Dallas County Meeting Turns Racial
by Kevin Krause (Dallas News)
A special meeting about Dallas County traffic tickets turned tense and bizarre this afternoon.
County commissioners were discussing problems with the central collections office that is used to process traffic ticket payments and handle other paperwork normally done by the JP Courts.
Commissioner Kenneth Mayfield, who is white, said it seemed that central collections “has become a black hole” because paperwork reportedly has become lost in the office.
Commissioner John Wiley Price, who is black, interrupted him with a loud “Excuse me!” He then corrected his colleague, saying the office has become a “white hole.”
That prompted Judge Thomas Jones, who is black, to demand an apology from Mayfield for his racially insensitive analogy.
Mayfield shot back that it was a figure of speech and a science term. A black hole, according to Webster’s, is perhaps “the invisible remains of a collapsed star, with an intense gravitational field from which neither light nor matter can escape.”
Other county officials quickly interceded to break it up and get the meeting back on track. TV news cameras were rolling, after all.
Be respectful of others and their opinions. Inflammatory remarks and inane leftist drivel will be deleted. It ain’t about free speech, remember you’re in a private domain. My website, my prerogative.
If you can't handle using your real email address, don't bother posting a comment.
Just what did they think a black hole was?
Absolute morons

July 8th, 2008 at 5:42 pmCommissioner John Wiley Price, what a fucking Einstein.
July 8th, 2008 at 5:54 pmCommissioner John Wiley Price wmust have gone to a public momopoly school that did not teach science. He’s just s stupid tard.
July 8th, 2008 at 6:10 pmlooks to me that maybe either definition is correct..in this case…
July 8th, 2008 at 6:11 pmObviously I did two since I cannot spell.
July 8th, 2008 at 6:12 pmHow did these people make it into office? That’s a term even a grade school student should know.
July 8th, 2008 at 6:20 pmSo… In the interest of being politically correct, will the Black Panthers be changing their name to the White Panthers?
July 8th, 2008 at 6:29 pmJohn Wiley Price has been a race pimping, hatemongering POS for as long as I can remember. A complete moron, he and his ilk have practically ruined the town.
There was a time, about 25 years ago, when I would have told you Dallas the best big town in America.
Now, it’s a piece of crap that needs to be flushed and John Wiley Price with it.
July 8th, 2008 at 6:31 pmThere are black holes and then there are black hoes.
Both are nuisances.
And, I suppose either could be a source of lost papers.
What I’m wondering is how these nappy-headed retards made it through of law school.
July 8th, 2008 at 6:34 pmWhite liberals have only one go-to move in any given circumstance,
the overly sensitive, outraged, temper tantrum.
Black liberals have that same single move but,
they spice it up with a large side order of white guilt.
(150 years ago black people were slaves, and its STILL the white man’s fault!)
Fuck all liberals!
July 8th, 2008 at 7:03 pmEven the black ones!
I am from Dallas and I am not surprised. They are running ads all over Texas to recruit new police officers. The Dallas city council has trouble relating to one another. Some feel they talk above their constituents, some below. Most can’t even think, much less speak correctly.
July 8th, 2008 at 7:20 pmReminds me of an old joke……..
Where do cousins come from?

Aunt holes!!!!!!!
Thank Goodness the audio didn’t crap out.
Then “white noise” would have ensued.
The carnage would have been monumental.
White man caused hurricanes, white men inventing new viruses to exterminate people of color and white men bombing buildings that kill thousands of Americans.

July 8th, 2008 at 8:25 pmsounds like the idiot libtard democrat who used the word Niggartdly in front of an obviously retarded black colleague.
July 8th, 2008 at 8:28 pmFuck. We are doomed.
July 8th, 2008 at 8:38 pmI too grew up in Dallas. This pos has been race-baiting about as long as Obama has been alive.
July 8th, 2008 at 8:46 pmUnfortunately, as with everything else in this country, these types usually get their way because of white guilt AND the fear of being labeled a racist.
Another thing I remember about this pos is that, in the early 90’s, he and another race-baiter started a big ado about how it was racist that liquor and cigarette companies advertised more in the inner city than in the ‘burbs.
Even in high school I realized that businesses advertise where they can sell the most product. Pretty simple stuff. Also, the majority of ‘burbs back then were dry counties.
Nevertheless, I remember quite a few people backing them up in this argument lest they be labeled racist…
July 8th, 2008 at 8:49 pmAt least he didn’t say the office was being niggardly about doing its work….
July 8th, 2008 at 9:58 pmWell I gotta brown hole price and jones can kiss!
July 8th, 2008 at 11:57 pmLOL, this is part of Obamaramadingdong’s “CHANGE” package.
Everything black or referred to as black will have to CHANGE.
This is the race baiters dream, get ready for it my brothers & sisters.
July 9th, 2008 at 1:40 amWe have found the mother load of ignorance!!!
July 9th, 2008 at 3:11 amWell folks get use to this crap from Blacks as they sense they are closer to taking over this country. I grow tired of having to hear black folks whine about EVERYTHING. If Obama wins in November than wont we become the reverse South Africa where a Black minority run the country and oppose the white majority?? I doubt it since they cant even run a small town like Detriot.
July 9th, 2008 at 3:26 amYou guys are WHITEwashing this. You have to be culturally sensitive. One man’s black hole may be precious to him while another man may just think of it as, er, a black hole.
July 9th, 2008 at 6:40 amAmericans had best start rejecting PC-speak or like the Biblical story of Tower of Babel we will lose our ability to speak with each other.
Enough is enough! I, for one, am returning to calling “a spade a spade” — a digging implement for the PC-dummies — simply because someone listening might be too stupid to understand the English language, or recognise a phrase of speech that has been used for hundreds of years.
July 9th, 2008 at 11:03 amSomeone should tell Judge Thomas Jones and Commissioner John Wiley Price that a mind is a terrible thing to waste. How do guys like these end up in the positions they are in? They have demonstrated how ignorant they are so how can they effectively serve the people of their district? Oi!!!
