That is a nice theory...except that that word did not appear in my original comment; only in the parenthetical edit after it was downvoted. I take exception to you describing my comments as "race-baiting"; that is offensive and uncalled for. It was also certainly not my intention. I think the way we treat the uninsured is criminal in this country, and it's also very dangerous from a public health standpoint, and this example illustrates that problem quite well.


> But it's simply a fact that politics and race have played a part here.

You just described your entire "pre-edit" opinion as a statement of fact.

> I take exception to you describing my comments as "race-baiting"; that is offensive and uncalled for.

Bringing race into this is what someone might consider as offensive and uncalled for.

But that's okay, you are entitled to your opinion, and I don't downvote anyone I respond to, so you have nothing to lose here from me.
