I don't get off work or school, but I have no class this day anyways.
I could care less.

I can see in communities where the majority are black how they would want it off, understandable, but around here, black accounts for less than 8%.

I'd be careful saying something like that, it makes you sound like you think it is only a holiday for "them."

Canada has no holiday today, so no school off (although I didn't go anyways :P)

Ok, let'* all make sure the black folks go to work and school on George Washington'* Birthday next month, cuz he was white, right?

MLK is being honored for his role in the Civil Rights Movement. It has absolutely jack **** to do with his skin color.

Now that I've said my piece, let'* get this back on topic instead of using muted racial slurs or insensitivity.
