No, we CAN'T all just get along

CLEVELAND — This old timber town of almost 8,000 in East Texas has become a tinderbox that some residents fear could be ignited now by recent charges of racism, political chicanery and child rape.

Even before the alleged gang rape of an 11-year-old girl divided Cleveland, tensions were already simmering here. Accusations of racism had been flying over the looming recall election of three black City Council members. Those targeted for removal have expressed concerns that the election could be racially motivated, while their opponents accuse them of mismanagement and squandering tax dollars.

Meanwhile, Houston community activist Quanell X rolled into town on Thursday evening and held a rally questioning the ongoing investigation that has resulted in 18 black men and boys in Cleveland being charged with sexually assaulting the 11-year-old Hispanic girl.

He said some of those arrested were guilty and should be punished but not all. "We do not want someone with a malicious racist motive to rid your community of an entire generation of black men," Quanell said.
'A bad mood'

First order of business, get this jerk out of town. He describes himself.

Quannell X? Must be a kin to Malcolm. I believe the feces will hit the fan in that town.

You try and try and the political types always play the race card. Have no idea how you will get around it.

Hopefully when those playing the "race card" come to grips with reality and mature as in grow up.

Racism in the USA is pretty much dead. Move on, accept responsibility for your actions, stop depending on hand-outs, and last but not least ??


Behave !
