An Arizona elementary school mural featuring the faces of kids who attend the school has been the subject of constant daytime drive-by racist screaming, from adults, as well as a radio talk-show campaign (by an actual city councilman, who has an AM talk-radio show) to remove the black student’s face from the mural, and now the school principal has ordered the faces of the Latino and Black students pictured on the school wall to be repainted as light-skinned children.

Someone linked me to that story yesterday, and I swear I had to keep scrolling back to the top of the page to make sure I wasn't reading The Onion.

Unbefvckinglievable. It's getting hard to know what to revile and protest against in Arizona nowadays. Can't they concentrate on one outrage at a time?

On a related note - my next move will be out of Orange County.

It should have the first fluttering around on the surface unable to fly due to being covered in oil.
