RNC Attendees Throw Nuts at Black Camerawoman, "This is how we feed animals"

[Adam Griffin]

I wouldn't be surprised if some liberal activists perpetuated this stunt.

Because this is the most logical pathway of thought. You know, as opposed to just admitting that a sizable percentage of your electorate is nothing but a bunch of hardcore racists. I don't see why you can't accept the logic that in an audience of thousands of polarized, partisan Republicans, that at least a couple of them are going to be racist enough to do something as bigoted as this. After all, 30%+ of Republicans still believe Obama is a Muslim despite having no evidence to suggest such a thing. Among this Republican audience of knuckle-draggers, 56% of Tea Party identifiers, 50% of evangelicals and 41% of all Republicans believe Obama was born in another country. When you add in the "doubt" factor, the number of Republicans who engage in this bat-shat behavior grows to 65%.

 

This will certainly be a good fundraiser for Democrats, who seem to be promoting a race war. 

Oh, you mean how the Democrats are counterattacking Republicans for executing a war on race? Don't get your panties in a wad when your party dog whistles for four years only to have the Democrats come up behind you with a foghorn.

And where did they get the nuts?  

The Republican convention is full of them.

I don't think they let food in the convention hall but I could be wrong.

I could be mistaken, but what - short of the black camerawoman yelling, "Hit me, honkies!" to the individuals in question - would even provoke such a response such like this? Perhaps the response was not overtly racist; we were not there to know for sure. However, I don't see how this could at all be justified as "OK" even in a non-racist context.
