No History of Racial Bias at Connecticut Slaughterhouse

These days in post-racial America all that matters is someone accuses a person of being racist and that's all the left and the media needs to tar and feather a person. Facts just don't matter any longer. That's why we have eight dead people killed by a black man for nonexistent racism and everyone just yawns. Those murdered by this jerk now are being buried and all they ever accomplished in life is meaningless.

They were called racist and now they can't defend themselves.

Barack Obama and Eric Holder, arbiters of all thing race, were unavailable for comment.

The Connecticut beer distributor where a driver killed eight co-workers in a racially charged massacre appears to have a clean record with top agencies that investigate bias complaints.

The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has not sued Hartford Distributors for race discrimination, according to agency spokeswoman Justine Lesser, citing records dating to 2001.

And the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights has no record of race-discrimination complaints made against the Manchester-based Budweiser distributor, said spokesman James O'Neill.

Omar Thornton unleashed a bloodbath Tuesday after company officials showed him surveillance tape of him stealing beer and told him he was facing the ax.

Yesterday, cops busted an Enfield, Conn., woman, Christy Quail, 33, who was allegedly seen on video taking the beer from Thornton. Sources said that in addition to Quail, who is charged with two counts of minor larceny, police also are eyeing a male former Hartford Distributors worker for possible involvement in the theft.

Thornton, 34, who was black, told relatives he had been subjected to racial taunts.

In a 911 call made Tuesday after murdering co-workers and minutes before killing himself, Thornton said Hartford Distributors "is a racist place. They treat me bad over here."

But Thornton's Teamsters local and the company also said they never received complaints from him.

"That's why everyone was mystified" by the racism claims, said company spokesman Jim Battaglio, who noted that 20 percent of the company's drivers and warehouse workers are black, Hispanic or Asian.

"That was not only shocking to [the Hollander family, which owns Hartford] but painful, because they have done an awful lot from a charitable standpoint around the state."

A black man who had worked for two decades at Hartford before retiring in March -- and returned Tuesday to ask to be rehired -- said, "I have never experienced any type of racial activity" there.

"I've actually seen Omar at work . . . and he always seemed to be happy," he said.

Well I guess he was happy, until he was caught stealing. Then it turned into whitey was out to get himn so the only recourse he had was to murder eight people.

Ah, post-racial harmony sweeps over the land. Why didn't he just do like others in such situations and plant a noose somewhere?
