This was just forwarded to me by my best friend. We both live in Los Angeles. She writes, My friend Richard took this pic this morning, thought you two would appreciate. Just another peaceful rally in downtown L.A.

This has shown up on several threads. Do you have a credible source for the original image?

My best friend named one of her co-workers as the photographer. I’m emailing her now to ask her, does she know for sure if he TOOK the picture or did he get it in his email from someone else. I’ll report back when she answers.

Photoshopped.

StandWithArizona.com debunked it days ago.

I don’t doubt that the sentiment is common among many of the “protesters,” but I’m not quite buying the legitimacy of that sign. I would like to see some corroborating evidence.

I first got this back on Tuesday from ALIPAC I think it was. They were quite up front about not knowing if it was genuine or not.

After blowing it up on my graphics editing program and scrutinizing it in detail, I came to the conclusion that it was a photoshop special as well.

Look carefully at the edges of the sign.

Any demonstration organizer would be an idiot to allow anything like this to be displayed. Some of the stuff they really do strut is sufficient to give them away for what they are - we don’t need to resort to such disingenuous techniques as photoshopping to impeach their credibility - they’re doing a fine job all by themselves.

This was the first I saw it. Try not to overreact.

So, we have Obama out there telling violence prone people that they are being attacked on a racist basis. Why isn’t that called ‘incitement’? Why isn’t Obama accused of inciting violence? He ought to be. The cowardly, wimpy, spineless elected GOP representatives ought to bring this up. Cowards.
