Dilbert dropped by newspaper
Following Scott Adams's rant on YouTube in which he called Black Americans a hate group and said White people should "get the hell away from" them, the Gannett newspaper syndicate, the Washington Post, and a number of other newspapers have dropped his strip "Dilbert".

I was astonished when I read the comments. I thought Adams was on the side of the little guy and the underdog. I'm glad our local newspaper dropped it.

..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
