How about this:

¨Sean Toon, who called police to complain about group of black teenagers trying to enter a party on Friday, was jailed for violent behaviour and animal torture¨

He was ((Hannity’s)) source for saying that Casebolt handled the whole thing pretty well.
EDIT: He was on ¨The Kelly File¨ w/ Megyn Kelly, then the ran the clip on ¨Fox and Friends¨. Don’t know if Hannity used him.

The identity of the lardass in the beige polo shirt, and just wtf he was doing there, remains protected by our ever vigilant MSM, however.

To be fair, he’s one of Hannity’s more credible sources.

He looks like a Hannity fan.

Looks like he could lift a ton but not spell it.

From where we sat observing Ferguson, post-murder of Michael Brown–
to where we observe the fallout from McKinney TX–
we are watching a slow-erosion of the privileged protection of racism.

Thanks to both modern technology (cellphone video)-- and the protecting of corporate brands–
we’re witnessing a powerful fulcrum leveraging itself against a societal ill-- quite effectively–
over a period of just 9 or ten months.

Racists have always felt impervious to public pressures.
But that changes with empirical evidence-- and a consumer-public with an increasing desire
to weed out the small-minded-- when individual ugliness and criminal behavior goes viral.

This is a civic movement that has begun to gain momentum.
And I don’t see it abating.

Cue the right wing “free speech” defenders who think free speech means freedom of consequences from hate speech…

Nice work! That story should be on the front page of TPM (I sent an email to TPM to consider this). It needs to be known on a wide basis.

Next up: A LAWSUIT from her claiming her “Religious Freedumbs” have been violated as HER RELIGION says all Blacks are “Mud People”.
This will get very, very ugly in Texas.

Twitter users have chastised Sean Toon, the white McKinney resident who called the police to the community pool, with the hashtag #SeanToon 911.

I don’t know, without more information that seems unnecessary. I mean, if there was an actual physical fight, I would probably call 911 too no matter who was involved. And since it was two fat white women against one much smaller black girl, the cops should have been called. On the white women.

Now if he has done anything chastise-able since then, that is a different story, but that information is not in this story.

Late edit after replies: Apparently the nature of the 911 call (reporting the black kids, not the racism), and his continued support of Casebolt are the real reason for the criticism, as well they should be. I did not know those things because it was not made clear in the article. Based on the article I thought the criticism was for calling 911, which as I said before, I probably would have as well, but for different reasons.

I know you’re joking, but I’m not so sure that this wouldn’t be a good thing. Nothing would more clearly expose the wrongness of these state ‘religious freedom’ laws than what you suggest.

No. I’m not joking.

So if I read my Jeb Bush correctly, exposing people to public ridicule is a perfectly acceptable means of enforcing public morality. And a ‘revenue sensitive’ company is not going to hesitate to get rid of employees who damage the image of their company and endangers profits.

This conservative lady is enjoying the well deserved fruits of Karma in a capitalist economy nee oligarchy. There are no ethics at play here, merely Cause and Effect.

I also read (grain of salt) that he’s friends with the two white women involved with starting the altercation, a fact that Megyn Kelly failed to disclose when she interviewed him.

Thanks! But note that I might have been wrong about his being on Hannity, though he was on ¨The Kelly File¨ and ¨Fox and Friends¨.

A Looney Tune for sure:

“In November 1999, aged 18, Toon and three high school friends were arrested and expelled from school after vandalising the agricultural centre of a rival high school district and attacking animals housed there, many of which were owned and cared for by school children.
Cows and pigs were cut and bruised, apparently beaten with wooden boards. And baby turkeys were slain, their limbs torn apart,” the Dallas Morning News reported at the time. Dale Gardner, a teacher in the school district’s agriscience and technology program, told the newspaper: “It was brutal. There’s no way to describe it. I’ve never seen anything like it.” …
Animals and buildings were covered in green and gold paint, according to reports. These were the colours of Toon’s high school.”

Going on TV to support Casebolt’s behavior surely counts.
