The black woman who was harassed by Republican National Convention attendees says "I know racism when I see it and when it's being thrown at me."
Everyone's been talking about the horrifying, is-this-seriously-happening-in-2012 incident at the Republican National Convention, in which two attendees threw nuts and taunts at an African-American CNN camerawoman, telling her "This is what we feed to the animals at the zoo." Everyone, that is, except the camerawoman herself.

OK
SHOW ME THE TAPE !
Some Democrats here told me that they were going to try and set up some embarrassing situations and make false claims at the RNC convention. They told me there was a underground movement to raise false or exaggerated claims and that I would be hearing about them soon on the major media.
What? You want proof of what I am saying! LOL
Really.
That's what I heard
Interesting timing...
I agree, this appears to be a staged event, made to make the RNC look bad. Why isn’t CNN talking this up since it happened to one of their own employee? Something tells me that CNN knows it either was a setup or not true.
BIG RAT.
Lets see CNN they do have cameras right? Let's see the video. . . . . .
False flag op. There’ll be more. A lot more.
“I know racism when I see it and when it’s being thrown at me.”
“This is what we feed to the animals at the zoo.”
So were they throwing peanuts, or bananas at her? Does it even matter now that the race card has already been thrown?
Ummm didn't the CAMERA WOMAN know how to document this sort of thing? One would imagine the last person you would do this sort of thing to, would be one that uses a camera for a freakin' living.
And yet, mysteriously - there is no video of this action.
Yes, it seems odd. Not only is she a camera operator but these days virtually everyone has a phone with a camera (and I bet lots of folks at the convention are carrying cameras and video recorders as well. And we have NOTHING? Not a picture or video of the event. Not a picture or video of the perps? Not their names? Not a description? NOTHING? That is why I think this story is bogus. Something here doesn’t sound quite right. Just like those always fuzzy, ever at the right angle photos we get of the “monsters” that wash up on the New Jersey beaches.
“Are you kidding me, Jamila?” She asked. “I’m from the Deep South! I know racism when I see it and when it’s being thrown at me. No black person would have done that!”
Really? They call each other nigger all the time, I grew up in the south too, don’t think for one minute that blacks won’t use racial attacks on others. In fact, you want to see blatant racism, go see how jamacian and other blacks for the west indies etc are treated by American Blacks... Don’t give me that garbage.
I am not saying this event didn’t take place, but don’t tell me blacks won’t be racist toward each other.. its a flat out lie.
This is hysterical. Black people play the knock out game and kill random victims for fun but no black person would throw peanuts. Got it.
If this happened Mizz Cameragirl, where’s the video?
Surely you wouldn’t be in a hostile environment without a secret camera recording all of the eeeeevil Republicans menacing you.
As the gamers say, “Screenshot or STFU!”
Total nonsense.
A Donk “victim” in a GOP convention ?
Too rich...
If she wants to speak about it, then we demand that the names of the perps are released.
Silly me. I thought this was about individuals and their behavior and their claims about other people's behavior.
If you've "got it" I hope nobody else catches it.
Pictures or it didn’t happen.
