Folks, in the original article, the Washington Post suggested that the duo who recorded the ACORN tapes were motivated by racism.
The correction states,
“This article about the community organizing group ACORN incorrectly said that a conservative journalist targeted the organization for hidden-camera videos partly because its voter-registration drives bring Latinos and African Americans to the polls. Although ACORN registers people mostly from those groups, the maker of the videos, James E. O’Keefe, did not specifically mention them.”
I am sick and tired of being called a racist. There are a lot of Americans with a lot of anger brewing…This kind of crap better stop, or bad things will begin to happen…

Those who are calling us racist want something bad to happen. They are goading us into doing something stupid. The March on DC on 9/12 had upwards of 1 million people. No windows were broken, no fights broke out, no clashes with police. It was a peaceful demonstration. Compare that to anti-globalization protests with much fewer people. We just need to ignore the taunts and stay focused on what our message is. Calling us racist is a tactic to distract from the real issue. If they tried to challenge us in a straight debate, they would lose.
