Black GOP Candidate In Florida Faces Horrific Racism
Fox Nation ^ | June 29, 2014 | Alex Lazar

Gloreatha "Glo" Scurry-Smith, who is running in the Florida GOP primary to take on Rep. Corrine Brown (D) in November, recently experienced a very disturbing case of racial discrimination.

On Sunday, Smith tweeted a picture of a vandalized campaign sign, in which her face was covered in white spray paint: See White Faced Black Candidate at the link.

Well, I am puzzled, definitely confused, taken aback as well to see the article from Fox Nation listing the author as Alex Lazar (Huffington Post). Fox News giving credit to the reporter being from the Huffington Post? Very strange development I am not at all in favor of.

Regarding the article, within the Political Pantheon of the history of the US, you'd be hard pressed to find a group whose political hypocrisy and perspective against black candidates who have embraced conservative, Republican values to be more fraudulent, hateful and racist than that of the Democratic party members and establishment.

More power to Glo Smith if she’s a conservative. Tough job to beat Corrine Brown I think though.

Want to bet it was done by a Democrat? Because “she wasn’t black enough”?

She seems good enough, but I can’t find any other candidates in that primary.

whiteface on a black person’s billboard ad is not “horrific” racism.

the actual candidate getting beaten up and their actual face being sprayed white, that i would say is “horrific” racism.

Corrine Brown is an egregious, repulsive sub-human. And her constituents are worse....Which is part of the reason she will win adain.
