She actually said it was a mistake typed in the body of the mail...
The mistake was her office sent it to white city councilors and it was only supposed to go to non white councilors, when they realized i t went to White City councilors they uninvited them, and then it hit the news. This is Boston though nothing will happen to her, if you say anything they'll call the person complaining a racist.
@Nitedoc Well it was a mistake, the mistake was the public was not to know about the "electeds of color holiday party" but one of the white council members or their staff made sure the public found out, they do it on the down low because they know it looks terrible. Even some of her Allies are dragging her for this stupid party . What's really amazing is every Boston City councilor are liberals in good standing, and that isn't enough, they still needed to segregate
That so called president is far from mendacious as is the board of trustees supporting not one not two not three but more than four instances of wrongdoing. @SW-User
She tried to pull a fast one. Got caught. It was her responsibility as the mayor to assure accuracy and no such remarks about “ color” of people, as in this instances an alleged error in an e- mail for a function she was hosting.
@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow the screen shot was before her apology. But where her failure was, was in not checking the - e mail before it was sent .”Electeds of color” -what does that .mean? But don’t get in a snit. Her ass will be kissed and it’ll be blown over real soon.
Instructing a minion doesn’t excuse her. Moderates correctly object to taxpayer mi he fu ding this. If she paid for it or used campaign fund or sold tickets no problem. @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow
They are all comfortable with the notion that its ok to be racist to White people. She's in a East Coast Democrat city in a Democrat state. She'll be fine, likely this will increase her profile and status.
@jackjjackson I hate to "America Bash" as we seem to be getting along so we right now..But there does seem to be a culture in the US of ignoring or excusing the evil that some people in power do. Be is politicians, corporate leaders or even supreme court justices, that would cause them to be removed immediately in other places..😷
Seriously? Do a tiny bit of research. All of this stems from a party that has been held for years and somebody hit "Send all" instead of sending out invitations to the specific people who were invited.
And now we have a made up controversy when they cleared up the confusion.
And now the dominant majority for hundreds of years wants to play the victim because they feel entitled to an invite to everything.
If the Boston Mayor was a Republican, then it would be 100% illegal, since discrimination is against the law at a Governmental Level.
But since the Boston Mayor is most likely a Democrat, it's 100% legal, since Democrats can legally pick and choose what laws they want to follow or not.
The reality is racism/ discrimination comes in all colors and ethnicities…even though there are those who only see WHITES guilty. But perhaps the whites in Boston will pull their heads out of their asses and vote her ass out of office
You’re boring me and I’ve have you politely to stop repeatedly. Making an accurate public service announcement is hardly screaming. You on the other hand have mastered the art of whining. @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow
You’re boring me and I’ve have you politely to stop repeatedly. Your every response is another desperate please for attention. @PicturesOfABetterTomorrow
Yeah, even democrats are saying it's racist garbage:
Democrat City Council member Frank Baker, who is white and was originally invited, also said: “I find it unfortunate that with the temperature the way it is, that we would further that division.”
My personal opinion is that the mayor probably isn't a bad person but I'd be highly uncomfortable with a woman who throws no whites allowed parties. It's not that I'm even judging her, I just wouldn't want it personally just because it would be a little weird for me.
That's kind of like a black person working for a mayor who hosted only all white parties I think. It's just an awkward situation all around.
@jackjjackson well as a taxpayer I wouldn't want any public "holiday party". But if I got my panties in a bunch over every wasted tax dollar I'd be fit to be tied
This group has had their own party for over a decade and it has only been an issue this year because a staffer doesn't know how to send email invitations.
And some butthurt conservative decided to make this into a controversy over hurt feelings over not being in the cool kids club.
She's not, federal discrimination laws have criminalized such things. However, I seriously doubt BinBiden's Boston Area federal US Prosecutor will enforce it.
@Musicman Because BinBiden has too many kingmakers manipulating things behind the scenes. Everyone claims this is Obama's third term, false, it's BinBiden's third term, Barack was a mere puppet. Think about it, how many others would have survived his 1988 plagerism scandal, never forget that the main beltway around DC is called DuPont Circle.
