An activist author ignited a social media firestorm on Thursday after saying she was left “very confused” seeing a black man with a pro-NRA and Tea Party bumper-sticker on his car.
Kimberley Johnson, a feminist contributor to HuffPost and the spokeswoman for the national advocacy group We Are Woman, was slammed for questioning why a black person would not embrace progressive politics.
“Out on the road the other day I saw an affluent black man driving a BMW with two bumper-stickers. One was pro-NRA and the other one was a Tea Party sticker that read, ‘Don't tread on me,’” she wrote in a now-deleted tweet. “This left me very confused.”
She was immediately condemned, with most social media users accusing her of racism. “It's not confusing to people who don't judge others based on their skin tone. You should try it,” wrote user.
“One of the most racist things ever are people who think black people MUST all think alike and vote for the same party,” tweeted journalist Jason Howerton.
Johnson attempted to defend her tweet, saying she was merely “confused” and didn’t mean to tell black Americans who they should support. “It's not about skin tone. It's about people voting against their own interests. The same can be said for anyone who isn't rich and white,” she wrote in one tweet.
She also accused the Tea Party movement and the GOP of not representing everyone and helping only “white, rich men.”
Amid the turmoil, the author erased the controversial tweet and explained the reason for the deletion. “I deleted a tweet that questioned why African Americans would support the Tea Party, and people saw that as racist. I do not see the GOP working in the best interests of people of color or women. I never said anyone should vote any particular way. I said it confused me,” Johnson tweeted.
“I deleted it because people were putting words in my mouth and changing my original intent. FOR THE RECORD: I do not believe everyone should vote the way I do. However, I am free to wonder what motivates people to vote,” she added.

Jim ShugartSoooo... Let me summarize this for you Kimberly.
You thought all black people were stupid welfare niggers and you're shocked to find one who is successful, supports conservative values, and his rights to self-defense. Is that about it, Kimmie?

Chris AnchorOver the years I have found that patriots/shooters/hunters seem to come in all colors and genders. I never read that firearms, hunting and the American way was just for fat old white guys. Me thinks she should get out of her bubble and see the real world. Chris, a almost fat old white guy.

tacfoleyHere in yUK our little gun club has at least five black shooters that I know of, as well as a goodly sprinkling originally from the Indian sub-continent -India and Pakistan. No real Asians, though, AFAIAW. As there are over 400 members, and I only see the same crowd most of the time, I'm betting that at least a few of the rest are non-white.
My pal Hiron, a professional aikido trainer who runs his own dojo, is black, but as with people here in yUK, doesn't advertise his politics or religion. We also have three brothers - black - and occasionally one of the wives. All are very keen shooters who shoot trap and skeet, too.

PS - Hiron has sparred and occasionally fought with Mr S. Seagal, and opines that far from being a fake, he is VERY good, even in his dotage. Hiron spent a lot of time admiring the grain of the flooring in Mr Seagal's dojo, he admits.

lastmanstandingReality and truth are a double punch that have been knocking out a lot of lefties lately.
First the Wilkinson social justice loser who threw Sarah Sanders out of her restaurant and now this racist fool.
The reaction when they step in the dung pile of their own making and realizes it's got a bad stink that sticks to 'em is a train wreck I can watch all day long!
