This is just too fucking unbelievable, but I guess it was bound to happen sometime.

Seems like some douchebag County Commisioner in Dallas has taken offense to the scientific terminology "black hole".

Seriously, you can make this shit up:

Douchebag

Surely, there are more important things this guy could be doing, say, like resigning...

Do we really need to resort to this kind of name calling? You know, we're all in this together. Hence the "One Nation, Indvisible" thing.

This guy is taking offense to the term "black hole".

He is, indeed, a douchebag...

Here's the text from the piece:

Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price is sticking to his comments that the term "black hole," which a colleague used, is racist.Price also says language such as "angel food cake" and "devil's food cake" are also racially insensitive...

MyFox Dallas | Commissioner Defends Position That 'Black Hole' is Racist Term

There is not enough in the story to make any determination, since the text and context of the comment is not included in this..."story".

The link in post #6 is working fine for me...

nevermind..my script blocker was blocking the video.
Now that I have seen the video....this should be on the The Daily Show...I mean this is f*cking hilarious.

Evidently Dallas County doesn't have the highest standards for its public officials. These people are just special.

Have I been, somewhat, unclear?

Yes, the man is a douchebag...

this goes down with "niggardly".......the inability for some humans to parse fact. First of all black isn't even a color. What about that? Maybe hes a non colored person, yea we
will now call him uncolored, whoops "un" can mean non which means nothing.......in any event, this kind of thing, its defenders or practioners, in a sane world would be laughed off, but since this country isn't sane anymore, who knows? The guy is a jackass.
