2 Idiots at Nebraska-Wisconsin Dressed up as Trump Lynching Obama and Clinton
SB NATION ^ | Oct 29, 2016 | Alex Kirshner

Posted on 10/29/2016 7:56:50 PM PDT by nickcarraway

There's no excuse for this.

Wisconsin is hosting Nebraska in Madison on Saturday night. In the stands at Camp Randall Stadium, one fan dressed in a Donald Trump mask, and that fan’s companion dressed in two masks: one for Hillary Clinton, one for President Obama.

The fan in the Trump mask appears to have depicted himself lynching his partner in the Obama and Clinton masks.

Here’s an angle from the back:

At the @UWBadgers game and there is a man with a mask of President Obama and a noose. This is racism, why was this allowed into the stadium? 4:

And a video that shows the costumes more fully, as the costume-wearers were apparently leaving their seats:

The person in the Clinton and Obama masks carried a sign that says “WHAT DIFFERENCE AT THIS POINT DOES IT MAKE?” It’s hard to make out the entirety of the sign from the obstructed view in the image above.

But what is easy to discern about this act is that it is racist. It depicts America’s first black president being lynched, along with Donald Trump’s presidential campaign opponent. It is jarring and upsetting.

Some of the people who’ve seen the costume are angry that Wisconsin let it be worn into the stadium. University police tweeted that stadium staff asked the people involved to get rid UW-Madison Police ✔ @UWMadisonPolice @scoutymachugh @JulieDiCaro While we don't support their message, this is a form of free speech. 5:07 PM - 29 Oct 2016

UW-Madison Police ✔ @UWMadisonPolice @JulieDiCaro Again, we don't support the message that they're trying to convey. Guest Services asked them to remove the noose and they did.

The university itself used stronger language.

Follow UW-Madison ✔ @UWMadison @NatsBankruptcy @JulieDiCaro Not cool at all. An image of a noose in our stadium is unacceptable.

Whatever constitutional arguments could be made for allowing the costumes, that anyone chose to bring this display of hatred into the bleachers is repulsive.

Basic Alinsky tactic. Paid for by George Soros, I suspect.

Who cares? It’s not “racist” unless hanging HIllary in effigy is racist. If it had been someone hanging Trump in effigy everyone would have a good laugh.

Just like the black guy who donned the gorilla costume and ran on the field with all lives matter on the back of his shirt.
This was about a month ago.

Typical left-wing agitprop. Like the “kkk” guys demonstrating in front of the Republican primaries and at Trump rally.

The individual being responded to in the tweets is one of the all time liberal whiners in existence who is offended by everything.

Did the perpetually outraged Twitter tools have any comments on Hillary's thugs?

Yeah, I agree with you. That game is at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, WI. In a super liberal city like that this would not be tolerated one bit. You smelled a rat and so do I!

I've posted this before, but a long time ago.

The following material is from an article by David Horowitz.

Alinsky's biographer with the following anecdote about Alinsky's advice to students wishing to protest the appearance on their campus of the first George Bush, before he became president, because he was America's representative to the UN during the Vietnam War:

"College student activists in the 1960s and 1970s sought out Alinsky for advice about tactics and strategy. On one such occasion in the spring of 1972 at Tulane University's annual week-long series of events featuring leading public figures, students asked Alinsky to help plan a protest of a scheduled speech by George Bush, then U.S. representative to the United Nations, a speech likely to be a defense of the Nixon Administration's Vietnam War policies [Note: the Nixon Administration was then negotiating with the North Vietnamese communists to arrive at a peace agreement-- DH] The students told Alinsky that they were thinking about picketing or disrupting Bush's address. That's the wrong approach, he rejoined -- not very creative and besides, causing a disruption might get them thrown out of school. [Not likely -- DH.]

"He told them, instead, to go hear the speech dressed up as members of the Ku Klux Klan, and whenever Bush said something in defense of the Vietnam War, they should cheer and wave placards, reading 'The K.K.K. supports Bush.' And that is what the students did with very successful, attention-getting results." (Let Them Call Me Rebel, pp. xv-xvi)

This anecdote tells you everything you really need to know about this mentor to Hillary Clinton and the Obamas, and the ACORN radicals. Lenin once said that purpose of a political argument is not to refute your opponent "but to wipe him from the face of the earth." The mission of Alinsky radicals is a mission of destruction.
