I would like to be the first to celebrate Black History Month on OPP by pointing out what a totally r****t and worthless concept that is. Celebrating RACE! Are you kidding? How about celebrating White History Year, the whole goddam year? That makes more sense even while it still makes no sense. Hi there, Negro, I'm going to celebrate because you're black. Really, no s**t?
Hey, I know. Let's celebrate Homosexual Month. And we can celebrate I*****l A***n Month. Get your party rags on, time to make whoopie over the stupidest idea ever.

The reason for Black History Month, is to educate people like you. W****s have written the history, this history omits most of the contributions of other races. Children go to school and never see their race represented in science, medicine, engineering. There are thousands of patents given to Black people. The traffic light, Edison's light bulb, the filament was invented by a Black man. The ignorance displayed on OPP, is a sample of the ignorance of the country, and the people who are afraid to acknowledge that w****s are not the only inventive people.
