Rep. David Scott (D-GA) just appeared on CNN, discussing the swastika that was recently painted on his district office. And he also shared some very disturbing hate mail that he said he’d received lately — before the swastika incident.
Scott showed a letter similar to one received by Rep. Brian Baird (D-WA), showing the President Obam-as-Joker picture with the message, “Death to all Marxists! Foreign and Domestic!” The letter contained a message for Scott, who is black: “To: NIGGA DAVID SCOTT / You were / You are / And / You shall forever be a nigga!” It added, “The Ethiopian cannot make himself white.”
Another letter said that Scott will go down in defeat at the next election, “and any of your colored constituents ain’t gonna stop it. The folks are not going to stand for socialized medicine, even though most negroes refuse to stand on their own two feet.”
“But we have to understand is,” Scott said, “we can’t let these kinds of racist things, or that swastika, win this debate. And that is not gonna happen.”
