put up or shut up

I can't stop thinking about the Arizona story that I posted earlier. (After motorists shouted racist slurs at school children painting a mural on an elementary school that depicted a Mexican child in a prominent place and an AM radio jockey who happens to be a town councilman complained about it, the school principal decided to lighten the skin of the children on the mural.  In an earlier instance the town of Pine erased the depiction of a black child on another mural because they were rural cowboys and didn't relate to black people.)

I'm really angry at the towns people who commented on the story to say that most people didn't think this way and the events weren 't representative of the town.

Really?  Then grow a set of Cajones and step up and do something.  Act like the individualist cowboys you claim to be and assert  your morals.  Or shut up and stop defending yourselves. 

racism, politics
