How hypocritical are Democrats?

While Barack Obama still defends the outrageously racist comments made by his pastor, an Illinois delegate to the DNC, one who was for Obama, has resigned after being given a $75 ticket for "disorderly conduct" by local police. The details of her "crime" are explained in the Belleville News -Democrat...

The incident took place Saturday, when two children were playing in a tree next door to Ramirez-Sliwinski's house.

She said the parents were outside supervising the children, but she went over and told them to get out of the tree because she was concerned about the boys' safety and because the small magnolia tree was being damaged.

The father of one of the boys told her it was none of her business, she said, and "I calmly said the tree is not there for them to be climbing in there like monkeys."

The mother of one boy called police.

Cmdr. Michael Kilbourne said a ticket was issued because the ordinance bans conduct that disturbs or alarms people, and one of the boys told police he was scared by her comment.

This is the double standard Barack Obama intends for America under his administration. We should be very afraid.

Why is a cop giving a ticket for someone using the word monkey in regards to children climbing in trees like...well...monkeys? Why wouldn't the child's mother have been referred to psychiatric help for irrationally being afraid of the word "monkey"? And why is this Democrat delegate so passively going along with this nonsense and allowing herself to be punished when she was trying to to something good (protect both the children and the tree)?

CORRECTION: Read too fast. Apparently it was the son who is afraid of the word "monkey" not the mother. The mother's the one who called the cops, who then issued a ticket for saying "monkey" while white.
