Oh no you didn\'t!

Evidentally, some Dallas City Hall council members skipped out on science class in “skool”. A bizarre exchange between city hall members erupted when a special meeting was called over how to handle traffic tickets. Directly from the city hall blog:

“Commissioner Kenneth Mayfield, who is white, said it seemed that central collections “has become a black hole” because paperwork reportedly has become lost in the office.

Commissioner John Wiley Price, who is black, interrupted him with a loud “Excuse me!” He then corrected his colleague, saying the office has become a “white hole.”

The kicker is that the council member that uttered the “B” word, was asked to apologize for the racially insensitive comment? huh?
