plutherusMy nomination for the Ignorant Statement of the Month:
Heard on AM Radio when driving to work this morning. They were discussing the death penalty, and whether it should be abolished now that another hundred-some-odd death-row inmates have been proven to be innocent through DNA tests.
The caller was advancing the claim, which the host did not argue with, that the fact that all of the newly released people were Black is proof that the American judicial system is unfair and completely prejudiced... against Whites.
I'm not sure whether to be disgusted, amused, or terrified.
Maybe all three at once.
