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."

I love how both of those nigger's ignorance of black holes prompted that one to make TWO actual racially charged remarks, and no one held him accountable like they would have held the white guy accountable if he actually did make a racially charged remark in the first place. Then, after the comment was explained by over half the room, that other one had the audacity to still demand an apology from the only actual victim of a racist remark in that room. THAT is nigger privilege right there, that white guy would be out of a job and shamed at the podium before a press conference if he was in their position.

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. In America, the weakest links all seem to be Democrats.
