[Ghoulish Delight]

For what it's worth, I was going to let the comment pass. I've been more angry over this than I've been over anything in a long time and I'm not even directly affected, so I can't fathom the magnitude of anger felt by someone at whom this act of bigotry has been directly leveled. So while I found it hateful, bigoted, misdirected and wrong, at least the original comment came from honest emotion.

It was the series of insincere fumbling apologies, once again, that offended me more. If you had owned your anger instead of made excuses for it, my reaction would have been different. But even having had time to cool down and think about it, the best you could come up with was, "I'm sorry I said it out loud, but I have no shame for continuing to hold these racist thoughts." It was ugly.

That's the last I'll say on the subject.
