1) You know it was a "white teabagger" how?
2) You know it was a "Rosa Parks" poster how?
3) You know if posters were allowed to the debate how?

While we're making crude assumptions, i'll assume mush for brains is your strong suit.

If it is true, why was this person displaying a Rosa Parks poster, whatever that is. This is not a black / white issue. And people that are making it a racial issue are race baiters. Which is probably what drew applause from the audience. People are tired of it, and are not going to take it anymore. There is going to be a revolution in this Country. It is that serious.

It seems the Beckbots who run around quoting the Constitution and Bill Of Rights only think it applies to them. If they don't like an opinion they scream and shout like children. If they see a sign they don't like, they steal it and destroy it.

They're not a "teabagger", just a poseur.

Rosa Parks is analogous to the tea party grassroots movement.

Good questions. Here's another observation. It looked to me as if the crowd was cheering this guys removal. In fact, I'm quite sure that's exactly what they were cheering about.

Good try though, Trop.

What does that matter?

Quote:
whatever that is.
Surely you jest? Home schooling perhaps?

Quote:
This is not a black / white issue.
While Rosa Parks' protest against the violation of human rights transcends race the fact remains that her protest was against the one of the vilest and long standing forms of racism, the concept of white supremacy so this is most assuredly a black/white issue when the sign is held by an African American and it destroyed by a "white" person. To deny that fact is simply unbelievable.

How utterly ridiculous.

Take what? What revolution would denigrate one of the countries greatest revolutionary figures?

1) That he is white isn't in question. That he is a "teabagger" is debatable, but possible (maybe even probable).
2) You can see a corner of it in the second to last image on this page.
3) Posters were not allowed into the town hall.

The video doesn't show the woman's arrival with it, but apparently the crowd got quite upset when she first entered with it. She rolled it up and put it on the chair in front of her and sat down. A photographer went over to her and asked to see what it was a poster of, I guess in an effort to provide accurate reporting if he was going to write about the sign incident. As she unrolled it while it was still laying on the chair, that's when it was grabbed off the chair, ripped and rolled into a ball. When she went to retrieve her stolen property, she and the perpetrator were separated by police, and although the news only shows the black woman being escorted out, apparently they both were.
