Enough of Discrimination!!I've had it!!It COST us ALL!!
Jury: College Park discriminated in firing white official *| ajc.com
Recently a former director of College Park who was white, won a multi-million dollar against the city of College Park for firing him because he was white.This is SO wrong!!  Especially from people who have been discriminated against historically.Black people everywhere should be sick to their stomachs even as they are when it happens to them.The council members that made racial and derogatory statements need to be forced to step down by the residents of College Park.This did not have to happen.This is gonna cost the city MILLIONS of dollars.Anybody who supports this in elected officials is an idiot.

the trial uncovered emails from library heads saying "there are too many white faces around here"

That they fired him,and because they city has to pay millions of dollars fro an ignorant concil that is suppose to represent the people.The lawsuit was justified,but at the cost of the city,not the individual wallets those that are responsible. |

Sadly the people are responsible for electing incompetent leader like this, and they will probably keep re-electing them. |

You know the old saying.. everybody is racist. Just that in the past, one faction had all the guns.
Think about it.
