Yes I said ignorant white people suck and I meant it.  I am white and I am not afraid to admit this.  I am not against any race, creed or color and feel everyone deserves their fair shot at everything in life.  If you are gay and want a job, you deserve it as long as you earn it and so on.  We could go through every example but you get my point.  I am writing this rant for many reasons but one recent story in particular.  [1] Montco Swim Club Sucks  So this swim club in Philly took money from a group called Creative Steps, Inc so that 65 children between the ages of 5 and 12 could join Valley Club.  They showed up, started swimming and started to hear the questions, “Why is there browns and blacks in our pool?”.  WHY?!?  Because they paid to be there just like you, you f***ing ignorant dumb s**t!  Here is an exact quote, “What are all of these black kids doing here?”.  What in the f**k are you doing asking that question and who gave you the right to ask it?!?  Here we are, 2009 and we still have ignorant morons running around shooting their mouths off.  By the end of the day for these kids and parents, this so called Valley Club gave the group their check back ($1,950 to be exact).  With this refund given to the group, that means these kids no longer have access to the club or pool.  With the explanation as to why the refund was given, space issues not race, the Valley Club of White F***ing Morons has started quite the racial storm in Philly.  I mean come on, what are you afraid of?  You afraid they might actually have fun and get along with the white kids?!?  You afraid your precious little white daughter might take a liking to a black boy?  I actually read this story and thought to myself, why?

Everyone knows the story of Tiger Woods.  If you do not know his story, maybe you should read about it.  When he joined the PGA, there was still golf courses he was not allowed to play at because they had specific rules about anybody that was not white and of white origin.  Since he came along, these courses have decided to open their minds and get with today’s society and allow other races to join and play their courses.  Yes, there is still some dumb-ass white golf courses in this World but for the most part it has not affected the average everyday man or woman.  I know we still have racial tensions and problems in this World but to actually tell a group of black and Hispanic kids get lost, white kids only…that is just sad and wrong.

Back tot he swim club, if space was the issue you are using then why in the hell did you take their money in the first place???  To me that sounds like a very sad excuse and a very quick reaction answer.  Step up and tell us the truth.  Admit you are a racist group and let the race war begin.  I am not saying we start an all out war against racism, but something has to be done about crap like this.  I especially do not think we need to hear from Jesse Jackson about this issue but I am sure he will at some point.  No offense Jackson, but you are a cause to some of our racism in the World.

Can’t we all just get along?  ;-)  I am proud of my stance on race and if you cannot say that then maybe it is time for you to change as well.

[2] Montco swim club accused of racial discrimination

Days before a Northeast Philadelphia day camp’s membership at a private suburban swim club was rescinded, several of the campers said they had heard racial remarks about themselves at the pool.

Parents and staff members of Creative Steps Inc. day camp are considering legal action against the Valley Club in Huntingdon Valley, said Alethea Wright, the camp’s executive director.

Sixty-five campers, kindergartners through seventh graders who are African American and Hispanic, arrived at the private swim club around 3:30 p.m. on June 29. It was their first visit to the club, but the camp had made arrangements for weekly trips on Mondays through Aug. 10.

While the campers were swimming, Wright said, three of them came up to her and said they had heard club members asking what African Americans were doing at the club.

Although the children were upset, Wright said, they stayed at the pool for an hour more to complete their session. She said that she approached club president John Duesler while events unfolded that day and that he seemed apologetic.

On July 3, Wright said, the camp’s $1,950 check in membership fees to the swim club was refunded, meaning the children no longer had access to the pool. She said Duesler gave no reason for the refund except that the membership no longer wanted the children at the pool.

Repeated attempts to reach Duesler, other club officers, and the club’s management yesterday were unsuccessful. NBC10, which first reported the story, said yesterday that Duesler had given the station the following statement: “There was concern that a lot of kids would change the complexion . . . and the atmosphere of the club.”

The club is not affiliated with the Huntington Valley Country Club, which today inadvertantly found itself a target of public rage.

“We’ve been getting a lot of nasty calls,” country club receptionist Karen Ojeda said.

Wright said she heard no racially charged comments when the campers were at the club but did hear a club member express displeasure that the children were at the pool. She said many parents made their children leave the pool after the campers arrived.

“There were no behavioral problems” with the campers, who were accompanied by eight Creative Steps staff members, Wright said. “They never gave a reason.”

Club member Bernadette Sinnott, 44, said that although she was not at the pool on June 29, she had heard the club took back the campers’ membership because of space issues, not race.

“I think they thought it was too crowded,” she said.

Sinnott was at the club yesterday with her son Brandon, 14, who said he was biracial and had never encountered racism at the pool.

The camp first contacted the club about membership after the New Frankford Community Y in the Frankford section of the city - where the children used to swim - closed last month because of lack of money. The club is about a 20-minute drive from the camp’s location at Devereaux and Summerdale Avenues in Northeast Philadelphia.

The campers swim at an indoor pool on Tuesdays and Thursdays at the Jewish Community Center in Philadelphia, but Wright said the camp wanted to get them to an outdoor facility as well. She said Girard College had offered its pool to the campers for the rest of the summer.

City Councilwoman Maria Quiñones-Sánchez, who represents the camp’s Northeast Philadelphia district, said the allegations were upsetting but not surprising.

“It is outrageous and unfortunately part of what we still confront day in and day out because of folks’ lack of understanding,” she said. “Once you cross the county line, it’s a whole different world.”

Several parents and the camp are looking into possible legal action against the club, said Staci Morgan, a Creative Steps board member and Philadelphia social worker.

Their options depend on whether the state Human Relations Commission has jurisdiction over the club’s operations, said Michael Hardiman, a lawyer with the commission. Organizations that are “distinctly private” do not fall under that jurisdiction.

Hardiman would not say whether the Valley Swim Club met the commission’s criteria for investigation.

The club includes more than 10 acres of land and a 110,000-gallon pool, according to its Web site, and is a private nonprofit organization chartered in 1954. A single membership is $395 per year.

So the owners have come forward and decided to plead their case on live TV to say this is not about race but rather safety.  Um, sorry you white devil bitch but I am not buying this made for TV apology and as far as your hubby is concerned, maybe a nice white hood would have suited him better for the interview.  I am sorry but they told you how many kids were coming but you still say it is about the fact you had no idea that many kids were coming.  *cough* BULLS**T! *cough*
