At 0:04, video of a man at a protest in Phoenix, AZ with a gun around his shoulder and one strapped to his waist, cropped in such a way that you can scarcely tell anything about him.

At 0:35, a trembling MSNBC reporter describes “white people showing up with guns strapped to their waist.”

See the second video below. I think this video creates genuine doubts about whether this hateful white man with a gun strapped to his waist is racist. Personally, I believe that this hateful white man is out to protest the nationalization of healthcare, but then again I am probably blinded by my own hatred for all things “other.”

I guess it is easier for MSNBC to conform the video to their prefab racial hatred narrative than to conform their narrative to facts.
