A Florida Republican congressional candidate’s campaign sign was vandalized with whiteface paint last week in a district with overwhelmingly Democratic voter registration. The attack follows a string of bias incidents against black Republicans.

Glo Smith, who reports that she has also had a number of signs stolen, tells National Review Online she became aware of the racist defacement of an eight-foot-by-four-foot sign Tuesday. The sign was situated on private property in view of Interstate 10 in Jacksonville. The vandal sprayed white paint over the face of Smith, who is African-American. The paint job appears to be carefully done and leaves the eyes untouched, creating a very creepy effect.

Liberalism is a monolithic religion...you either hold ONE opinion (theirs) or you are fair game to be demonized and shunned. They're sort of like the ISIS terrorists in Syria and Iraq right now, who crucified several Muslims because they were too moderate. Scratch a modern-day Liberal and you'll find someone with gulags, re-education camps, and death camps on their mind...secretly, of course, they would NEVER admit to such a thing, but they really are the ideological cousins of the NAZI movement.

Being a conservative black has got to be extremely hard.  I hope the RNC goes the extra mile for them when they run for office and start pushing back on all this racist bigotry.

Not likely. Many black conservatives are closer to the TEA Party than they are to establishment republicans.

I think what I find most disgusting is the Liberal belief that their ideology absolves them of ANY transgression.

That is so racist!!!!!!!!!!

Where is Eric Holder and why isn't he investigating this as a hate crime?

You beat me to it.

I suppose if one had defaced some useless CBC members' campaign advertising, they might notice.  There's no way covering a photograph of Corrine Brown or Maxine Waters in spray paint could make it any worse.

Thank you for that quote, Gina.  H5 given.
