Predictably, Fox Nation is using the latest developments in the Trayvon Martin case to inflame racial conflict, this time with a headline called, Limbaugh: Trayvon Martin Case Is ‘Duke Lacrosse Case All Over Again. Just as predictably, Fox Nation readers took the cue. But even knowing what we know about Fox readers' racism, we were shocked by the following comment from "IMPEACH_BOBO_THE_FLEABAGGER." (H/T A.M.)
Think that's a rogue comment that somehow slipped past a moderator? It's hardly uncommon from this guy.
Do you like this post?

“This should be a lesson to all you PUNK ARSE black THUGS . . . "
Well, damn — who knew the simple act of going to a store to buy Skittles and iced tea constituted “punk arse black thuggery” . . .
Plus, it seems that, in Florida, only “certain people” have the legal right to “stand their ground”:
Marissa Alexander, a black victim of domestic violence, just received the full brunt of the racial double standard on âStand Your Groundâ NRA/ALEC laws. In Florida, where Martin was killed, Alexander was just sentenced to 20 years in prison for firing off a warning shot to fend off her abusive husband. Itâs important to note that Alexander received a sentence in jail, even though she was allegedly defending herself â and no one was hit or injured by the shot.

The masses needs to send all those comments to every black conservative and ask them to respond. Their reaction would be priceless.

When the FuxNation website lags in posts, Jesse Weasel Watters knows the cure. Toss in any news at all about any Black person, preferably with a photo. Then sit back and watch the FuxNation racist turds thrash about in their own little cesspool of hate.

Ellen, as best as I can figure… there are roughly 1,000 active posters on Fox News and Fox Nation at any given time. As far as I’ve explored the current crop, 314 of them are habitual racists, and of those 314, 59 of them are physically incapable of refraining from slurs or hate speech.
I’m not saying that to be faceticious- when I click on a thread like this, the only people out of those 59 not spreading disease like this are the ones that their posting habits won’t let them reply that day. If the thread isn’t closed when they can, it’s a safe bet they’ll be on there then.
Oh, and it’s kind of a coincidence that when I find a racist “joke” from a Fox News viewer, I can head on over to Stormfront and find out that it’s been circulating there for a week… wouldn’t you say?!

Even Yahoo!, where comments under news articles run amuck, would throw that comment away, or it would get voted down by other users.

Shocked??
Nah…..this stuff is expected from cretins like this. The socking part is that an organization that claims to be credible and fair allows this type of hateful rhetoric. The problem isn’t the stupid, ignorant and hateful people….after all, they are only what they have always been: stupid, ignorant and hateful. The problem is that these creatures have been granted a forum. As long as the vermin are allowed to exhibit such diseased behavior, the more it becomes ‘okay’ and part of the mainstream dialogue.
