Sicko rants at Jeter
See the racism that is breeding in BushworldUSA? Kayne West was right.

Monday, September 26th, 2005

A poison-pen racist being hunted for threatening dozens of prominent African-American men because of their interracial marriages has added Yankees captain Derek Jeter to the hate list, the Daily News has learned.
The letter, mailed to the superstar shortstop at Yankee Stadium, called Jeter a "traitor to his race" for dating white women.

It warned the 31-year-old heartthrob to "stop or he'll be shot or set on fire," a law enforcement source said.

Other letters written by the racist have threatened to "castrate" and "burn" Supreme Court Associate Justice Clarence Thomas, among other notables.

"The wording is very similar to letters that have been sent to other prominent people across the country," said Special Agent Scott Wilson of the FBI in Cleveland, which is investigating the case.

5. His Mom is White -
why is it when a person who comes from a black/white parental unit, they are supposed to date only blacks, according to some in the black community?

6. Racism not exclusive to white people - but this person may not be black -
<snip>
In the case of Diggs and Menzel, letters threatened to burn down the Gershwin Theater when she starred in the musical "Wicked" last year.

Investigators said some of the notes tried to paint the author as a black woman angry at black men for dating white women.

"But that seemed to be part of the disguise. More likely the author is a white male," a third law enforcement source said.

Investigators are trying to develop a profile of the author based on similar language, typeface and spelling in the letters.

The letter writer is believed to live in the Midwest because many of the notes have been postmarked out of Canton,
