The Onion (in serious mode) declares that Trump is a “Klansman” who by demanding Obama birth certificate was calling all black “niggers”

Paul at Stuff Black People Don’t Like quotes the web editor of The Onion, a black man named Baratunde Thurston, who says that Donald Trump’s campaign to get Obama to release his birth certificate has proved that blacks can never be part of America:

… I began to cry. I thought of my ancestors, both direct and collective, who had fought and died so that I might be treated as an American. I then thought of this fetid, smug, hate-filled, wealthy white man taking credit for the release and yet still not being satisfied. It does not matter how long we’ve been in these United States. We will never be American.

So, tears in my eyes, pain in my heart and rage in my soul, I composed this video message. More than written text, it comes close to expressing my full pain at witnessing a white man who was handed everything call the President of the United States (and me) a nigger.

Paul goes on to say that Baratunde’s remarks show that in the minds of blacks (and I would add, of white liberals), any criticism of Obama (if it comes from white non-liberals) is racist.

And let us remember how the liberal media treat the murder of whites by blacks who murder whites because whites are, according to the murderers, “racist.” As we saw in the case of Omar Thornton’s mass murder of his employers at the Hollander family’s beer distributorship in Connecticut last summer (here and here), the media treated the murders as implicitly justified or at least understandable, by immediately focusing on the supposed racism of the victims and making the victims the objects of moral scrutiny rather than the black man who had mass murdered them.

And let us further remember that according to much of the liberal media, all white people who oppose Obamacare, all white people who said that Obama had concealed his birth certificate and who wanted to see it, are racists. Therefore, by the logic of the Omar Thornton case, if any black person were to murder any of these “racist” whites, the act would be, at the very least, understandable. In short, if you’re a white non-liberal in liberal America, or even if you’re a white liberal (the Hollanders were liberals), and a black person takes it into his mind to kill you, your life is forfeit. Your death will be seen as an acceptable penalty paid for the sin of white racism.

And now we understand why the liberal media and the liberal authorities never identify the racial nature of the ongoing intifada of racially specific black-on-white violence in this country. To do so would be to suggest that black-on-white violence is wrong. But liberals don’t believe that black-on-white violence is wrong.

Trump was “handed everything,” yet the narrative of Obama is what? That he worked the nightshift at an urban liquor store to put himself through law school? Obama is the product of an affirmative action system that handed him everything, too. (I’ll admit that Trump grew up with privilege.) Amusingly, Thurston attended Sidwell Friends and Harvard University. May I see your transcripts, Mr. Thurston?
