A Georgia state congresswoman ignited the #IStandWithErica trend on social media this weekend after she recorded an emotional video claiming a man told her to "go back to where she came from" at a grocery store — and now the man accused of the bigoted verbal attack has responded. State Representative Erica Thomas, an African American lawmaker in Georgia's 39th District, teared up in the video as she recounted a Friday incident at a Cobb County Publix grocery store, where she said Eric Sparkes verbally attacked her. But as Atlanta's WSB-TV prepared to interview her outside the Publix Saturday afternoon, Sparkes

The cow is a female Jussie Smollett. Oh wait, Jussie is a "female" too, isn't he/she? Life is so confusing these days. Bad behavior seems to go with all of these AA congress-critters.

This is why I have started to shop for groceries online. She got in a checkout line for 15 or less items, claimed she was weak because she is pregnant, and seems to believe because she is a state legislator she doesn't have to follow the rules. Her profile makes it difficult to know if she is pregnant and where is the lucky husband? The man who asked her if she could count to 15 is nuts. Jumbo could crush him like a bug. It's up to the store's management to enforce rules. Road Rage. Super Market Rage. Auto Theft. Auto Vandalism. Home Invasions. The fun never ends in metro Atlanta.

Bravo Sierra of a story, but what else can you expect from the left.

It's a racial thing.
Comes with the territory.
Runs in the families.

I’m surprised this is in Newsweak. What am I missing? Is it actually showing someone (white) standing up to a person of color who is blatantly a lying racist? A random act of journalism perhaps, as Rush would say?

You notice she was said to walk back the part about “go back to where you came from.”
The man denied saying that but did say he called her a b***h.
I can’t argue with him on that.

And in explaining himself, he admits to being a Democrat. They are turning on their own.

Remember this: Demonrats lie with impunity and make up stories that the drive-by propaganda media can glorify for them. I call this story fake, fake, fake.

They've doubled down on their disparaging comments toward a huge voting citizenry, as if to say, "We'll lie about you, verbally assault you, misrepresent the truth of any matter to get elected. So, elect us and give us the opportunity to destroy all you hold dear through legislation, too."
The Left is collectively (no pun intended) insane!

I blame Sister Rose Marie.
It was in the third grade when I first heard her yell:"Let the girls win.....once in a while."
That's when the true toxic nature of slippery feminist do-goodery and 'social justice' began to dawn on me.
As a counter measure to 'Social Justice' I propose a campaign to promote "Poetic Justice"
wherein the pompous harpy buttinskys and 'organizers' get to spend their golden years working the pit at Jiffy-Lube changing the filthy-rancid-carcinogenic motor oil of the every-day folks they have lied to and cheated.
....the ninth level of Dante's inferno being much too crowded with Commies and Kennedys already.

Gentlemen, #15, don't need a Sister Rose Marie to tell; them to let a woman win once in a while. That is the technique gentlemen use to go along, and get along, with their women.

With great respect for the decades of hilarious genius served up by lakerman.....one would ask only that good manners not be conflated with law and it's attendant enforcement.
----Cheers !

This is a case of black privilege, don’t you know? But Mr. Sparks should have kept his mouth shut. By speaking up like he did, he called out the gentlelady thereby embarrassing her leading to this kerfuffle. She showed her arrogance by making up the story, because in Atlanta, she is privileged. Now hear is what is going on. The Democrats are provoking us into a race war, and if it happens, it’s going to be ugly, it happened in Newark and Detroit and left permanent scars on those cities. But to take this further, Mr. Sparks showed that he is a moron because he said that he is a Democrat and will always vote Democrat. What further proof does one need?

I'm afraid this will be a new trend. In this case the accused defends himself while accuser says he should be going to jail.
