Obama Supporter Ticketed For Calling Black Kids In A Tree “Monkeys”

Personally, I’m not so much upset about the “monkey” comment (seems like an innocent enough term to use for little kids climbing in trees whatever their racial background) as I am about the woman getting ticketed for just saying something.

This is still America, right?  I’m as appalled by racism as the next guy, but freedom means freedom.  Being ticketed for saying “monkey” sounds suspiciously like being ticketed for a thought crime.

Does this tick you off? Click here to email your elected representatives right here on Say Anything, or comment below.

Exactly Anna.  Scratch your head on this one.  Folks need to get over words.  Sticks and stones not words.  Pure BS…

Plus to get a ticket for it.  Even more BS.

Could have been worse,
cops could have taken the kids away
and charged the mother with child endangerment.

How did the cops not just walk away from this incident.

“America” is a quaint notion which has yielded to a world patrolled by the PC police.
Toe the line or else get in line!

This seems to be clearly against the right of free speech.  This is what happens when people give liberals power.



Companies shouldn’t go to bed with the government because the government has herpes.  You can try your whole life but you’ll never get away from that one night.

Sheesh…

Ever hear about the drunk on a flight to Washington who kept harassing this woman traveling with her child. He kept over and over telling the woman how ugly the kid was.

Finally the stewardess brought her over a drink and told her not to worry about it, telling her that some people are just jerks.

As the attendant was about to leave she turned around and said “ Oh…and here’s a banana for your monkey“.

Can anyone find out who gave the ticket and what words are verboten on the police or campaign PC list of words this week?

Well, maybe she was lucky they were just in a tree and not on a porch.

All kids look like monkeys when climbing in trees.  Come on you thick-headed dunderheads.  Get over it, move on and focus on to more important issues.

Rob Hogan—They can’t.  They would loose their stück, and along with it all that “insulted” money, free housing, medical, transportation and food stamps.  Why work for a living when you can make others pay for your lifestyle.
