Obama no help in woman's arrest

Jackson county is indeed filled with racists, not only racist, but astoundingly ignorant people in positions of authority. I'm Caucasian or white, whatever label you choose to put on me, it doesn't matter, as I have no hidden agenda here. I had up close and personal experience in Jackson county to know of injustices that go on. There was a time once a couple of years ago, that due to my occupation, I worked in close quarters with Jackson county officials, in a professional capacity, so I know from personal experience of what I speak. As far as Obama helping...well, as smart as our president elect his, I don't believe even he could help educate these backward people. No president from any era could.
It took many years to make them this embarrassingly ignorant, so I doubt the term(s) that any president serves could ever make them understand, even if they were smart enough to learn. It's deeply ingrained in them (the racism), and it's appalling to see it in action, you wouldn't believe it. I know I was so pleased when any and all contracts that my firm had with them was over. I have never been so glad to be out of the presence of uneducated, ignorant people in my life. I came home and told my wife that I thought I had died and gone back in time to the 1940's or 50's in term of the ideas and mindset of these people in Jackson county. Not even Obama or Bush can help this kind of ignorance. There's a lot more needed than just presidential intervention--my God that wouldn't even begin to touch the tip of the iceberg of ignorance of Jackson county officials.
I was ashamed to be standing with them and be thought of as one of them. They're a disgrace to other law enforcement agencies statewide and believe me, I'm not the only man in my department that thinks this way, other counties who have dealt with them concur. It's a running joke, sadly they're a laughing stock, but that's what happens when several from different counties join together at conferences, benefits & outings. Jackson county needs to become more forward thinking , to wake up and stop carrying old prejudices learned at the feet of their parents and grandparents. Just think what kind of children they are raising-the apple doesn't fall far from the tree-sad to say, they will be just like their parents, prejudiced and think like the back wood rednecks who taught them. Let's hope they're children get enough positive influence from modern thinking teachers or other family members who might live far away from Jackson county and are educated and give them a view on what life is really like. What a shame it is and how embarrassing for Jackson county, as a whole, to be represented by such people in law enforcement. It takes an outsider to recognize just how bad it is. It would be wonderful if Obama could help, but Jackson county law enforcement needs a lot more than Obama could give them or this woman either who they reported has faith and hope in him. Jackson county needs to stop living in the racially divided past, needs to learn tolerance, to learn love for all man kind and most of all get educated,it's never too late. Even for the good 'ol boys of Jackson county. This woman must have been quite upset to be taken away from someone she cared about, even it was the law, emotions can be strong, causing one to want to over ride it. I can understand her pain, but I know she needed to follow what the law say to do and to leave. But, God bless her for having hope,even if it's in Obama. There are many people who are white, black, asian and latino, who also have the same hope for Obama. Who doesn't want a better condition for our country and for our men & women to be brought home from conflicts we have no business in. I too hope and wish the best for Obama, to be he could be green or orange, as long as he serves us well. I've learned better through the years, thank God or I would be an embarrassment to the county I represent as well as Jackson county. Shame on you for reporting this, it's as if you are laughing and making fun of what this woman said, who is probably Black. Reason I say that is because you never would have made fun of it or written it in the paper,if I'd said it for example,since I'm white. You wouldn't want to report a white woman screamed at you that she had hope for Obama. Further more, as far as having hope,whether it's hope in Obama or not...HOPE is always a good & positive thing to have. Without hope,one has nothing. This article is proof that even reporters and news writers aren't immune to this thing called racism & prejudice. Only God can help all of you with your racial issues and I hope He does ...and soon. Curious to see how many responses filled with misspelled words and bad grammar my post will receive...which by the way, will only will prove my point of uneducated ignorance.
