MSNBC clips black man with assault rifle from town hall video and talks about "white people showing up with guns"

If this were any channel except MSNBC, it would be hard to believe. They show a video clip of a man carrying an assault rifle at an Arizona town hall. The video is edited to not show a full shot of the man. Then, they go on a rant about "racial overtones....white people showing up with guns" and "anger about a black person being president..." The man with the assault rifle was black.

Here is the MSNBC video hiding the race of the gun toter.



Here is a CNN video showing the armed individual is a black man.

White people would have been "hauled" away for sure.

MSNBC is completely off the reservation. These guys make up the news to suit their views.

Sounds like there may have been more than one guy with an AR-15 at that rally. While tere's plenty of tape of the one black guy, a CNN reporter on the scene says there was another guy, a white guy, also with an AR-15.

And, since it turns out it was all a publicity stunt for an ultrarightwingnut Internet radio talk show, it might have been that the white guy who "interviewed" the black guy with the AR-15 MAY have been carrying the rifle himself before the black guy put it on.

But yeah, complain about how us white guys have it so bad in today's society!

You are really reaching and falling short. The man on the MSNBC tape is the same black guy on the CNN tape. Check the clothing. Are you seriously trying to defend this outrageous deception by MSNBC?
