A central Pennsylvania Republican official who referred to black NFL players who kneel during the national anthem as “baboons” in a Facebook post has resigned.
Former Beaver County Republican Committee secretary Carla Maloney resigned Friday in a letter to the committee’s chairman. Maloney apologized for her “insensitive” posts and said she would “work to show everyone” who she is.
Maloney called the players “baboons” on her personal Facebook account in response to athletes who have knelt during the national anthem to protest social injustice. In another post, she said “overpaid ignorant blacks” should “go to Africa.”
The Beaver County Republican Committee said in a statement that it had accepted Maloney’s resignation and denounced her comments.
Maloney couldn’t immediately be reached.

First I heard of the Jacksonville shooting last week, I had the television on, and they were interviewing a kid who used the term “nerdy looking Caucasian”, which was evidently okay. So I wonder why the second of the quotes in this headline is therefore bad then, other than the double-standard of racist language.
double-standard of racist language. that is the standard in our great country. Sadly.
Let stick to the politics and keep these smears off
All she did was call a spade a spade.

what is an ehrlicher shomer torah yid doing with a TV ??
Put the shoe on the other (our) foot. What if she talked about “overpaid fanatic Chassidic Jews” and said we should go back to Poland? Or called us “parasites?” And calling people names has a tendency to spread. Don’t protest when people call black Americans things like “baboon” and pretty soon they’ll be calling us “Zionist traitors.” What goes around comes around. And rest assured, if she doesn’t like black people she pretty likely doesn’t like Jewish people either, she’s just too smart to talk about it in public.
Come to think of it, why was she posting this stuff publicly, when she could always make it “friends only?” Not so bright.
And in other news: Leftist Democrats observed memorial service for late Aretha Franklin by seating the first row with well known Jew-hating racists and scumbags including Louis Farrakhan, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson together with Bill Clintoon (yamach shmom all of therm). I guess this bit of news is too much for YWN to print for balance.
