Everytime this man opens his mouth, he offends someone displays a bias that is poisonous. There is an old adage that Mr. Glenn should learn and practice:
One can close their mouth and let people wonder if you're an idiot or you can open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Well said. We clearly know that when he is speaking, he is demonstrating that he is a racist idiot.

Think he is bad, I can live with his antics, Pitts is the real nut.
Anyone that can complain to the media how they pick on him just because his boys got busted selling drugs, definately does not have both oars in the water.
This clown really belongs on city council, well maybe he does, sometimes council meetings are a sideshow.
You think he (Glenn) is spending a lot of time with the media?
Must be an election in the future, seems like Mayor Berger is hogging a lot of air time, every time there is something on the news that is of interest to the community there is Berger strutting in front of the cameras.

Tee Cee,
No argument there. Pitts is a nut job. He sees KKK members hiding behind every tree and to him, every white is a KKK member. Pitts is probably the biggest racists on City Council.

The fact that he said it, with no remorse, and no apology, speaks volumes. My dad used to tell me that you can tell a lot about a mans character by the words he chooses in the arena of public debate. Did Mr. Glenn attempt Seppuku? No, I think this is typical Derry, and I have no doubt, Tom, you will have more fodder from him in the future.

LionFred,
You are dead on. Glenn is a man of no character. I can forgive a slip of the tongue, but his refusal to apologize demonstrates that it was no slip and that he indeed believes what he says.
Too bad your dad is not on City Council. That body could use a wise man.

How about why is The Lima News a racist newspaper.

Especially the $hit that goes on the front page, useless BS.

Paul Stephenson,
Clearly you are the racist here with such a stupid comment. Point out one racist item in The Lima News. Try.
You can't.
And as far as the color of the staff, we have had many black staffers. However, as journalists are concerned, blacks don't want to work here because of the racist idea that a staff must be diverse so they can go to much larger papers for more money regardless of skill level because that paper wants to appear "diverse." We can't hire black reporters if they don't apply.
Maybe, instead of calling people racist (as racists like to do) you could have simply asked why there are currently no black reporters.

Why is Derry Glenn such a racist?
This kind of talk from an elected official is despicable. Glenn owes an apology to all Americans. We all come from immigrant stock. He specifically owes an apology to all our Arab friends who have chosen to make Lima their home and have opened businesses, created jobs and contributed to our economy, which is more than Derry Glenn has ever done, even as a member of City Council for some nine years.
Let the foreigners stay and leave them alone. Glenn, on the other hand, should just go. He is an embarrassment to Lima.
