RNC nut throwing racism.

[5thHorseman]

But I thought it was Democrats who were the racist bigots? Derp.

Two attendees were ejected from Republican National Convention on Tuesday for throwing nuts at a black CNN camerawoman.

The individuals told her "this is how we feed animals" as they threw the nuts, multiple witness said.

Convention security and police removed the two from the convention centre shortly after the incident.

In a statement, convention officials said the attendees had "exhibited deplorable behaviour".

"Their conduct was inexcusable and unacceptable. This kind of behaviour will not be tolerated."

The identities of the two ejected was unclear. News broadcaster CNN confirmed the incident but had no additional comment.

The incident happened on Tuesday in the Tampa Bay Times Forum, where delegates officially nominated Mitt Romney as the Republican candidate to face President Barack Obama in the November presidential election.

Why did they throw the nuts I wonder. I guess they threw nuts at every black person they met on the road to the convention.

surprising that they wasted good food. They're hardly known to turn down an opportunity to eat, our dearest republicans.

But Sir, it's just a wafer thin mint.

I am pleased to see the RNC has enough standards to throw out the assholes who did that deplorable action.

They only did it because they got caught. I wonder how many more such instances are going on that don't involve news crews?

They know what hurts the cause of actually sneaking racists into elected national offices.

I wish they would have been apprehended and arrested so we could have found out who these guys actually are. They're the very tactics that were used by the now defunct leftist group, 'Crash the Tea Party'. Something about this whole incident is bogus and the CNN reporter presented a convenient opportunity for them.....

And this from member of the party that profited so gleefully from such slime as Andrew Breitbart.

If they were indeed provacateurs instead of outspoken membets of your own, your ilk would certainly have apprehended them just for the publicity value, which your ilk and you crave much that you would cravenly trying to squeeze a shadow out of no evidence whatsoever. Pathetic.

But the fact they did not choose to apprehend them tells everyone those are not provacateurs but really your own.

I think our new resident fascist fool forgets that Andrew Breitbart was one of his his agents provacateurs.

If only there were a hell for him to burn in.

Oh my, I expect the kind of glassy-eyed indoctrinated posts from you but really? This is such an old cliche of the right wing used all over the world, from the KKK's defense of domestic terrorism in the 50s and 60s to the death squads of Central America.

"The left wing had agents that dressed up as us and they did this to make us look bad. We swear! That had to have been what happened!"

Dude, come up with something new. This one got old a long time ago.
