Just thought you might like to know who’s reading your bile.

Yes, the state has many bigots and a terrible racial history. It also has one of the most diverse populations in the country, a wealth of art and literature, incredible richness and variety of cultures, and unlike many parts of the country actually has to face its flaws and try to figure things out while some look on and throw stones.

Just thought I’d put that out there. I’ve heard places called shitholes before. And you know by whom.
