Is this LA, Mississippi?

“In a moment of intense frustration and anger, I let the situation get the best of me and I hold myself accountable for these comments. For that I am sorry. The context of this conversation was concern over the redistricting process and concern about the potential negative impact it might have on communities of color. My work speaks for itself. I’ve worked hard to lead this city through its most difficult time,” Martinez said in a statement obtained by FOX 11 Los Angeles.

All good now, right?

Intersectionality is a bitch. Interesting the take on the racism.

I think they should resign. Totally inappropriate.

Great post.

Good she resigned as President of Council but should resign from council completely.

She won’t. She doesn’t have to.

That’s like going from Senate minority leader to just a senator. No real consequences whatsoever.

Picture of the kid in question and his adoptive father.

I guess she called the man (who is gay) a little bitch. And of course her “little monkey” comment. She said they are raising him like a little white kid and that the kid needs a beatdown.

Well, at least I can applaud her for going out in a flaming, epic, train wreck.

:rofl:

Phew. Man, I don’t even like to read this. Can’t imagine being a public figure and fixing my mouth to put a black person and a primate in the same sentence.

Annihilate her political career.
