Glenn Grothman: there's too much attention being paid to cancer among minorities.

Clearing some backload from Glenn's recent press:

First, Doctors don't respect human life and now this:

Pushing cancer education, awareness for minorities

The Wisconsin Department of Health Services aims to educate the public about certain health challenges, including the disparities among racial and ethnic groups.

"So one of our challenges is that we know that rates of many kinds of cancer are higher among communities of color – African Americans, Native Americans, Hispanic, Asians – than they are for our White populations."

[...]

Senator Glenn Grothman had said we don't need Minority Cancer Awareness Week; awareness for everyone should suffice.



Because Glenn doesn't believe cancer rates are higher among communities of color?

-- I know, or global warming. Or evolution, probably.

Global warming and evolution rates are higher amongst minorities?

Well, I sure hope so, on the evolution thing, at least. Someone has to save us white people from ourselves (and the world from the white people).
