Polic Officer Kills Man Who Killed K-9 - The letters to the editor in the aftermath of this incident are, with I think two exceptions, positively appalling. This isn’t the first time Pittsburgh police have committed brutality against black people in the city burroughs, either.

A Pittsburgh police officer shot and killed a 19-year-old Allentown man who shot and killed a K-9 dog during a confrontation in Mount Oliver last night.

A crowd of angry onlookers, including the victim’s family, quickly gathered at the scene in the 1600 block of Arlington Avenue. Dozens of officers also arrived on the scene, some with K-9 dogs, to help keep the crowd under control.

When the Pittsbrugh Post-Gazette ran coverage of the funeral, angry (bigoted) readers wanted to know why there wasn’t more coverage of Ulf, the K-9 dog’s funeral. Someone wrote on topix.com, “Thank [the cops] for taking out the trash.” Apparently, when a 19-year old black man has a prior criminal record and has a gun, he’s no longer considered human. Because we all know that trained pets are worth more than black people!

Greenwood Councilman Calls Mississippi State Senator ‘Ole N*gger’ - John Lee, one of the city’s two white Republican councilmen, circulated an email to 15 of his colleagues in which he referred to David Jordan by the racial slur, saying:

“had a long talk after the city council meeting … with David Jordan. The ole n*gger can’t understand why the black’s (sic) continue to shoot one another. I told him he needed to spend less time with the old people at the Voters League and more time with the young people about getting an education.”

One of the email recipients leaked the letter to the press. The other white Republican councilman in Greenwood, John Jennings, continues to defend Lee’s remarks.

Thanks to Jack and Jill Politics for bringing the second story to light.

And Southerners wonder why everyone else thinks the majority of them are racist, maximalist whackjobs.

Yes, it is just what it sounds like. A cool person over at the livejournal discussion group debunkingwhite (please read their info page before you make assumptions about what their name means) explains it much more succinctly than I can at this hour, so let me just link you there:

Europeans = Native Americans???

This makes me so angry, but it’s just one in laundry list of things that have pissed me off today. I need God to give me strength to see the inherent worth of humanity right now, because it is just not happening on its own here.

What’s that you say? Poverty-stricken black people being part of medical experiments without their knowledge? It’s not like that has happened before! *cough* TUSKEEGEE *cough*

The AP first reported on this two days ago, and the only major newspaper I can see reporting on it is the Baltimore Sun. The Post-Gazette reprinted the AP article, though, so it’s bound to be more widespread than how it looks on Google News.

I just…there are no words. UGH.

I’m back. Again. It occurs to me that even though absolutely no one reads this blog, it won’t hurt to keep it updated. So here goes another try.
