"White dude rescues 3 kids from icy death"

Why is this being made into a race issue?
Are you saying a black dude wouldn't have saved the kids?
Or that African Americans cant swim? Shame on you. :)

In the snowstorm, we are all white.
In the depths of a mine, not so much.

Understood.

Human beings doing what they do best.
Helping others.

Alaskan,

After your post, I reread the article and found no reference to race or color.

I am perplexed why American1st put the word "white" in the title.

It wasn't pertinent.

How about "Ex-cop who still carries a gun...." and give it a gun-rights angle?

He asked Rbot to write the headline.

I wonder why the title doesn't say "White dude rescues 3 white kids from icy death".

"Why is this being made into a race issue?"

Why not? It's an election year.

Reminds me of this wonderful spoof on It's a Wonderful Life!!

I don't see the point of race baiting, especially for a feel-good story like this. Good for the ex-cop and the other rescuers. That could've been a grim New Year's.

Anybody who has had to drive interstate through Utah on slick roads knows those people can't drive for shit on ice.

He noted that both he and his father are former military/civilian police officers, while his sister and mother are emergency medical technicians.

Union thug Government-teat suckers all. They're all living off of the tax payers and don't deserve shit.

"I don't see the point of race baiting, especially for a feel-good story like this."

I don't either, but somehow thinking about being sunk into ice cold water does not constitute a feel-good story at all for me.

>I don't see the point of race baiting...

it's good to be king. why not just automate it? i can help you write the rules.

I see the title got changed.

Daddy moderator to the rescue.

Absolutely nothing inappropriate or degrading to anyone about the original title, but nannyator came to the rescue all the same.

The original title was pointless and strange, but it didn't insult anyone except the thin skinned.

Perhaps that is part of the problem here in the US these days.

Too many pussies with thin skins thinking they should be pampered all the time.

Wahhh Wahhh..you hurt my feelings.

Get over it and grow up!

This rescue was incredibely hard to pull off. Holding one's breath and diving in water near freezing, just about impossible.

The cop is a hero!!

The water wasn't all that deep, in fact, the other motorists helped turn the car back on it's wheels before they rescued the kids.Or, at least, the last two

For those of you whom may be concerned as to why I put "white dude" in the headline, I say, fuck you, you thinned skinned cocksuckers, I'm proud of my "race", too.

I'm proud of my "race", too.

Danke!

American1st,

I have a question.

Considering the article didn't mention it, how do you know he was white?

While I don't see any real harm with your statement, I don't see any point in it either.

Where are all the cop haters?

how do you know he was white?

Uhmm..his picture, Bill. It's #2 of two in the slideshow at the link.

#19 | Posted by northguy3

De nada.

Oh...I didn't look at the pictures. I just read the article.

I don't see any point in it either.

That's exactly my point. What is the point in everyone else's bullshit? None. Zero. Zip. Zilch..Nada. Everybody pointing fingers at everyone who disagree's with them, and all for nothing. I merely pointed out something (positive) that some white dude did. Call it a break from the norm, if you will. Also, it was a little bit trollbait, as I'm sure you've figured out. I got quite a few bites, dontcha think?

"I merely pointed out something (positive) that some white dude did"

Actually a whole group of white dudes. Well done!

White guys can be cool once in awhile.

Who's that one dude that invented toilet paper? Real thin dude too; oh well, but I do know he's white.

Only cowards feel the need to carry guns

" I'm proud of my "race", too."

good.

but i didn't realize white folks were oppressed.

"#9 | Posted by klifferdYour point?"

my point is color doesn't matter.
good people and bad people exist in every race... even white people.

wonder if he had a permit for that gun? wtf was he doing with a knife. he could have done all of this "saving" with an antenna.
BOob

He had to shoot out a window - thank GOD he didn't hit any kid in the car that he was risking his life to rescue or his ass would be mud.
