Just when I thought I was out they pull me back in. ~ Michael Corleone

I am still getting comments on my previous posts about Sophia Salva and the two storm troopers who failed to follow procedure, and ultimately contributed to the miscarriage of the only innocent party in the fucked up mess . To be honest I was prepared to let the recent news of the final decision to fire these two retards go. I didn't post when the news hit, I thought I had covered my thoughts on the issue pretty well. Then I get the following comment from :Terry

"I hope Ms. Salva makes and wins her case as quickly as possible so she can move on with her life. What Ms. Salva was doing is absolutely relevant. Justice is NOT RESERVED LIKE A HOTEL ROOM for people who are doing what you think they should have been doing. If we were to Your forefathers made it quite clear that justice is a human right - and while they didn't determine Africans as fully human until just before folk "like you" were born, I am completely comfortable with her prevailing - which would only be base ethics and then going on with her life clean and sober now which it appears she is. We love and respect you Ms. Salva, and keep doin' what you're doing. If "First Lady" Betty Ford, wife of a U.S. President could get high in the White House, and ultimately found and chair one of the largest addiction clinics in the world, you can certainly advocate for folk who get high who don't have the luxury of having tax payers paying for you to be driven around in a limo".

I clicked on Terry's name and found this website , and by god it's a dandy. She is a real radical (heh). Inspired by the Black Panthers, and a self proclaimed lesbian, yet contemptuous of her non black sisters, and white males in general. You can read and enjoy some of the most sanctimonious, contrived , bullshit to come down the pike in a long , long , time. You can book her for a motivational seminar, if your motivation is to hate anyone not of your race. Oh, and don't forget to buy a T shirt or bumper sticker, because she is just in it for the LOVE. So in furtherance of "The cause", here is my open letter to Terry , hope you all enjoy it as much as she will loathe it, and apparently me, for the crime of being a white man with an opinion.

Dearest Terry,

I just wanted to clarify a couple of wrong points in your comment regarding my Sofia Salva post. I never stated that Salva didn't have a case, in fact in the 3 previous posts I have made about this case , I was pretty clear and succinct in this area. But you missed that part, no doubt too preoccupied with the fact that some middle aged white devil had the audacity to say anything negative about saint Sofia. If you read my previous gems, relating to this case , or my many posts on crime and the disparity in sentences dolled out to persons of color, you might want to reconsider your left handed accusations that Im just some racist redneck from the Midwest. But that's not how you roll, is it?

As to your ascertion that my forefathers were of the attitude that folks of african ancestry were less than human, I'm afraid I am going to have to take exception to that remark as well. My forefathers are of Dutch, German, and Irish bloodlines, not a founding father, or slave holder in the bunch. Hell, they never set foot on this soil until a few years before the Oklahoma land rush. So I'm afraid you have erred in your racist rhetoric that all white folks were former slave owners dating back to the founding of this country. That being said I am of European dissent, which to your twisted line of non-thinking makes me as guilty as a 19th century sugar cane plantation owner.

Your contention that being black and being a woman somehow qualifies Salva as some latter day martyr and symbol of "persecution", is the single most idiotic thing to come out of your race baiting mouth. Salva is no more a good person by virtue of her ethnicity and what transpired , than was Rodney King. Were they mistreated? Yes. Does that automatically make them great people? Fuck no. Before you get your Erika Badu headdress all in a bunch , let me clarify a couple of points . Salva had her other children taken from her because she was a shitty mother and a piss poor person. It had nothing to do with color or gender, you dolt. It had everything to do with lacking the basic love and concern for the welfare of the lives she was responsible for. She was dicking around at a liquor store , forging temporary tags, and not, making copies of Alice Walker poems. My point is , once again she was neglecting a life that she was responsible for. The cops were as wrong as Richard Simmons striped shorty shorts, they lost their jobs, and set the city up for a lawsuit. I've got no problem with either of those things. They were probably racist as well, and frankly , the KCMO police department is better off without them, and anyone who thinks like them.

The differences between you and I are so vast and varied that I cant begin to touch on all of them. The biggest difference is that I don't scream racism every time someone of a different ethnicity says something about someone white, especially if they never made an issue of said whiteness. You on the other hand are nothing more than a wanna be Angela Davis who screams racism, sexism , or homophobia every time you open your pie hole. You do a disservice to your people, and you should be ashamed.

It is people like you my Nubian princess who give true humanitarians and real voices for change a bad name. You dole out your blend of race baiting rhetoric seasoned with pseudo victimization , and people who think like you, lap it up like cats to cream. You are a black version of David Duke. The only good white people in your limited view are the ones who have no balls, pun intended, and buy in to your bullshit rather than offend you by having a different opinion. Well it's a great idea, Im just the wrong guy to try it on.

Here is the long and short of what comprises you as a writer/activist, and why your shit is so thin it's transparent. You love racist/sexist white men, because without them , you wouldn't have a platform to spread your wacky horse shit. So when you stumble across my blog about Salva you immediately call me out as racist, even though I never made a single derogatory remark about Salvas race. You were so frothing at the mouth over the thought of dressin down whitey , that you clearly didn't bother to read the entire post, or previous posts, or anything else I wrote. All of your websites proclamations of love and empowerment proved in that instant to be nothing more than lip service. You attacked me based on the color of my skin and not the content of my writing, hypocrite.


Here in Midtown Kansas City I am all about equality. I don't consider color, sexual orientation, religion or politics. I don't adhere to your philosophy, that pigmentation of the skin exempts you from criticism, or pigeon holes you to one particular stereotype or another. If you say or do something that I feel like waxing philosophical on, I do it. If you are a scum bag, a whack job or a retard, I have no problem pointing that out. I've been called all of those things and more, and it was probably a good call. What I am not, is a pretentious , douchette hiding under the guise of being persecuted, and pimping out t shirts and new age / pseudo radical poppycock. So call me what you will, but imply that I'm racist by virtue of being white , and this is what you get. In closing, I would normally say "Blow Me", but I guess that's out of the question, all things considered.

Best Wishes,

M.M.
