I'm not making these up...

If itturns out to actually be a “racial hate crime”, you can lay the blame squarely at the feet of Barack Hussein Obama.


Let me see here.

Black thug knocks out elderly white victim. Not a Hate Crime.

Somone puts a rope on a statue. HATE CRIME!!!! OH MY GOD!!

(freaking out here)

CALL THE FBI. OFFER A $25,000 REWARD.

/geez


I’d start by investigating members of the racist NAACP. If that turned up nothing, try interrogating members of Holder’s Just-Us department.


Lookie here.

Could Ole Miss football players have been to blame?

Ole Miss linebackers Denzel Nkemdiche and Serderius Bryant were arrested this weekend in separate incidents.


(Note: Both those football players are...black. That's the trick undertone of that post. When I first saw that story I thought, geez the University of Mississippi can't catch a break huh?)

Or maybe the perp is black? Al Sharpton to the rescue!


Number of Englishmen hanged during the reign of Henry VIII: more than 70,000
Number of black Americans lynched during the era of Jim Crow: less than 2,000.

Now remind me again which race has more right to be intimidated by a noose.


Basically all these comments are either retro Mississippi bigotry or following the Lee Atwater playbook change the subject to the Knockout Game, OBAMA IS CORRUPT, and back-handed trash talk about black people.

It's so frustrating. In America, people exist who rationalize this despicable, ignorant act of bigotry...and they post their bullshit online proudly...and they vote.
