It's getting harder and harder to discriminate against Whites.

| Eleanor Egan |
Ms. Eleanor's latest fear of a secret plot to take over Costa Mesa is that the City Council will sneak in a qualification requiring anyone who runs for City Council to have served on the Planning Commission or the Parks and Recreation Commission--sort of a modern version of the old requirement that only landowners can vote and hold office or only men can vote.
See, the problem--at least in Ms. Eleanor's mind--is that since the City Council appoints all the people to the Planning Commission and the Parks and Recreation Commission, that those dastardly good Councilmembers will put their friends on those two commissions and then these friends will be the only ones who can run for the Council and when they get elected, these former Commissioners will appoint the now out of office Councilmembers to the Planning Commission and the Parks and Recreation Commission and then in a perpetual game of switching seats, these new Commissioners who were formerly City Councilmembers will run for the Council again and then they'll appoint the former Commissioners who are now Councilmembers back to the Commissions and then....
No, we're not kidding. That's Ms. Eleanor's latest concern. Does she offer examples of any cities where this happens? Of course not. Why? Because it's just silly.
Well, anyway, perhaps the Council should simply tighten up the language a little to give Ms. Eleanor some rest. She must be wearing her fingers to the bone typing all these silly letters and columns against the good Councilmembers.

BLACKS ATTACK AND ROB KIDS WALKING HOME FROM SCHOOL IN LOS ALAMITOS
Here's the real news about the above story: The OC REGISTER actually told readers that the attackers are Black. Of course, as is normal, the paper then didn't reveal the race of the victims. See how it works?
Now, the Good Whites and the NAACP will probably complain that the REGISTER is perpetuating stereotypes by publishing the race of the attackers.
Folks, most stereotypes have a basis in fact.
