>
> Dear Dr. R L White, Head of the Atlanta Chapter of the NAACP,
>
> My name is Mike. I am 27, and I am neither a member of your
> organization nor a resident of Atlanta. Normally I wouldn't bother you,
> but then I came across this article, and it compelled me to write.
>
> Since I am white, I am going to tread carefully, so as not to offend
> your gentle sensibilities. But, Dr. White, you are a dumb azz.
> ;
> Speaking for white people everywhere, let me fill you in on something.
> This case was not a race issue. It was about killing dogs. And if
> there is one thing people don't stand for, regardless of race, it's
> killing dogs. You compared it to deer hunting. Again, Dr. White, you
> are a dumb azz. When was the last time a deer greeted you at the door
> when you got home from work? Or curled up next to you and gently
> nuzzled in to take a nap? Dogs are pets, you moron. They aren't meant
> to be killed for sport. The failure to make this distinction only makes
> you look more stupid.
>
> Sorry, I lost my temper there.
>
> Here's the thing, Dr. White. The reason people were outraged by this
> was because he killed dogs. If Ben Roethlisberger or Brett Favre had
> done it, the reaction would have been the same, I guarantee you. The
> difference is, had Ben Roethlisberger or Brett Favre done this, you
> wouldn't see white supporters rallying behind them, proclaiming he was
> innocent in the face of mountains of damning evidence, supporting him
> regardless of the outcome. Let me let you in on a secret about white
> people; when one of our own makes us look bad, we condemn him and disown
> them. I suggest you adopt a similar policy If your group's mission is
> truly to advance "colored" people (your word, not mine) you'd
> disassociate from the idiots in your race. It can't go wrong, trust me.
>
> Anyway, Dr. White, I don't want this to come off as racist, because it
> isn't. Michael Vick is a despicable person who happens to be black.
> The sooner you realize that, the less of a dumb azz you'll look like.
>
> Sincerely,
