    Now I've seen it all!!

    This is sad!!! (or funny, I can't decide)

    "A comment about Dallas County's central collection system for tickets ignited a controversy when Judge Thomas Jones claimed Commissioner Kenneth Mayfield's phrase about a "black hole" was racially insensitive."

    Get a frikan life man, it's a scientific term.

    I love the guy who asks for an apology, honestly, dude, go jump off a cliff.

    LMAO

    Awesome. Making "black hole" into a racist issue is, in fact, racist.

    True, Andrew.

    That is the most racist thing to do. Find racism in a scientific term.

    I've seen some ridiculous PC stuff in my time (I remember someone getting into controversy for using the nonracial term "™™™™™rdly" due to its similar sound to the other word), but this tops the list.

    This guy takes it a step further:

    "So if it's 'angel food cake,' it's white. If it's 'devil's food cake,' it's black. If you're the 'black sheep of the family,' then you gotta be bad, you know. 'White sheep,' you're okay. You know?"

    I agree with Andrew- by making these things racist, it is racist. It's like the pot calling the kettle...well, you know.

    Hopefully no one tells him the theory about a white hole being on the other side
