Come on, I am a dyed in the wool Democrat but you need to read this:

Quote:
The identity of the attendee was not immediately known, and it was not clear whether the person was a delegate or just someone with a ticket to the convention center.
plus the individual was booted out of the hall by the organizers.

Idiots are everywhere.

Default More feigned outrage from the left......

Why does the OP assume the "attendee" is a Republican? Could very well be yet another radical left wing activist who attended just to paint the GOP in a bad light. It wouldn't be the first time.

Regardless, if the GOP condoned this kind of behavior the woman would not have been ejected. Sounds like the GOP handled this hateful person appropriately. Does the OP not agree that ejecting this attendee was the correct thing to do?

What about all the so-called love coming from the far leftists who have publicly wished Republicans die in the hurricane? Where is the OP's outrage on that?

And Republicans wonder why they can't get more support from Black Americans.

It will be interesting to see if any of the Black people in the Republican Party speak out about this or will they hold their noses and bury their faces in the sand and ignore this.

sounds like the republicans BOOTED the POS

Quote:
The convention condemned the incident in a statement, saying, "Two attendees tonight exhibited deplorable behavior. Their conduct was inexcusable and unacceptable. This kind of behavior will not be tolerated."
will the liberals hold a standard like that...or will they just ALLOW actions like that, and smile at the camera

A few conventions ago when a number of democrats were spitting on a National Guard procession, I don't recall anyone being booted or the act being described as an "attack".

Did you not see the tweets sent by Ellen Barkin and Samuel Jackson yesterday regarding the hurricane

You are grasping at straws with this troll thread. The OP has no proof that his assumptions are accurate and has provided none with the linked article.

Why not actually address the questions I addressed to you? Why dodge? Do you think the GOP handled this hateful person appropriately by ejecting them from the venue? If so then what is your problem? Why the race-baiting if the situation was handled appropriately by ejecting the person behaving badly?

Default RNC attendee ejected for insulting black CNN camera woman

An unidentified attendee at the GOP convention Tues tossed nuts at a black female CNN camera operator and yelled "This is how we feed the animals!"

RNC Attendee Allegedly Threw Nuts At Black CNN Camerawoman, Said ‘This Is How We Feed The Animals’ | TPM2012

The subject was removed from the convention floor (at least until he/she sobered up )

CNN refused to comment, except to confirm the incident, first reported by a tweet from reporter David Schuster.

Man! Loosen up the social inhibitions with some of these Republicans, put them in the middle of a like-minded crowd, and give them some liquor, and the racial animus that SIMMERS, right beneath the surface, is ready to boil over!

These "Maquaca" moments are what is known in the trade as "tells".
