Whoa... hold on.

So you're telling me that ONE random person made a comment on twitter, and some 19 year old girl gets to be on the national news?

I am seriously in awe of how low Fox News has sunk.

I guess the newscaster making ridiculous comments about liberals stoning people to death is perfectly fine, though.

But I can understand why people were angry at her, considering Paul's opposition to affirmative action.

Why are comments made on FB newsworthy?

because it can be used to sell a narrative.

like when you see a white conservative male post a video of a black youtuber and they saying ah ha, since this one black feels this way all blacks feel this way.

conservative white males troll like that on here.

Fox and the normal cabal of conservative Republicans are always trying to baby black conservatives and protect them from us mean and evil blacks.

The comments in this thread are a perfect example of how conservatives constantly insult, hate and dispense venomous bile on all that disagree with them.

Wade through the threads in the P&C forum and you will find a slew of examples of arrogant, condescending and fascistic extremist conservatives discussing "liberalism and leftists." Perhaps you are so busy insulting others for their political views you don't notice it, but I do. And if you insist on examples, they are easily found. Liberalism is a disease yada yada. Leftists are morons yada yada. Ruining the country yada yada.

I have never experienced or seen the level and intensity of hate from extremist conservatives as that which is posted (anonymously of course) on the internet. I really love when two extremist conservatives arrogantly and condescendingly in the middle of a thread begin discussing "liberalism" derogatorily, as they really do not get how transparently ignorant, insecure and egomaniacal their comments appear.

Not one person. Watch the video. She says she gets grief on it from others because she is expected to be one way because she is black. Shows how desperate the left is to attack her based on her skin color.
