Dr. L Should have known better. I don't give her a pass on ignorance. Apologizing is the right thing to do but too little too late. She knew better. Shame on her.

Shame on her. she spoke in the moment, she didnt call anyone a racial slur she just paraphrased others to make some irrelevant point she cant take it back, all she can do is not repeat the same type of incident again

It can't be taken back. It was hurtful and especially egregious because the woman was in pain at the time. She was not slurring the woman by name calling but she should have been supporting her when she was feeling insulted by misbehavior in her home. Instead she negated her feelings. Oh well. Some help! Sheesh.

I must disagree with you again. All whites are not racist as you claim. Some are brought up to hate and others are driven to it by negative images or actions with one. I think your past instances with minorities being abused has blinded you with hate for anyone with white skin. No hatred here. Disappointment in other humans. Disgust at the actions of other humans. Anger at the ignorance that shouldn't be. But not hatred.

Did anyone bother to mention that Dr Laura is a physiologist? Her abilities are not much past disecting a frog..or a rat. Her thesis was on the "Effects of Insulin on 3-0-Methylglucose Transport in Isolated Rat Adipocytes". Wow, how impressive. She's just another RW religious conservative nutbag on AM mono static radio.
