Living in a tourist city in Florida def has it's drawbacks. Topping that list is Winter, when blue hairs invade the area with their Continentals (which I've learned do not come with blinkers but do come standard with 20 mph governors), shitty gratuity aptitude, and overall cranky demeanor.
The NWF Daily News is reporting that Wisconsin snowbirds have also imported their own brand of Badger State racism:
What Snowbirds call a party to celebrate their Wisconsin heritage, Jim Brown calls “defamation.”
Brown is a black South Carolina resident who was visiting relatives on Okaloosa Island. After reading a column about the party that was in The Destin Log, he called the newspaper and complained. The party, according to the column, is a celebration “by and for Wisconsinites” that features music, tailgating and Wisconsin bratwursts.
“The way it’s stated, it implies that other people are excluded from the party including black people,” Brown said. “It excludes a lot of people and it does not read good relations between other races and people from Wisconsin.”
So there you have it. Aspercreme scented white people eating sausages and swapping albums of fugly grandkids somehow translates into bigotry.
Mr. Brown, as appealing as it sounds, I promise that after hearing the same story 3 times within the hour with The Glenn Miller Trio playing in the background, you'll want to run as fast and far away as possible. Rent a freaking movie and STFU!!!
