Yahoo Story about Obama followed by horrible racist statements

Here is the story with the comments:

People are commenting with their real names. Idiot. This really makes me fearful of my fellow countrymen and the election in November.

(And no- posting this is NOT race baiting, DU Jury, it is reporting race baiting. I have been here for a long time, and that you hid my thread is ridiculous.)

1. Yahoo! comment sections are possibly the most vile, racist, disgusting comment sections...

...on the internet outside of maybe YouTube.

4. LOL, I thought it was only me...

Whew! I thought this country was totally out of whack when viewed only by the Yahoo comment sections...now I know it's not just me. Thanks!

I'm thinking seriously of changing my main email account from them, but I guess it's not their fault that so many cowardly "Keyboard Rangers" infest their site. Hmmm, Yahoo...the name actually is self fulfilling...perhaps that's why.

3. Yep coming out of the closet daily = real names etc.

Many knew they were there hiding/muttering among themselves and anyone who would listen but no more - cant say if this is good or bad really as a lot of PollyAnnas need to know this exists and it is not a figment of minorities/alternative lifestyler's imagination .........

or they just have a chip on their shoulder about being 'different' and there is nothing to worry about! No one cares anymore and laws protect everyone (not ) now .
Well as you can see there is a lot to be worried about same as it was 2, 15,or 50 years ago etc.

It is all bad really of course, but now coming out of the closet you can see the ugliness in all it's racist glory and amazed how many new folks want to jump on the wagon with them now.

you got that right>This really makes me fearful of my fellow countrymen and the election in November.
