VIDEO: Hey Liberals, Can You Hear THIS Racist Dog Whistle?

Via Mediaite, we get this video of South Carolina Democratic Chairman Dick Harpootlian saying they hoped to send Nikki Haley, an Indian American—indeed, Sikh American—governor “back to wherever the hell she came from.”

Well, as a point of fact, Ms. Haley came from Bamberg, South Carolina.  So he is talking about sending her from one part of South Carolina to another...

...except we all know that isn’t what this is about.  What this is really about is the perpetual assumption that people from certain ethnicities are not even Americans.  Michelle Malkin deals with it on a regular basis when people tell her to go back where she came from (New Jersey, if memory serves).  At its ugliest, it reflects the attitude that only certain ethnicities are real Americans.

So will all the liberals who have somehow spun “reduce the debt” into “we hate black people,” will they suddenly attack Harpootlian for this apparently racist comment?  Not likely.  And to the extent they put him down they will treat this as an isolated incident.  They won’t use this even to tar the people who applauded what he said—or notice that there wasn’t a single “boo” in the house.  Nor will they notice that this kind of outright bigotry is par for the course for minorities or women who dare to be conservative.  That and, for women, sexual put downs borne from their own frustrated fantasies.

My wife and I have lost our jobs due to the harassment of convicted terrorist Brett Kimberlin, including an attempt to get us killed and to frame me for a crime carrying a sentence of up to ten years.  I know that claim sounds fantastic, but if you read starting here, you will see absolute proof of these claims using documentary and video evidence.  If you would like to help in the fight to hold Mr. Kimberlin accountable, please hit the Blogger’s Defense Team button on the right.  And thank you.

Disclaimer:

I have accused some people, particularly Brett Kimberlin, of reprehensible conduct.  In some cases, the conduct is even criminal.  In all cases, the only justice I want is through the appropriate legal process—such as the criminal justice system.  I do not want to see vigilante violence against any person or any threat of such violence.  This kind of conduct is not only morally wrong, but it is counter-productive.

In the particular case of Brett Kimberlin, I do not want you to even contact him.  Do not call him.  Do not write him a letter.  Do not write him an email.  Do not text-message him.  Do not engage in any kind of directed communication.  I say this in part because under Maryland law, that can quickly become harassment and I don’t want that to happen to him.

And for that matter, don’t go on his property.  Don’t sneak around and try to photograph him.  Frankly try not to even be within his field of vision.  Your behavior could quickly cross the line into harassment in that way too (not to mention trespass and other concerns).

And do not contact his organizations, either.  And most of all, leave his family alone.

The only exception to all that is that if you are reporting on this, there is of course nothing wrong with contacting him for things like his official response to any stories you might report.  And even then if he tells you to stop contacting him, obey that request.  That this is a key element in making out a harassment claim under Maryland law—that a person asks you to stop and you refuse.

And let me say something else.  In my heart of hearts, I don’t believe that any person supporting me has done any of the above.  But if any of you have, stop it, and if you haven’t don’t start.
