Waiting in line for a Rep. Russ Carnahan (D-MO) town hall event on healthcare the evening of 8/6/09. This woman evidently cannot comprehend how an African-American man could possibly be selling the “Don’t Tread On Me” Gadsden flag along with other conservative and anti-Obama merchandise.

No come on, you’re working for him. Come on down here, black man. I’m serious. You’re– come on, get down here. I know you’re bi-racial, so is he. Get down here.

(We published these clips in August, but they were buried in a longer video and the quality was poor.)

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.
