Agreed. If the privileged southern rich didn't already have a history of bigotry going back a few hundred years, I'd question this. However, given the obvious implications they knew it was there. Was there any news stories from 1983 or whenever declaring "Rich white privileged Perry family removes offensive racist words from rock on their land"?
No.
Was there any story about the Rock at all during the time from 1983 til now ?
If not...was media protecting him...or whomever...why wasn't it a story before now ?
Now it could have impact...so now it becomes a story...hmmm
If you are looking for reasons to dislike...then they gave you what you wished for....
very convenient wouldn't you say...they had this info a longtime...
