I am reading this message as I am watching the 50th Anniversary of Martin Luther King’s “I have a Dream” speech. It is obvious by your remarks that there is still work to do. You are obviously blinded by your narrow minded and obsolete ideas.
We are still the greatest country in the world but we can be better. We have to provide opportunities for all in this country. If someone is willing to work they should be able to support their families. Health care needs to be available to all at reasonable cost. Corporations should not be allowed to dictate political policy to their advantage and the disadvantage of regular citizens.
You have proved the necessity for racial and social dialog by you casual racism.
JB, instead of making a productive comment to further the dialogue or a well-thought-out counterpoint, you simply call Ms. Arenson names. By doing so, you actually prove Ms. Arenson’s point that “a bona fide and equitable dialogue isn’t going to happen in the forseeable future.”
A couple of weeks ago, an Australian baseball player was murdered in Oklahoma, while out on a jog. Three suspects were arrested: Two Black, one White. When the Drudge Report ran a headline on the story, they featured a picture of the White victim and the two Black assailants, but not the White accomplice. Underneath that was a link to a quote by Pat Buchanan, stating that interracial violence is overwhelmingly black-on-white. (btw, the local D.A. says there’s nothing to suggest that the murder was racially motivated) My question for Ms. Arenson is, does she also consider Matt Drudge and Pat Buchanan to be among the “lowest of the low”?
Yes, “SV”, the answer is yes. I am not fond of Drudge or Buchanan and I follow neither. We will be a better citizenry when everyone who has a microphone or uses any form of media, reports the whole and truthful facts on “news” events. I don’t see that happening in either the near or distant future. That is a travesty.
A sober, fair-minded answer. Thank you, Betty.
