Everyone involved confirms the incident. Curious there is no video or photos, though. Also, still no IDs of the perps. My opinion is they were lefty infiltrators trying to make the GOP look bad.

[AU72]

You can bet that a lot of people tried like hell to pin on delegates and couldn’t.

[dfwgator]

I want to know who the perps were, give me names, or it didn’t happen.

This situation could happen to me at the Democratic convention or standing on the street corner. Racism is a global issue," she said by telephone from Tampa.

IF this happened and if this was done by an RNC attendee and not a DNC infiltrator; I would say that it had nothing to do with her race, but because CNN has historically had a very pro-DNC bias in their coverage, comments and media-hype.

[TigersEye]

Carroll said no one took the names of the attendees who threw peanuts at her Tuesday on the convention floor

Right. They threw them out, took their passes but didn't get their names to keep them from getting back in. /s

[Just mythoughts]

I'm so reminded of that Reverend Congressman that accused the TeaParty attendees of spitting upon his precious flesh. IT did NOT happen....

[mojito]

Whoever they were, they were kicked out and fast, and the convention organizers apologized to the woman.

They were either plants or drunks.

[presently no screen name]

There is no doubt in my mind they were lefty infiltrators trying to make the GOP look bad. No names or ID's of those doing the throwing in a room full of people is key, IMO.

[RexBeach]

She was struck, allegedly, with peanuts and now it’s a racial incident?

Wow. She’s one tough woman.

Ugh.

"I hate that it happened, but I'm not surprised at all."

 

 

"I hate WHEN THAT HAPPENS, but IT DOESN'T SURPRISE ME at all."

Has it ever occurred to this animal that the very fact she works for CNN could have warrranted the peanuts that were tossed her way?

[Red Badger]

I suspect they were DNC operatives.............

[Born to Conserve]

“...said she does not want her situation to be used for political advantage.... She alerted fellow camera operators, producers and CNN security...”

No, not at all.

[Nifster]

It isn’t about race....throwing peanuts to the peanut gallery is not all that new. This person was OBVIOUSLY press and since the lame stream treats us soooo well it is hardly shocking that they would be shown disrespect and contempt.

[svcw]

So were peanuts thrown at her because she was black or because she is from CNN or because she is a dem animal or a dem from CNN.

[longtermmemmory]

could it be that she works for CNN and anyone with CNN would be treated the same?

Seriously, If she thinks FL is not skin color divers then she has not be anywhere in fl.

[snarkytart]

Considering what that fat lunk head from Yahoo was spouting on the RNC convention floor about republican’s partying while black people drown in New Orleans, I bet IF this did happen the remark was aimed at the liberal media and had nothing to do with the woman’s skin color. IF this happened. We know how the left loves to lie and make every conservative seem racist.

[Baynative]

If the incident is true could it just be possible that the reference to animals was pointed at CNN and not ethnicity?

[evets]

"THAT'S RACIST!"

[major-pelham]

I call bullsh$t.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Tawana.

Brawley.

[skeeter]

I was inclined to blame the peanut throwers because the cameraperson was just doing her job.

Now its obvious the cameraperson went into the convention with an attitude.
