I belive you are confusing GLS (Guy Steele, the 'I' in the story) with Eric S. Raymond, the, eh... curator of The Jargon File.

The quote in your comment is from Raymond who is indeed quite racist.

Accepting arguendo that your claims are correct: What do they have to do with the magic / more magic grounding switch?

Assuming this is supposed to be about ESR, this page isn't written by him, since it's signed by someone else…

White people commit the majority of workplace violence in the US. The Justice dept. has breakdowns of violent crimes by ethnicity if you want to see the details.

Thanks

Edit: I looked it up and the mentioned statistics about overall violent crime is actually true. OTOH cherrypicking only violent crime stats and not mentioning white collar crime stats is racist.

Trotting out a race correlation and not mentioning another correlation (poverty) is also racist.
