This is where I live. It’s a blood red state with a blood red legislature and no regard for anyone who is not a white “christian” male. Thank you for what you do.

Not a bit surprised. Grandfather was from Indiana. He used Racial Slurs. He had a photo of the house he grew up in circa nineteen-twenty. On the back he'd written, "Now Occupied By Blacks."

A. Who Cares.

B. What?

C. Was 'Occupied By Whites' An Option?

D. Once, in the car, he commented on the BOOMING BASS from a stereo as coming "from these coons up here."

"That's Not A Nice Word, Daddy!" my mother snapped. I felt like I was going to start crying and wanted to go home. Just another shopping drag wheeling his perverted ass around Walmart. He lived to be 97. They just never die. I wouldn't be surprised if his father was IN the Indiana KKK. He also couldn't be left alone with little girls. Yes, you can be all kinds of an asshole, why choose.

He grew up in Indiana in the Twenties. So, yeah, he picked that up. Home Grown. And yes, my grandmother, raised in Washington State was Less Racist. Should we go to court over it?

REESE APOLOGIZE? For what? For hearing racist talk and commenting on it but not having audible evidence to prove it? Good God, the amount of 'Shit That Goes Down' that 'can't be proven' is ENORMOUS, Life Time Wide. EVERY WHERE. Can you hook people up to a machine, ask them if they are Racist or used Racal Slurs and the computer has it? Good luck with that technology.

A lot of people are assholes, not many will admit it.

Apologize to The State? Kiss My Fat Ass!
