Racism turns a lot of persons off:

State (SC–ed.) Republican leaders said they do not think online racist jokes by party activists will have a long-term impact on the party’s ability to attract black voters and candidates. But political experts and Democrats disagree.

Twice this week Republican activists have apologized for racist humor.

What astounds me is that, after over half a century of the Civil Rights struggle, some white folks still haven’t figured out what kinds of words hurt other persons.

This is not an issue of “political correctness.” This is an issue of rude and bigoted behavior.

Bigotry is evil. Rudeness is, well, rude.

I say, “Keep it up, Republicans.” The better persons of good will know you, the less they like you.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
