Their own private Oklahoma.


Sometimes, I feel sorry for racists, and Fred here captures part of why.
It takes a lot of energy to avoid information that could be positive about people of color and to discount the evidence of your eyes. It takes a lot of energy to make up reasons why life is so hard for the white man and to think up ways to discount all missives from reality land. It takes a lot of energy that could be used to help others, to be creative, to have fun. So I feel sorry for them.
