County GOP secretary called black NFL players ‘baboons’ in Facebook post

“Tired of these over paid ignorant blacks telling me what I should believe in. I will tell you what I believe in and that is our Flag the National Anthem and America period end of story,” she wrote. “You don’t like it here go to Africa see how you like it there. We are all Americans not African American not Hispanic American. WE ARE ALL AMERICAN.”

“Steelers are now just as bad as the rest of the over paid baboons. You respect your flag, country and our national anthem. How many men and women have lost limbs or died to protect this country and you baboons want respect,” she wrote. “If you want respect you need to earn it and so far you haven’t. Stop watching, or going to a game and paying for over priced food, water and tickets. Let’s see how the baboons get paid when white people stop paying their salaries.”

Countdown to Goosie posting links of other people using the word "baboons"...

I would submit that a steady diet of social media and the 24 hour news cycle will be what the death of America is attributed to. We're witnessing it right now.

But in the late 60's early 70's it was bad, I witnessed it get better. You can't tell me we haven't taken a step back, because we have. Big time we have.
