? Obviously there are such crimes. And there haven't been any "lynchings."

Jeez. Grow up and move on people. The Jim Crow days are over.

For all the barf alert warnings we have here at FR this time I actually feel--and I am not making this up-- like I might really do so.

If anyone, anyone, here ever again wonders why "Ithaca is the City of Evil." I refer them to this thread.

"Kathleen Halton, of Ithaca, said there was no denying that American society is racist and that whites enjoyed de facto racial privilege.
Halton said that as a white American, she had been conditioned to have racist views.

"There is no way to grow up white, and not be racist, that doesn't happen," she said.

Pure Racist Poppycock! I deny it!

I am white. I was born (1941) and raised in the South. "American by birth, Southern by the Grace of God!"

I am not a racist, and I am damn proud of the fact that I treat my fellow man as I would want to be treated. For those of us old enough to remember, it is called The Golden Rule: "Do unto others as you would have them do to you."

If I can grow up in the deep South and not be a bigot, Ms. Halton, surely you can grow up in the "Enlightened North" and not be a bigot!

My experience of life is that those who would hurl the "Racist" epithet at others are themselves racist bigots.

Life is just too damn short for us to put up with these type of low-life maggots. I say, "Break out the tar and feathers, and run 'em out of this country on a rail!"
