Well, that was disgusting. I was secretly wishing someone would punch his Nazi lights out.

It’s always lovely to see wipipo discuss issues of racism with Black folks present as if they have no say in the matter.

No Black parents, teachers or scholars invited to Missouri hearing on teaching race

He said that like he’d not just practiced, but actually been waiting for a chance to say it.

Considering that this is literally the one thing that republicans will admit is real, actual racism, it’s amazing how casually it’s dropped.

But there always nasty slightly younger bigots waiting for his chair.

So very true, but it appears to be getting less crowded under there.

As I posted on Twitter, I’m surprised he got past the first ‘g’ without somebody percussively relieving him of his consciousness.

Tarrant, huh? As a Birmingham native who has spent more time than I would like in neighboring Tarrant (but having lived away for a couple of decades now) I can say: yep, sounds about right.

His defense is that he was letting people know what the mayor had called councilwoman Freeman:
“It is ok for me to repeat it because as I said before, I wanted everybody to know what the mayor had said. He said it in a derogatory manner, I said it so that people would know what the mayor said,” Bryant said.
It is unclear what the mayor said that the racist idiot is referring to, but regardless it doesn’t excuse him in any way. And he didn’t say it in the context of talking about the mayor but as justification for his wife’s racism. So basically doubling down on a “Black people say it so I can too” defense of his racism

I get the impression that the n-word is used quite frequently in that household.
