http://www.addictinginfo.org/2015/05/27/kansas-councilman-screams-black-ngger-btch-go-back-to-baltimore-at-teen-girl-video/Feeling bad about almost hitting his car, she apologized, but then Stites went off on Chatmon in the most horrendously racist way possible. He proceeded to then roll down his window, calling her a Black n*gger b*tch, and told her that she should go back to Baltimore.
After the incident, Chatmon told her parents what happened and everyone was extremely upset, but it wasnt until the family later realized that the man who was raging at her was none other than a city councilman that they became livid.
Chatmons family, as well as the community and the Bonner Springs NAACP chapter, is calling for Stites to resign. They dont want an obvious racist to sit on the city council, a council that is supposed to represent the will of the people.
Isn't that kind of redundant?

When whites do something wrong, it's never about race.
Don't believe me? Check out the comments when looking at crime stories. If a black person commits a crime, it's because of their race.
When white people commit crimes, race is never an issue.
Seeing this councilman go off on a racist tirade because of a near auto accident is hardly surprising.

I thought stuff like this only happened in the South?

(63,208 posts)Yeah, it's always the other person who does wrong by getting offended.
It's amazing how may layers of deniability and passive voice they can cram into one pseudoapology.
