Should I be Insulted….?

Should I be insulted or did she just not see my picture? Or was this meant for Bink whose comments moved me to complain about the way the Humane Society treated a homeless man?:

If you think she should have brought him home to live with her, well, maybe you’re one of those people who thinks that all white people with jobs are rich.

Oh, right. I’m a white person who doesn’t have a job. (And neither does my wife these days.) Of course I can’t see things “as they are”.

Who mentioned race in the first place? I didn’t and Bink didn’t. I suppose that this presumably white person is the first to launch the sally. I won’t say that is to be expected just because she is white, but the couching of the remark is telling, don’t you think?
