Does anyone remember Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price? He was the Black guy who went nuts when one of his White colleagues suggested that the local traffic ticket collections department operated like a black hole.
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.”
Other county officials quickly interceded to break it up and get the meeting back on track. TV news cameras were rolling, after all.

So, where’s the part about the FBI raid? I don’t want to click on some unknown blog to read about it.
Hopefully, price is about to get “corn holed” in prison. No one else deserves it more.
You are not seeing the part about the FBI raid because the poster had to be kind of niggardly about how much to excerpt.
Is Mr. Price a long time gadfly on the local Dallas scene?
Is he the same guy who has acted up like this for many a moon and occasionally makes the national news?
There’s very little about the FBI raid, I don’t know why it made it into the the title. It’s a catalog of this guys raciest behavior.
I believe one in the same.
The formatting sucks and I didn’t want to clean it up..
Lazy Sunday morning...
Especially, the judge. Must be a hack pol, or related to one. Usually
found in MA.
Morgan Freeman must be sad that his Science Channel
endeavor doesn't appeal to that portion of 12% of the American
population.
Well done!
It appears to be from a DFW CBS affiliate.
"According to the warrants, authorities were looking for written communications involving several high profile people including : Senator Royce West, former Dallas Cowboy Pettis Norman and consultant Kathy Nealy. Police were also looking for communications with businesses such as : American Airlines, American Healthcare & Perot Systems."
Thanks for the link, Vet.
Try reading a book, Price. The intent is so obvious.
I don't like the term "white dwarf". It implies that white people are small and weak. See how idiotic that sounds?
It reminds me of the feminists who did not like the word, "history" because it was sexist. As in "His-story". These types are always proclaiming how intelligent and enlightened they are. They sound like fools.
I expect 0 will be on TV soon proclaiming that the FBI “acted stupidly”. ;-)
Same, same, been around for years. DFW’s local equivalent of Charlie Rangel and other racist, white hating blacks on the national level.
