Let the sinless throw first scone

So let’s see. If you’re keeping score, you can say “whitey,” “cracker,” “hillbilly,” “red neck,” and “honky” when speaking mockingly of a Caucasian person, but you cannot say the “n” word, nor can you even spell it out, when speaking mockingly of an African-American person.

I say there’s enough hypocrisy to go around on both sides.

When you seek to crush someone and do it wearing a cloak of righteousness — and some wearing a gleeful sneer — you, the accuser, are no less ignorant than the accused. Those who withhold forgiveness are themselves doomed to a life of bitter unforgivenness.

When will someone in the anti-Paula Deen camp lead us to a better land where fallen people find redemption, not destruction?
