Once again a African-American person is using their race to explain their inappropriate actions.

As a white male I feel I have been discriminated against.
Up until thursday nights Council Meeting I thought the test was based on intelligence instead of race.
I guess I was wrong!
After Mayor Garner stated that African-Americans can't past the test, the standards need to be lowered.
So much for equal opportunity!
Mr. Mayor are you dealing the RACE CARD "from the bottom of the deck."
Ask yourself Chief Toran are you yourself a leader when you publicly show favoritism of one race over another?
You Sir, Mayor Garner staged a real performance at last thursdays Council Meeting. Looking forward to your next smoke a mirror show.
And you thought "RACE CARD" was just a METAPHOR...PLATINUM, Too!
Mr. Mayor you state you want a big man to carry "your butt" out of a fire.
Citizens want fireman smart enough to find our address, and save our families and property in a fire. Is this to much to ask for?
Freedom of Speech feels that Fire Chief Toran owes City Council President Larry Kochert an oplogy "in public" for his rude and obnoxious behavior.
And shame on you "Jimmy" for trying to make this a race issue!
You want to talk about rumors? How about facts! Jimmy you promised the Fire Dept. if they supported you in 2004 you would "not hire" Fire Chief Toran!
And Chief Toran would you like to discuss domestic violence?
We think it's very unfair that some people seem to have Race Cards while others don't appear to be dealing with a full deck.
Perhaps it's time that everyone in the Garner's Administration comes clean and shows their cards. Let's find out what these Race Cards are, who has them, and how they got them.
This is nothing more than a political ploy to get African-American votes!
Trump or Joker?
