More Sonny Carson News

The fight to name a park after a racist anti-semite piece of shit continues. From Gothamist:

In addition to heckling Council Speaker Quinn during the proceedings, Barron’s chief of staff Viola Plummer vowed retaliation on Leroy Comrie, a black councilmember who abstained from voting on the failed amendment to support Carson’s street-naming. The Observer elaborates on Plummer’s remarks, which included “If it takes an assassination of his ass, he will not be borough president in the borough where I live.” When we remarked on a mention of an assassination yesterday, we figured Plummer was being metaphorical, but that sounds literal.

Wow.

Leroy Comrie is the Queens councilman who introduced the measure to symbolically ban the “n-word” earlier this year.

Goes to show he has no concept of what the real problem is in the “black community.” when one person in a supposedly civilized setting can threaten the assassination of another, you know for damn sure the problems facing urban youths have nothing to do with some kid calling another kid a nigger.
