Republican Woman Writes Column: "you black men might be better off at home after a certain hour."

[David__77]

From the Sacramento Bee:

A columnist for a weekly paper in Rancho Murieta, a gated community southeast of Sacramento, drew social media condemnation Friday after suggesting that black men should stay in their houses after dark in the wake of the Stephon Clark shooting.

"Police have to be careful not to overreact, and you black men might be better off at home after a certain hour," columnist Marcia Courson wrote in her most recent piece for The River Valley Times, a community newspaper owned by Herburger Publications.

" (W)e need to ask ourselves before overreacting or advocating reduction of these shootings — Do we really understand why a shooting occurred?" Courson wrote in another part of the column.

1. This woman thinks Rancho Murieta should be a Sundown Town.

What is wrong with some people?

This is the mind set decent people are dealing with; there is a large percentage of people who have irrational fears of anyone different. I don't know how we will ever change this. No matter how many laws are changed, you can't change the way people think.

2. Gosh, that's right up there with telling ladies to be careful how they dress. Why is

it always the victims fault? Why do they have to bend over to change their lives?

4. Those are words from the pre civil rights era.

I lived in Texas in the late 60s and almost every town around had a big billboard at the city limits that warned black people to go elsewhere. The locals really believed every negative stereotype about POC and there were unspoken rules that only applied to them. It was rank discrimination, and even when the civil rights act tried to stop the hate, it was so deeply entrenched in the culture that it just couldn't be eradicated. Now, here we are in 2018 and it's as if nothing has changed with this racist woman who is reluctant to see any "reduction of these shootings".

Stop the hate and call her out, then run her out!
