Paradise, CA Lives Up to Its Name, Again

Published on October 23, 2008 by   ·   2 Comments

A few miles up the road from our homebase here in Bumblefuck, CA is a town named Paradise, which is kind of a ballsy thing to name your town, especially one in semi-rural Northern California. Thus, it was lulz this summer when Paradise burned down, or at least some of it. But fire can’t keep the haters down; the parts of Paradise that are left are still full of aspiring klansmen and people who hate “niggers,” especially Barack Obama, as evinced by the following e-mail from the Paradise Center for Tolerance & Nonviolence:

Dear Friends,

PCTN has learned of three recent occurrences of Hate Graffiti / Incidents in our community.
An Obama sign was defaced with the word “nigger”.
WP (White Power) was painted on a wall.
A figure of a black man hanging by a noose was in someone’s front yard as a “Halloween decoration”. The Paradise Police Dept. acted promptly on this report and took steps to persuade the individual to remove the figure.

Insert Paradise pun here

    Way to go Paradise. If only the rest of the country was as wise. We’re so stupid. Barack is evil and wrong. Long live the wisdom of the small towns.

    Why the hate? By the tone of your statements, and the lack of appreciation of your ‘own’ community, I can’t help but wonder if there is something in the water there? After living in Paradise for 20+ years, being educated by CSU, and traveling extensively, I’ve found it to be no different than anywhere else in the world. My new haven here in Washington State has the same problem with Village idiots, but most of the people are truly good. Call it what you want, but hate is hate, no matter where it is – spread the love my man… please!
