NAACP calls on Justice Dept., Secret Service to investigate rodeo clown flap
Washington Times ^ | August 14, 2013 | Cheryl K. Chumley

Posted on 08/15/2013 2:21:09 AM PDT by grundle

The Missouri chapter of the NAACP appealed for the U.S. Department of Justice and the Secret Service to launch an investigation and open a federal case against the rodeo clown who donned a mask of President Obama’s face...

... the fallout so far has included the resignation of the head of Missouri’s rodeo-clown organization, and the announcement of Missouri State Fair officials that all rodeo clowns will now have to take sensitivity training as a condition of their employment.

... the clown who actually performed the skit... has been banned for life from state rodeo performances.

I call on the (in)Justice Dept., the IRS, ATF, DHS, FBI, NTEU, OSHA, etc. to investigate the NAACP. Like they did to Catherine Engelbrecht.

Missouri leadership made fools of themselves over this so it isn’t surprising that the NAACP wants in on it. They want to make fools of themselves too.

It is an easy task for them as they are mostly fools to begin with. They all voted for this insult to the human race.

> yep. This is race bait.

What else do you expect? And what the hell do they think is going to be accomplished by investigating the incident? It was just a rodeo clown mking fun of an inept a$$clown who’s destroying our economy, our standard of living, our status as a superpower. and making us the enemy of everyone in the world. He fully deserves to be ridiculed. It was just comic relief. Get over it, lefties. Stop with the feigned indignation.

When it comes to the NAACP, pointing and laughing is the only correct response. They have rendered themselves a joke.

> The NAACP is strangely silent though when it comes to real issues affecting race.

Liberal hypocrisy, like stupidity, knows no color.

I’ve always wondered...If they’re so worried about racial issues why do they keep the word, “Colored”, in their name. You’d think they’d change that if they were really concerned abouit the disparity between races.

It is literally time to start putting some folks in prison at hard labor for all of this. It's time. You are NOT going to tell us what is funny and what is not funny. You are NOT going to intimidate us into not criticizing or making fun of ANY politician. If you want to ridicule, criticize and make fun of those with whom you disagree, fine. However, if you want to punish others who do such to politicians without overt physical threats, you need to be punished for inciting violence. What do you want, NAACP, and others like you? War? Are you stupid?

Stop and think for a second. What if conservatives decided to launch these kinds of attacks for mocking conservative politicians? We would have riots in the streets. Maybe it's time for riots in the streets over this outrage. The problem is, we don't have time to riot and protest like you do because we are so busy working paying taxes to feed, clother, shelter and healthcare the useful idiots who sit on their public housing front porches and respond to your beck and call. Who has enslaved whom?

Leave_________the__________man__________alone.

Black mafia demands Justice crush good and promote evil. Isaiah 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Sooner or later, God is going to open a can of Woe on some folks. It's coming...or God's a liar. Let's see what happens next.

Let’s see. They’re boycotting MO, TX (James Byrd), FL (TM), AZ because of immigration, and all the rest of the states that have stand your ground laws.

What states can blacks live in and travel to any more?

What we really need is an impartial investigation of the clowns in the White House and those at the NAACP.

Exactly what law was broken here that demands any investigation?

Go to hell, NAACP.
