Welcome to post-racial 'Murka!
http://www.liberalamerica.org/2015/06/07/texas-racists-spray-paint-no-nggers-on-church-van-poison-black-familys-puppy/
The setting is Kaufman, Texas, and what happened is that a couple of Sunday nights ago, on May 31, someone decided they would leave a message on a van belonging to a church with a black pastor, John Weaver. The message of pure hate and ignorance they spray painted on the van was:
No N*iggers...
But these racist vermin were not quite finished terrorizing the Weaver family. They also took the time to poison their puppy, Ka-lo. Church member Margaret Pipkins remarks:
The most hurtful thing is, they killed the puppy. An innocent puppy.

Grotesque. My prediction: LEO will find & prosecute these punks, just as in Jasper.

It may be wrong and perpetuate further violence, but I wouldn't shed any tears at the news.

And forced to attend classes at Spelman or Morehouse (depending on their gender) for ONE week. They also have to live in the dorms, and eat in the cafeteria.
Forcing them to live, eat, sleep with black people would be the WORST thing in the WORLD for these folks.
