Racial slur by Tea Party leader hits home
Dayton Daily News ^ | April 12, 2010 | Lawrence Budd

Posted on 04/12/2010 6:46:14 AM PDT by vortigern

Racist comments, including a slur about Hispanics, posted on the Twitter page of the Springboro Tea Party were particularly hurtful to Alana Turner.

“Illegals everywhere today! So many spics makes me feel like a speck. Grrr. Wheres my gun!?” said the March 21 posting on the site managed by the group’s founder, Sonny Thomas.

Notice the questions NOT asked by MSM:

1. Who gave the stand down order for our borders?

2. Why do police officers who stop illegals let them go?

3. Why aren’t businesses who hire illegals punished?

4. WHY AREN’T BANKS WHO DON’T REQUIRE SSNs PROSECUTED UNDER RICO FOR AIDING A CRIMINAL SCHEME?

5. Why are student loans given to illegals? Our tax-funded program being used by illegals at universities around the country.

Etc etc

Manc, you chose wisely!
While it was a trial to be her daughter growing up, my mother came to this country after WW II, surviving Nazi occupied France (Bayonne) and then a camp when the Frch commies accused her family of collaboration (her father interpreted for germans).
She was a staunch conservative because she KNEW tyranny - and was one of the first to be a fan of Ronald Reagan...
I think her greatest legacy was to educate her children to love freedom...looks like you will have the same legacy! Cheers!

Of course,

why do we need millions of illegals here in the U.S. taking jobs from legal citizens at a time when we have 10% unemployment (19% if you count long-term gave up not looking for job unemployed or underemployed — stock broker working at Starbucks now).

Then the rest of us should condemn him and his statements and move on. Don’t let the crash-nuts use him to paint the millions of TEA party members as all racists. Keep fighting, counter EVERY attack.

Oh good the Tea Party can continue to run around in circles. Many in the Tea Party and on the right allow the Left to keep them on their heels and worry about crap that doesn’t amount to a hill of beans. Meanwhile the Left embraces the invasion, the Hispanic Caucus, LaRaza, MEChA and all kind of racial BS along with nation and culture destroying crap but let’s worry about being polite while our nation is being undermined.

The Dayton Daily News is most notably the absolutely WORST newspaper in the world. To say they are liberal is an insult to liberals. They are so far left that liberals don’t agree with them. I lived in the area for 14 years and took the paper for about 12 of those years - it is a disgusting waste of cutting trees.

So anything - and I mean anything - that comes out of the Dayton Daily News should be viewed as extremely left leaning bias. Racial inequality, union support, high taxes, immigration reform - you name it. Any leftist policy gets front page attention by the Dayton Daily News.

Did I say how disgusting that rag really is?

I think that he is a bit of an attention whore (failed musician), based on what I found last week. He hits most of the TP points on the head but there is a slimy underside to him that causes alarms to trip.

There is plenty of proof that there is racism and anti-semetism on both the left and the right. Every once in a while it creeps into the light. When it does we should squash it.

Whihc is why we should formulate an "Alinsky" style response pointing to, say, the past work of one Robert Byrd.

Hey, that’s okay. Post something vile on another topic and screen-cap it. Photobucket the screen-cap and link it around the internet proving the association of that publication with vile comments.

I dug into Sonny Thomas last week when this first appeared. He does run a local TP.

So we have a high level infiltrator then.

“No weapon formed against us shall prosper”

Be prepared for the Progressives to step up their game ... WE HAVE THEM ON THE RUN! We are taking our country back and they know we have finally figured them out.

First, the Dems deceive and lie.
If that doesn’t work they use the “race card” and cry.

Why can’t the left debate the issues like adults with a spine? Never, they always stoop to schoolyard tactics and whine.

It’s time they realize their propaganda is childish and lame. And we have NO interest in playing along with their manipulation game.

Feel sorry for me I’m a minority

Feel sorry for me I’m gay

Feel sorry for me I’m an illegal alien

Feel sorry for me I’m a ‘liberal’ woman

Feel sorry for me I’m pregnant AGAIN and I want the Christian taxpayers to pay for my abortion

Feel sorry for me I’m a drug addict

Feel sorry for me I want a car and a home ... even though I sit on my rump all day .. I’m entitled

Feel sorry for me I want health-care, the taxpayers should pay for mine ... I’m entitled...

And so on... and so on....

Dems, change your diapers and dry your crocodile tear
November ... you are outta here!

Best advice to any Tea Partier is to spend some time chattting with someone who grew up in a Communist country

Definitely! I have heard some stories that would even startle some liberals.

most other European immigrants I know minus the Irish for some reason are more in tune with the republican partys agenda.
I would think that many hispanics would be too if the GOP actually talked about family, and social issues but of course the GOP lets the Dem party and the far left dictate what should be talked about through PC.

It’s amazing how some on the far left think that those who have come here from Europe would be voting Dem when infact we do not.
