... Obama’s election in 2008 was preceded and followed by violent attacks and property destruction targeted against minorities.

Liar.

Kaylon Johnson, an African American campaign worker for Obama, was physically assaulted for wearing an Obama T-shirt in Louisiana following the 2008 election. The three white male attackers shouted “Fuck Obama!” and “Nigger president!” as they broke Johnson’s nose and fractured his eye-socket, requiring surgery.

Do I remember the case? No.

Am I going to save time and just call this a hoax without even checking? Yes.

Because if it had actually happened we would have been subjected to seeing it ad nauseam.

That sounds odd, that we did not get another “Rodney King” or “Trayvon” out of it.

If these cases were true, they would have been on the news thus whole last week non-stop.

I did what I could to check it out.

Kaylon Johnson was beat up, and likely robbed. An arrest was made. I found nothing about any conviction.

Best bet: Johnson was robbed, and blamed it on racism.

If there had been a conviction, it would have been in the news for years.
