Nice, real nice. You know, I'm so sick of racism. White, black, purple, yellow....we're all the fr**kin' same. Too bad some jacka** in NF hasn't learned that. We don't have to love each other, but getting along would be nice. I work in a business where I am judged on my skin color on a daily basis. I HATE IT. I wish we could see past color.

As the for the dummby that said he only speaks off the record...I pay your salary..you better answer any questions. This article made you look like a real dumba**.

I don't think this is racism, more like another brainless government slug trying to make himself feel better by berating someone else.

As often as not black people do these things just to start trouble. Remember the rash of rural church arsons in the south a few years ago? Half were set by blacks. Notes and graffiti in colleges. Half of alleged racial provocations, after investigation turn out to be blacks trying to stir the pot. This not to excuse white people who do it, because there are plenty, but it is not all white doings.

This law suit started during the Elia administration not the Anello Administration. Anello has done a lot for the Black community and I wish people would quit trying to make him out to be a racist. There is nothing further from the truth.

I saw him on TV and he is more than that; try an ignorant @sshole. Who the h#ll does he think he is? He is a public servant and needs to remember who pays his salary. No one should be judged on their color; you should be judged on your qualifications for the job you are doing. I hope they find out who put the sign up and fire them. There should be zero tolerance for stuff like this.

Because positive stories aren't news. If that's all they reported, you'd change the channel to 2
get on with it already

sounds like dpw needs more to do if they have the time to screw around. there are county employees out there who justify their jobs on a daily basis so the legistrators don't close their department & don't need this kind of *#* publicity. please get a life & just do your job.

How come everyone in office in Niagara Falls has a last name that ends in a vowel? The must have come from a union because all the unions are that way too.

Rick Zucco and the Mayor not speaking on record speaks volumes of their tolerance if not support of these horrible actions.

In no way do I condone white against black racisism, but I do not feel that the media covers the reverse at all. I have been the recipient of black against white racisim many times, and it is just as disgusting. The Black community does not own the right to feel indignation about a slur against someone. When I get the term "white **** " screemed at me because I did not stop for a black teen in the middle of a block crossing the street, there is an equal feeling of racist hatred. Please try to cover both sides of the story. White is not always bad, and Black is not always the injured.

Thats a joke right? The Falls is majority white, and in the control of majority whites. This sign stuff is the tip of the iceburg, trust me.

Im white and I grew up in the Falls and the majority of my friends are black and Ive been in all black neighborhoods in some of the poorest parts of Niagara Falls. I have never been called a racist term by a black person or been the recipient of "anti white" racism.

FYI

And PS, I would not stop if someone were purposefully walking in the middle of the street either, regardless of color. And thats the mentality of both white AND black drivers in the Falls. We ALL hate that crap. Especially when people park in the middle of the street to talk to friends. Thats annoying too. But all races do that crap.

I have to laught at you people. Are you that supid, Common sense tells you that the black people that work there are the ones responsible for those signs posted at the drinking fountain. They can't stand to work, and people are so sick and tired of listing to them cry raceisum. They just want to suie anyone they can get there hands on. If they were so distrught about that sign then way in the hell would they wait a week to report it.Yea so they can have a chance to get a lawyer because thay knew that you supid people would believe them.And even if a white person did it, they have a right to freedom of speech, even if black people don't want to hear it. Open your eyes people you'll see the real raceisum.
