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.

I'd really like to know how or where you came by the information of their passes being taken away.
Name the two people and the state delegation they were with or it didn’t happen.
Yes, I saw that and commented on it <@ reply http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2924590/posts?page=60#60>
Peanuts are what we used to throw to the elephants at the zoo. Is she sure it’s because she’s black? Maybe she’s fat.
One story said they were thrown out of the convention, so that would suggest that it happened, the names were known.
But that story could have been wrong as well.
Do I believe that in a convention of thousands of people, two people might do this? Yes. Do I believe that if one person at the DNC convention did something bad to a conservative, it would get 2 seconds of coverage on the news? no way.
The unanswered question — why, amongst all the black people attending the convention, these two “racists” picked this one single cameraman to hit with nuts. That might suggest there was a reason other than race to do this.
But whatever reason, it’s unacceptable behavior, and the reports are that it was dealt with quickly and correctly.
Given that there have been two other documented, successful crashings of the Convention, first by the Ryan hecklers last night (apparently Ron Paul supporters giving passes to Code Pink activists) and today by Debbie Downer and Sandra Fluke, the conclusion here is that the peanut-throwers were agents-provocateur who infiltrated with the intent of creating mischief.
The camerawoman should have started rolling tape on the pr*cks. And the RNC should have taken their pictures and posted them.
I was reminded of that same thing. As the despicable Nancy Pelosi would loudly whisper so as to make sure it was recorded, "Astroturf!"
This CNN woman wanted to be famous like her sister in liarhood, Sandra Fluke. I wouldn't put it past them to get T-shirts printed celebrating their victimhood in the phony, concocted "war on women". Silly girls. LOL
and the elephant is the symbol of the party that was holding the convention. If they threw peanuts at her it was because they thought she was a Republican?
I agree it could be that. She wants to be a hero with her bosses and buds. If she lied and it is exposed, she can check the axles while she's under that bus.
Sadly, black people do not comprehend what it means about the DNC that they believe such staged crap will manipulate the black voters. How utterly disgusting the criminal enterprise democrap party has become ... but I guess it is the full circle, since it was democrats who fought to keep black people in slavery and found the emancipation and fought the equal rights amendment, etc. How many black people even know that Martin Luther King was a Republican? ... And, not suprisingly, when you get them to believe it they call him the original uncle yom house nigger.
The only morons she will reach with this charade are morons who are already obama drones. The race card has been played and you socialist frauds lost the hand. It’s now time to PACK YOUR BACKS and crawl back into whatever hole you crawled out of. You have no credibility left.
That’s the great thing about a site like this. We can aggregate our efforts and cover a lot of turf.
A peanut is racism?
"No black person would have done that!"
But liberal black people WOULD throw Oreos at a black person, Michael Steele. But that's OK if they call him an Uncle Tom first.
yeah, sounds like the same kind of clowns who got ‘guest passes’ and gave them to Debbie Blabbermouth Schultz.
setup city.
Believe me, with all the security and media around there, if they were delegates or “official” Republicans, they would have been identified faster than the 9/11 hijackers.
Agreed.
