maybe it was the tea party that made minorities start believing that the Republican party was the white party.
There were tea party rallies where 1 or 2 idiots had the N-word on their signs.
Now, typically, we'd just chalk that up to random idiots, the small .001% of people that are just stone cold racists.
BUT there were 2 problems here....
1st, at least one of the sign-holding racists was a state-level chairperson of the tea party, and
2nd, other people at that rally didn't break that sign and kick out the racist.
When they tolerate it, they endorse it. That person should have been escorted the fck out for the racist shit... UNLESS those around him agree, which may be the case.
