LOSERS: Don’t represent community
Sorry to hear that a bunch of “losers” in a pickup truck and another in a car shouted racial comments to the Utah women’s basketball team. Bill Reagan said it best. “Don’t let the actions of a few indict all of Co…
RACISM: The sickness is simply sickening

INCIDENT: Facts first, then judgment
