Comments on: Did Toledo vote based on race? The numbers tell the story…

I agree with you that racism seems to exist more here than in other places, including the South. Unfortunately it all to often goes both ways.

There is much more racism here in Ohio than in any southern state. Sujay, have you been to any small towns in Ohio? like pembervile or grand rapids? No black folks there. You know why? Because they would never be hired.

In the south there is real interaction between the races and you would know that if you had a clue.

Segregation is a way of life in the north, and one indication is the private schools and in particular, the failure of tps.

I don’t have time for the never ending drama, of course I don’t support it, and if he makes a direct insult to a person who comments on the blog? I’ll edit it. If he makes a comment directed at an entire group of people? I think you are intelligent enough to know the difference and to gauge his credibility as a commenter based on the positions he takes.

Sujay Says:

“Lisa (#64) – Judgmental? That’s fine. So is just about every regular in visitor to GCJ. My point is that it’s not bigoted or racist to insult southerners.”

Do you you support this Lisa? do you support sujay insulting every southerner?

I’m tired of you doing this – it’s very simple, you make repeated insults directed to people on the blog – that’s enough to edit your comments. I’m not going to keep some kind of a scoring system as far as who you have insulted and who you have not. You have insulted people, which means as I wrote about, anyone who makes repeated insults to members of the blog will find them edited, this doesn’t mean you get one freebie insult per person, when you get to the point where you have had your comments edited, which you have? That’s it. Hopefully now that is clear, because this is really getting old and we have gone through this with you in moderation and out of moderation enough times that we should never have to have this discussion again…

Sorry Lisa, let me link to a previous comment of relevance to sujay. Replace freidman with sujay, in this case.

Ya know Friedman, I read your #30 post way back when it first went up. I’m glad Lisa left it up for all to see who the real bigot is…

Gotta wonder from your rant just how many branches are even in YOUR tree…

Someone who on a regular basis feels it necessary to make personal insults as a part of their comments to those who comment here.

And you just did, as well as you have in the past to others. We’ve had this discussion on and off blog, it’s fairly simple, though it seems for some reason to be something that you want to keep addressing. Don’t call people names, stay on topic and you won’t have any comments edited.
