i was just informed by a friend that you posted that same email on this blog. i hope when you grow up to be an adult you realize how stupid that is. thats my info and you have NO RIGHT to post it. i am not afraid of who i am or what i do. but its my story to tell. not yours or any stinkin info you find on google. if you dont agree with my beliefs regarding pot thats fine. post your opinions right behind mine every time. i welcome it. but if i burn you and you google 'thekid3477' to get some info on me and post it in retaliation...well i dont know what to say about that. karma flows the bad way to man.

pardon me reading this too literally, but...msleo said, "Is it racist to call someone short? Yes. Is it racist to call someone fat? Yes." NOOOOO. It's NOT racist, It might be rude and/or discriminatory, but RACIST deals with a person's RACE. WHEW! I'm glad I got that off my chest. I wasn't sure if I could sleep tonight without pointing that out. Again, I'm sorry for being too literal. It's a little problem of mine. Perhaps a 12-step program might help.

Thanks for the kind words RSR, I'll buy the first round.

MooSHOO....right?? Seems there always has to be a destination in mind for peace....I would join you for a beer, or ten...lol, anytime! :)

I wonder how much would it cost for just one lick!!

Well at least he is good at sales...

Ohbama will help him .

maybe you need to explain what you ment by the remark ice and dont tell me it has to do with a name brand ice cream. I'm not syaying crystal meth has anything to do with a persons
skin color I dont walk that road,

cardtrader: Your accusation has offended me and I do accept your apology.

caution dr wesgonsin. your ignorance is showing.

cardtrader: Please tell me what crystal meth has to do with a black person? Most users are white, so please fill me in on what is racist about my remark. You make no sense to me.

Chainsawchuckie, it is a shame we have to go all the way to Washington to mend fences and make nice. Why can't we do that here in Janesville?

lets all go over to the white house and have a beer..........good greif

Great comment Mooshoo. Agreed.
It never says he sold Crack out of the vehicle.

cardtrader and others who are disgusted by the haste of the posters on here, I agree with you totally. That is why I had to take a very long break from posting/reading the gazette online. The comments on here tend to put negativity into my mind, and I can do without that....and it is apparent that most of these posters thrive on that, and no matter how much we tell them in a well rounded environment they truly do look ridiculous, they will continue to believe they are superior. Just go to bed at night with a clear mind and soul, and peace will find you..... :)

And let me say right now I'm sorry if I offended anyone with my comments or mispelled words and lack of proper grammer.

sarah your first comment was in reference to (ice)which is a street name for crystal meth dont play that game with me.

my spelling or lack of has nothing to do with this story, it was in refrence to all the stereotypical comments made by white trash americans

LOL beeferer good point, and msleo I totaly agree with you

White people commit crime, brown people commit crime, black people commit crime and red people commit crime. Non-racist people accept that fact. It is the innuedos and stereotypes come out as fact when the "black", "brown", "red" man commits the crime that most people find insulting. Furthermore, when someone pulls the race card, and it is without merit, it sucks for the person who played it. If they have cause, there is a legal system and federal protections that will make anyone who violates their civil rights pay big time. Unfortunately, tolerance and restraint are in short supply on both sides of the equation.

What's the problem with skin color being mentioned? When someone is describing what a person looks like they give hair color, eye color, height, weight, and skin color. SO WHAT! Is it racist to call someone short? Yes. Is it racist to call someone fat? Yes. Is it racist to call someone Asian? Yes. Mexican? Yes. Black? Yes. White? Yes.
Why do you have to get all bent out of shape when the race you ARE is mentioned in the description of you? It's no different than if someone gets all upset when they are called a redhead when they have red hair. Yet God help you if you say what color their skin is in their description.
If I'm trying to point out someone to who ever I'm talking to in a room full of people, I will list the FACTS of that person, and skin color is one of them. How does saying what color the skin is degrade that person? It's NO DIFFERENT than eye or hair color!
All the people - no matter what color - screaming racism are the ones keeping racism alive!

cardtrader: Show me where I have been racist and I will send you $10. My first comment here was a play on frozen treat names; my second comment was my agreeing with Janesvillean that some of the comments on here are racist. Maybe you need to return to school to freshen up on reading comprehension skills.

Have you guys noticed that every topic that is listed on the gazette,has been totally ignored, in order to correct people that wish to add racial tone ,and sidetrack the subject at hand, im noticing this more and more often, even human interest storys end up marred , this is disturbing to me ,I will continue to support this community and teach,my children that because you can speak your mind, does not make it right,just because you can say it... if you must be racial about life please keep your opinions to yourselves thank you....

"Hey control your (YOU'RE) missing the point weather (WHETHER) by ignorance or just plain stupidity, the race plays an important part of narrowing down potential bad guys, but not when used to stereo type (STEREOTYPE) ones (ONE'S) race or group of people" Don't you just love it when someone accuses someone else of stupidity while displaying classic signs of the affliction themselves?

racially charged comments generally are made by those who are afraid of someone different than themselves or by those who are ignorant and have chosen not to learn. I try not to give that type of person any of my time or waste any energy on it, as it's quite apparent nothing said on a comment blog will change a person's perceptions. This particular person, whether he is purple or orange, is an example of what has gone wrong in America.

People try to better themselves and their family, become entrepreneurs and can't afford the expense of being in business because there are those that just try to get away with illegal activity under the guise of a legit business.

why is everything we say or do, the race card has to be pulled up,who cares what color he is,hes a drug dealer,good riddance to him and his kind.(and by that i mean a drug dealer)i wouldnt want anyone to misunderstand.

Hey control your missing the point weather by ignorance or just plain stupidity, the race plays an important part of narrowing down potential bad guys, but not when used to stereo type ones race or group of people

So let me get this straight, next time there is a bank robbery, rape or something and the person gets away and the victim or police give a description of the person they should not be giving the persons race along with the other parts of the description? "Calling all cars calling all cars be on the lookout for a bank robber 6' tall 180 lbs wearing jeans and a t-shirt" hmmmmmm was this robber balck, white, hispanic, asain or ???? I think knowing the race would help narrow things down a little more and make things easier

thank you cardtrader, very good post.. we are the true citizens of janesville not the racists that use free speech as a hiding place... some on here need to be out job hunting or back in school somewhere...

(shopierehuh) sounds angry ,and the racial undertones are loud and clear,personally i don't care what color the man is , and it is not important. but thanks for the racial update. however every time a news story hits the paper references are made of a persons race immediately after the description of the crime.
Then an arrogant person uses low i.q and third grade intelligence to highlight a persons skin color.

why are you so giddy up about what race done it?
you know white kids steal, kill and sell drugs too...
does it matter what color they are?
I promise you if im ever one of your peers on a jury on trial at court, color will not be a factor when i give my verdict. I say hang all races by the neck for crimes until some one notices that color doesn`t make a differance...
it not good for white kids or black or red or yellow to break the laws in our country, or to punish one more than the other...

" Say, perhaps he is being racially profiled by the police, maybe the President of the United States will step in with some words of wisdom."

if your not profiled how could you relate to someone who is... every time any of you can sum up someones life in a comment , you are guilty of profiling. and every time someone makes condesending and racial remarks ,you are guilty of racism and low intelligence.
I feel bad that i help build this country and it inhabited by morons...

perhaps the former president has some words of wisdom for you "all men are created equal".....

If this guy would have been selling marjiuana out the window of his ice cream truck, along with the crack and God knows what else, we would have a bunch of them dope-heads posting on how they think pot is so "harmless".
Another thing, too? How do ice cream truck drivers wash their hands? They handle all that filthy money all day and you just know they don't rub that disinfectant stuff on their hands after every sale.

Line up janesville and show you ignorance, this is exactly what happened, white ignorant people shooting off at the mouth just proves how racist we are.shopierehuh, janesvillean,mopsy,sarahB1

you don't see ME lined up at Frostie Freeze! People tell me to get over it...it was a long time ago...I tell them I will not patronize a business where the owner is a perp. seems to me the Mr. Softee guy was also a perp. but that's long gone now.

regardless of the whole despicable concept of the charges, you have to admit the headline was clever. made me kind of think about the wizard of oz. oh my

People act so outraged then you see 'em lined up at Frosty Freeze.

It's not a "Black and White" thing. It is a scumbag selling crack out of an ice cream truck.

Thanks. localboy. Now, I've got that song stuck in my head.

What's wrong with some of the people in this city?

As VH would sing, Oh my, my I am the ice cream man, stop me when I am passin by, see now all of my flavors are guaranteed to satisfy.

Is this what they call a sprinkle top cone??

Color has nothing to do with this. I see we still have some idiots in wi. If he was a white man would this have been said?? I am white & I do not like the profiling. GROW UP!! Point is my family & I were just talking about the old soft & serve ice cream truck & how things do not even look legit anymore. We will never buy from any ice cream truck anymore EVER!!

Thank you, Janesvillean! I had to bite my tongue (and typing fingers) after reading a couple of these comments.

Well said, Janesvillean.

Of course. This is exactly like the case where a distinguished black professor was arrested on his own property with charges dismissed. Exactly. Because in both cases, the guys are BLACK!
.
Boy, you people sure reveal yourselves pretty easily.

well said Shopierehuh!

He is a black male with several felony arrests and convictions and a long history of contacts with law enforcement and the court system.

Say, perhaps he is being racially profiled by the police, maybe the President of the United States will step in with some words of wisdom.

I thought he would be selling "ice" too.

So the computers are still not talking to each other. Another loophole and he drove his ice cream truck right through it.
