Florida state Sen. Frank Artiles (R) has resigned after he used a racial slur while speaking to a pair of black colleagues during a private conversation.
Artiles submitted his resignation letter on Friday, The Associated Press reported. His resignation is effectively immediately.
The move comes four days after he used the N-word to described how state Senate President Joe Negron was elected GOP leader.
Still though, i don't think the guy from Florida is in the category of the other two. I don't even think he was trying to be racist. He just thought he was being funny.
Allen made an ass of himself, and he wasn't even under the influence of alcohol. LOL
Yeah, i remember that one. Ouch.

I was a teenager when George Allen made that comment. Either he is really stupid, really bigoted, or both.

It isn't funny though. And said person should have known better than that. If said person truly doesn't know better, there is a problem there.
