I rarely disagree with rush, but I don’t think Cain said anything he needs to be ashamed of. I think perry was by far more racist in his Hispandering.

I would never hunt in a park with such an offensive name, if that is the story. Buying it and changing the name is acceptable, but even entering such a park is just distasteful to me.

They did not buy it. Perry's father leased it. It was, and I believe still is owned by a non-profit children's organization.

However, upon entering while they had leased it for hunting, the Perry family is reported to have painted over the slur and to have turned the rock upside down to further cover the rock at which time grass and weeds basically grew to cover the rock almost entirely, requiring it to be dug up to see the paint that had covered the saying.

The only question I still am hearing is whether the rock was painted and turned in 2007 or 2008.
