Well, we have to wake up to the fact that we are not in a “post-racial America”. In fact, I’m wondering how much of those “tea-baggers” screams that they “want their country back” really goes to the point that they want to return to a country where a Black man can’t be elected President and a Latina can’t sit on the Supreme Court. As the bigots feel more threatened by inevitable change, it’s going to get worse before it gets better. Just wait until that Hispanic Voting Block kicks in next election.

Some people are just plain dumb. Ruby, you will meet a bunch of dummies in your lifetime. I know your sweetness will overwhelm them just as your picture does here. Oh, this stupid stuff still happens. Thankfully, it’s not like it once was; but it still happens. Whenever any of us sees this, it really needs to be addressed. I’m sure the Police Department has policy in place and the offender will be punished. Now, please don’t bother about such things and enjoy being a delightful little girl who is growing and learning so many amazing things. (I wish I could do that with my hair.)
