Exactly. What kind of idiot editor would ever let something like this go out?

Is this grammar-nazi bait? I mean, how did this happen? Chinese keyboard maybe?

I don't mean to embarrass, but, you know, aim.

Contrarian was just typing with one hand because he was simultaneously fellating his dog while being reamed by his mom in plain view of a class full of six-year-old children.

Raunchy, but I should be able to say what I like. Of he doesn't like it, he soesn't have to read it.

Not sure what's more offensive: the original article, or the half-hearted indignation and forced apology on the hands of the newspaper. Can't anybody be honest anymore without having to sit down with the NAACP?

This man clearly is very ignorant of African-American history and his own history, and he's very angry," said Maxwell, who represents a district with large black and Asian populations


This lady sums up this mans little world.

If he could say that Africans are the only race that had 300 years of slavery, then he doesn't know Asian, European and for that matter, Earth History at all.
