At least, that's what Chris Roberts heard today at Everett Middle School, when Mayor Lee and United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Shaun Donovan toured the school as part of the “Mission Promise” neighborhood tour:
No joke: mission district kid at everett ms asked about problems in hood by Obama cabinet Secretary. Her answer: muni — and white people.

We're sure Ed Lee took that comment well.

Certainly not. And not my friends. Or my friends’ friends, either.

What about white people who work for Muni? Are they beyond salvation?
I don't think before I type | [Permalink]
there are no white people that work for muni. all the good government jobs have gone to “minorities.”

Ironically, Everett is actually far enough west that it’s in the Castro, and the majority of the immediate hood is white.
As for Muni, she’s certainly right about that.

Ed Lee is a tool of the white establishment class so of course he did not like that (most fucking righteous statement by the child) statement.
Jonatton Yeah? | [Permalink]
He’s a tool of the established class; whether white, black, brown, yellow, or fuchsia. Calling it a uniquely white issue is more retarded than righteous.

Not white drug addicted alcoholics like me so i’m in the clear. BTW while I’m coherent can we name the OBB after Emperor Norton.
Or am I not in the clear either?
