New proof that all town-hall protesters are racist: Guy tears up woman’s Rosa Parks poster
Hot Air ^ | August 13, 2009 | ALLAHPUNDIT

A “Larger Truth” brought to you by the same nutroots liars who now insist that eight years of Bush = Hitler rhetoric was fringe stuff that shouldn’t be used to tar the entire left. I suppose if you can believe that quoting the Boston Globe amounts to “stalking,” you can believe that fears of socialized medicine are really all about resegregating buses. Funny thing about this: The whole thing happens so fast, and the perpetrator’s angle of view is so acute, that it looks like he never even saw what was on the poster. As McCaskill herself — to her great credit — notes in the second clip below, this was almost certainly a case of overreaction to the “no signs allowed” policy at the town hall rather than some targeted attack on a civil-rights icon. But this is where our national “debate” is right now, so behold racism in action. QED.

Well, then, that makes it A-OK to destroy someone else's property. Glad we could get that cleared up.

They spent a half hour before the meeting telling people NO POSTERS. They announced it every minute at the door. THERE WERE NO POSTER POSTERS.

it’s called provocation. These idiots provoked it. Another idiot fell for it. And idiots like you defend them.

Hey, when you are on the other side of an issue from Claire Mcasket, it’s time to get a check up from the neck up.

The guy who tore up the poster was probably fearful that the bearer was part of an organized right wing mob of insurance company stooges. Either that, or the guy was an SEIU member.

“Claire Mcasket”

HAHA! I like that one! She reminds me of Grandpa Munster in the face with that crone look.
I will be glad to once again vote AGAINST her come the next time she’s up for re-election.

Doesn’t do much good to explain the rules to some people, does it? Now we have Freepers supporting RAT provocations.

What was she carrying a Rosa Parks poster for at a Healthcare townhall?

Provocation perhaps?

I wish I could see the guy who tore the poster up t shirt because it looks to me like it might be a union shirt? Dh has several that has the union letter on them and from a distance all you see is an unpronouncable word.

Just as points of Information:

While it took 4-5 officers to get the woman out of the hall, she complained that it took only one to escort the man who took her sign away. Oh, and BTW, the guy was peacefully arrested outside, and went to take his “medicine” in front of a judge.

Maybe she whacked him with the sign before the video started?
