Ooohhh... There are all sorts of racial overtones to your example.
When removing the hearts and diamonds, are you insinuating that White Americans are richer and more caring?
What exactly do you mean by leaving the clubs with the spades?

"The Philadelphia Daily News would also like to apologize to Mumia Abu-Jamal. We are sorry you are not a white man convicted of murdering a Philadelphia policeman....""The Philadelphia Daily News would also like to apologize to black Philadelphia policemen that there are no white men in the city who are interested in killing them..."

There are white people in Philadelphia??????

I'm embarassed that so many murders are committed by black people. I live north of Philly - of course the crime stats are going to be heavily black, Philadelphia is heavily black.... if it were a mostly white area, there were be more whites committing crimes....... but just wait until winter - more whites in Philly kill each other over snow shoveling and/or parking in "their" shoveled spots........;^)

Maybe that's what the Daily News apology should have said:
"Dear readers, we're sorry it's not winter yet and the white folks haven't started killing each other over parking places on snowy days. Soon as they do, we'll write about them too. Just you wait!"
