Chick-fil-A CEO and son of founder ‘shines’ shoes of black rapper; says whites must repent for their racism

I say BS to this elitist viewpoint which just happens to be way over the top in the PC arena

But what about the black on black crime, the black genocide aka abortion, it's peculiar that the elite don't like to talk about any of that. I have a feeling they don't want to embrace anything black, at least up close.

Editor’s note: This article deviates from Sun-Times practice by spelling out a racial slur — an exception made after the reporter and her editors concluded that spelling the word conveys the true pain of the racism the subject experienced.

The past few weeks have been a pretty “poignant moment” for Toni Preckwinkle.

What a racist statement that is. WTF is wrong with those people?

Chicago Fire Department still dominated by white males, aldermen told. Sorry folks, I want to see a color-blind, bias free city. Keeping stats on what color somebody is ..... BS.

Of the city’s 4,767 firefighters and paramedics, 65.2% are white, 16.6% are African-American and 15.9% are Hispanic. The department also is over 90% male.
