Asymmetrical outrage
If this picture were of a white man in Mississippi with the stars and bars on his rear bumper, it would be the subject of hanky-twisting and gum-flapping from coast-to-coast, or at least on the coasts. Change the guy holding the sign to a bearded dude who might be "of color," and suddenly illiterate anti-Semitism is just another man's free speech.

I think you've got this guy wrong. He's anti-vegetarian.

If he's talking about grapefruit juice, I'm with him.
Seriously though TH, you are correct. Those that scream "racist", "bigot", and "prejudice" are always silent when these idiots march. I guess it's their way of showing "tolerance".

My fave is when 2 different protected minorities prey upon each other, and the media is utterly silent.
Like when Latino gangs murder random blacks in L.A., and the numbers soar into the hundreds.
Imagine if white people in some city were murdering black people? It would be an outrage right? Sure. Murder is bad.
But when illegals do it, I guess it's just no big deal.

In terms of comically misspelled signs expressing terrible political sentiments, this was my favorite one from the past election. It claims that Obama is a finely woven cotton fabric of unusual origin.

If the guy hates juice, does he drink Orange Jews at breakfast?

After years of hearing about G7 protestors, it's a nice change of pace to hear about a V8 protestor.

Upon further review, maybe he was just commenting on the O.J. trials.

. Change the guy holding the sign to a bearded dude who might be "of color,"
...and change the sign to say "I HATE HUNKIES", and it'd still be funny.

Perhaps it's a Limbaugh protestor, who just has not kept up with the news for the past few years?
