I hear Utah is mostly white...

it's named after the Utah region of Sweden, after all.

How about reading the comments on anything? Comments sections of a YouTube video about garbage disposal installation turn into bitter race talk.

You're not wrong. Although it's not always race. Politics, religion, personal income, celebrities, parenting skills, cooking choices, entertainment outlets, fashion....the internet just loves to hate.

Made me think of this. Especially the 50 second mark

I hope this is not the case, but I too am getting the feeling this is a fabrication. I have searched and have not found any articles written by Kimberly Martin about Cam Newton. There is nothing on the web site she works for. and a google search of "Kimberly Martin Cam Newton" only gave responses related to this letter. 

I hope this is not a case of someone using race to get retweets. 

lmao you didn't hope that's not the case or you would have spent more than 0 seconds trying to find an easy to find article.

What kills me is this is literally over football. Not that this person has any right use such language or to say the things they said, but it's not like it's an article about how they were robbed or someone killed someone in their family. It's over Cam Newton. People are idiots

I told you what I Google and what the results were. I was also at work and did not have time to revise my search. Keep trying though. I am sure you will be able to make me into a racist if you work at it.

The people that thought racism was dead were just kidding themselves and just wanted to believe it. The fact is, racism will NEVER die..........EVER. It's a depressing thought, but we are never going to grow as a species because let's be frank here, most people are stupid, selfish, arrogant, and just downright hateful and those same people will continue to have offsprings. You can't combat stupiditiy and corruption.

lol you 'didn't have time' to revise your search but you sure had time to formulate this theory that it's a hoax and post about it here on the Huddle. Wonder which would have taken longer.

Dude, I was wrong and am glad that I was. I did a quick search found no results and made an impulse post about it.why do you insist on trying to make this into more than it was?

Because it was some victim blaming bullshit. Same sort of thing as the people here who shouted that the Darren Sharper thing was just gold diggers and he's totally innocent. It happens any time there's a case of racism, sexism, or any other ism. Some hero has to chime in and call it a hoax and call the victim a liar.

I simply posted that it was a possibility. I already admitted I was wrong. But you can stop with your veiled accusations of racism towards me. And comparing someone who was written a letter to someone who was drugged and raped it pretty shitty in and of itself.

Can we start also naming names of people who think racism is dead? As long as you have different races of innately flawed humans, guess what? Racism. 

But there seems to be a perpetually odd inordinate amount of angst over some saying it's dead when i think it's the contrary. 

And when i say names i mean here.

I won't even dignify this with a response... shameful and disgusting. #KeepPounding

Sad truth, this fool is only publicly saying what many many other people in this country say behind closed doors to their bigoted friends.
