Dallas County meeting turns racial ("black hole" now a "racist" term)

A special meeting about Dallas County traffic tickets turned tense and bizarre this afternoon.

County commissioners were discussing problems with the central collections office that is used to process traffic ticket payments and handle other paperwork normally done by the JP Courts.

Commissioner Kenneth Mayfield, who is white, said it seemed that central collections "has become a black hole" because paperwork reportedly has become lost in the office.

Commissioner John Wiley Price, who is black, interrupted him with a loud "Excuse me!" He then corrected his colleague, saying the office has become a "white hole."

That prompted Judge Thomas Jones, who is black, to demand an apology from Mayfield for his racially insensitive analogy.

Mayfield shot back that it was a figure of speech and a science term. A black hole, according to Webster's, is perhaps "the invisible remains of a collapsed star, with an intense gravitational field from which neither light nor matter can escape."

John Wiley Price is widely known as an idiot.
Most of the city council is made up of idiots like him, that is why they cant get squat done.

I nominate the judge and the commissioner for the "Heads Up Award." In this case the newly declared "Heads Up the Black Hole" award! This is so unbelievable!

Price and Jones are ignorant fools.

"Black Hole" is a scientific term used to reference a region in space with a gravitational pull so powerful that not even light can escape.

This Orwellian "Diversity creates uniformity" groupthink BS is just another reason why I always...

Any black person who takes offense to the word “black” is a racist, and a pretty stupid one at that.

Yep.

The people who refuse to pull the lever for McCain are going to learn things the hard way once fools like Price and Jones dominate the Nation.
