Email Horrors

My Grandmother used to always quote Numbers 32:23. The later half of the verse basically says "Be sure your sins will find you out", meaning you will most suredly get caught if you pursue wrong doings. Seems this man never met my Grandmother . I don't have a problem with someone who is proud they're white or black, or blue all over, but when you mix two different ideas into one, that's where you start to look foolish. He says one group(all blacks)steal, etc., then states that they(possibly black leadership)brand them (white cops) racists if they (maybe insert "happen" here)to shoot a black gang member. If this man didn't harbor racist/bigot mentality, he would have left out the stealing part, and just complained that its hard to be a white cop, to do your job at times, when you get attacked at every corner when you deal with black perpetrators.

In this way, the focus would be on perpetrators, who happen to be black, and a cop, who happens to be white. It also doesn't help his case when there was other racial comments involved in the article as well. Character is often thought of as what your doing when no one is watching. Sometimes, our character presents itself in the darndest ways.
