Racism Rears it's Ugly Head

DNA has been championed, and rightfully so, in its proof-positive evidence showing the innocence of wrongfully imprisoned individuals, culminating in their release, some after many years. Science continues to extract the data that is found in DNA, learning much about many that will ultimately benefit the human race tremendously if allowed to run its course. Along the way, however, it's hit a glitch. It seems that scientific data shows that certain races and/or ethnicities are more or less likely to have or not have specific advantages or disadvantages and there are many individuals who feel this kind of information could be used to lend credence to the arguments of bigotry to the bigots themselves. Never before have these self-absorbed, bible thumping, inbred, racist, homophobic, hillbilly-bullies opened a science book in their lives and if they had and read scientific theories regarding homosexuality being physiological not choice, they would shake their fists at the stupidity of science while screaming indignantly at the nerve of what they know to be a falsity. But hint at a deficiency in the DNA of someone their parents told them to hate and it will be etched in stone and cause for ignorant celebration.

Despite the blissful bigotry the research will inspire, I hope science will forge ahead for the greater good to the benefit of mankind in the elimination of illness and birth defects, and the proliferation of justice.
