Disgusting racist swine Carl Paladino (sorry for candy-coating that description) has been given an ultimatum by the Buffalo School Board. They voted 6-2 today that he must resign within 24 hours or they’ll petition that state of New York to remove him. Good.

But check out how one of his 2 supporters asked the minority community of Buffalo to forgive him. This is why this bigoted piece of garbage still has a political career at all: because he’s not alone.

Only two board members ― Patti Pierce and Larry Quinn, who are considered Paladino allies ― did not support the resolution. They said they would like to see Paladino apologize to the students of the district rather than resign.

Pierce said she hoped the people in Buffalo could show Paladino some forgiveness for his comments and “take a page out of the horrific massacre that happened in Charleston, South Carolina, where nine innocent people in a house of worship were slain by a hateful, hate-filled man.”

The comparison drew gasps from the audience and was too much for one woman, who left shouting that it was offensive to use the murdered African-American congregation members in this situation.

Absolutely freaking unreal. How does someone even get into a space where they think saying something like that is remotely OK?
