Chris Hayes: Would Fox News Defend Bundy Ranch Supporters if They Were Black?
Mediaite ^ | April 22, 2013 | Matt Wilstein

Monday night, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes used an essay on Slate about the Bundy Ranch standoff and race as a jumping off point to discuss how this story would be different if rancher Cliven Bundy’s armed supporters were black.

“When is it that people take up arms against the federal or state government, point their arms at federal agents and face no consequence for it?” Hayes asked. “The answer is to that is hardly ever.”

Hayes went on to imagine how Fox News react to the New Black Panthers if they decided to “greet law enforcement with long guns.” Or what if the Occupy Wall Streeters had been holding “rifles and sniper-scopes” instead of “drums and hand-made signs,” would Fox News have called them “patriots for resisting tyranny?”(continued)

Hayes, it isn’t about black and white you dumb chit. It’s about liberal and conservative. You speak and act my politics and I could care less what color you are.

That other guy, Rachel Madddow (who names their son “Rachel?”) is even more masculine.

Would Chris Hayes have a job at MSDNC if he were heterosexual?

Chris Hayes is a metrosexual douche. I’m surprised anyone was even watching his show to notice.

What I want to know is how many race cards are those people dealt? Seems like an endless supply. Get over using the race card and live with it.

It’s becoming more and more obvious that if CW II ever ACTUALLY begins, it will have to be prosecuted until no scumbag libtard influence exists to F things up all over again.

“Hey Chris, same question goes for you”

True. Since MSNBC has not defended the Bundys or supporters, all that really needs to be done is to ask them the very same question, only exchanging MSNBC for FOX...so...

would MSNBC “news” defend Bundy ranch supporters if they were black?

the day will come when the ranks of the Freedom fighters will be filled with blacks. They they will be welcome—as they were in Washingtons Army in the Revolutionary War.

Since he can't win this argument on the facts he has to try and change it into something racial and ignorant.

Hey Chris why don't we leave your racist innuendo and BS slander for another day and deal with the facts.

Your boy obama ignores any law he doesn't like each and every day and nothing is said. Holder has made a career of ignoring federal laws and then pretending that they don't work. If you do not implement them they will never have a chance of working. But the bottom line is that we are supposed to be a nation ruled by laws and not by people. If Obama and Holder can pick which laws they want to ignore then so can the rest of us. In our nation the same laws are supposed to apply to each and every one of us in the same way. PERIOD!!!!!

You do remember that old equality thing don't you???

I guess this clown wasn’t born when Willie ‘Be’ Good (first black mayor of Philly) ordered a bunch of his cops to drop dynamite packages from a helicopter, onto the black activist MOVE group’s conjoined row houses.

The action subsequently killed lots of people and burned a whole, mostly black, neighborhood to the ground.

Stupidity cuts across all lines!

As I was forced to watch Master Hayes (AFN Armed Forces Network) plays all the top news stations for the troops.

One thing came to mind when this sophomoric man boy was trying to articulate some obscure non-news item and make it sound important. I pondered how bent the news has become, and how unintelligible these morons who justify their existence with pablum and dribble not being able to produce an independent thought.

Yes America, until we wake up and hold these accountable, we are screwed.

Another embarrassing question that will remain unanswered.
