Beware of Fake Hate Crimes [Swastika]
Weekly Standard ^ | 8.11.09 | John McCormack (blogger)

Posted on 08/11/2009 1:05:48 PM PDT by rface

Does this seem fishy to you? Over the weekend, Democratic Rep. David Scott of Atlanta yelled at one of his constituents, a urologist, who had the audacity to ask Scott about his support for Obamacare. Yesterday, CNN had a segment featuring Scott and the urologist, and Scott didn't come out looking too good.

Now, today, just when Rep. Scott could use a little sympathy from the public, we get a report that Scott has been a victim of a hate-crime--a swastika was spraypainted on a sign outside of his office.

In recent years self-inflicted hate crimes have come into vogue among certain citizens on the right and the left.

Willing suspension of belief.........

Anyone else see this jerk on Fox this morning, claiming the video where he was yelling at his employer (cuz that’s what constituents are) was doctored?

On a sign. Pretty quick and easy to replace. The sign looked kind of faded, like it could use replacing, anyway. I wonder when the replacement was ordered?

It wouldn’t be a swastika it would be a hammer and a sickle if I were painting it.

And as someone pointed out in a thread I posted earlier today on this story, the swastika report came out just at the moment he (democrat congressman David Scott) was appearing on Fox News. Smells fishy indeed!

Pine Ridge, the list is quite long.

But many on here truly believe that.

Two unrelated comments:

1. 60% chance it was a zealous democrat who painted it to blame it on conservatives. 30% chance it was actually one of his staff. 10% chance it was some kids looking to make the news. .000001% chance it was a conservative.

2. If the shoe fits ...

It wouldn’t be a swastika, it would be a hammer and a sickle if I were painting it.

This new demonRat party appears to be a hybrid version of both communism and nazism, so either would be appropriate symbols of who they are. But, perhaps, a new symbol, combining the swastika with the hammer and sickle, needs to be created.

Fascism and communism are basically the same.
The only reason they’ve been played as “opposites” is that they were competing for the same group of like-minded collectivists and each attempted to demonize the other.

What angered me more was the lackey, to the right on the screen, also pointing his greasy booger-hooker at the citizen?

Apparently, congressmen have “possies”.
Playa.

These extremists like David Scott are looking for a Reichstag Fire to exploit to their own propaganda advantage.

I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the ACORN or SEIU goons put that swastika there to get media attention.

Something to remember: NAZI is short for National SOCIALIST Party (of Germany).
