I really must get around to making a post about this ongoing saga:

It's gotten deeply under my skin for all sorts of reasons beyond the obvious. Mostly to do with the packaging and marketing of authors, youth and books about nothing in particular, but also to do with the fact that everyone is some degree of thief, some are just graceless.

I don't think it's silly at all. I think race totally complicates this situation on every possible side of the issue, generally because race tends to complicate everything in America whether we admit it or not.
