Prominent Tea Partier Says Michael Brown’s Parents Received ‘Taxpayer-Funded Abortion’

Former executive director of the South Carolina Republican Party Todd Kincannon sent out a tweet Wednesday evening saying Michael Brown’s parents shouldn’t be upset because they are pro-choice Democrats and “they got a taxpayer-funded abortion.” Kincannon, whose history of making outrageous statements on Twitter led to his account being suspended last year, has relentlessly tweeted out inappropriate and offensive comments related to Brown and Ferguson. Brown was shot and killed by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson on August 9th....

I would think that no matter which way you come down on the Darren Wilson-Michael Brown debate, you’d at least have to acknowledge that this is utterly disgusting. Of course, this is just how Kincannon rolls. There’s a reason why he was suspended from Twitter in the past. In fact, the account he is using now is not his original account, but a new one he opened after the old one was shut down. Earlier this year, he called Wendy Davis a “whore” and “soulless prostitute” who should have “been aborted.” Therefore, it was not a shock when he combined Davis and Brown together for another ‘joke.’

Obviously, Kincannon thinks of himself as a pot-stirrer, a button-pusher, a provocateur. He’s getting a rise out of people, specifically liberals, progressives and minorities, and entertaining the Tea Party-types that lap it up. And, it would be fine to easily dismiss him as just another attention-seeking jerk who is just saying outrageous things for the sake of saying them. He’s even claimed in the past that is all he is doing. However, this man actually led a state’s Republican Party. Of course, the South Carolina GOP wants nothing to do with him now as he is toxic. But, at one time, he held a prominent position with them.

Currently, it would appear that Kincannon’s job is seeing how many racist, sexist and all-around offensive tweets he can send in a given day and then engaging both his Twitter supporters and opponents. Whether it is saying anyone exposed to Ebola should be killed or insisting that transgender people be put into concentration camps, he will find something to say that will make normal people wretch. In the end, he’ll claim he’s just ‘joking,’ but I think we all know he is truly speaking his mind and giving angry, white, racist conservatives someone to look up to and retweet.

Another one for the Kincannon highlight reel.

1. If only such cruel comments could get him karmic "reward" in hell...

He is surely earning such a fate

[randys1]

2. WHERE DO YOU GET TAX PAYER FUNDED ABORTIONS?

[KamaAina]

3. Perhaps in some other country

Apparently this moran has never heard of the Hyde Amendment.

4. he thought he was being clever

he was saying that the Ferguson Mo police officer who murdered Mike Brown is the one who provided the tax payer funded abortion for Mike Browns parents.

Not even remotely funny.

7. No, he's saying that the Michael Brown shooting was a taxpayer-funded abortion.

Hyardeehyarhyar, their child was shot by a police officer, so it was taxpayer-funded, yukyukyuk, geddit? Itza funny funny joke, hardheeharhar.




Just in case: Not even a bit funny. Bliksem

[riqster]

16. I think you are right.

[Initech]

12. Definitely not in the United States!

5. Nothing said by these brain-dead, mouth-breathing

belching, wheezing, flatulent reichwing orcs surprises me anymore. Not even this.

We are done as a society.

6. Obviously Todd Kincannon's parents were victims of a botched abortion

[Dirty Socialist]

8. If it is true

Isn't it against the law to divulge confidential medical information?

[yewberry]

10. He's not saying that anyone literally had an abortion.

He's saying that their child was killed by police--the police are taxpayer funded.

[JaneyVee]

9. Jesus Christ. Where do they find these people?!

[gratuitous]

11. So, what does Sen. Graham think of Mr. Kincannon?

I know that it's hard to get Sen. Lindsay Graham of South Carolina anywhere near a camera and a live mic, but perhaps if some lucky Sunday show can land a "get" with Sen. Graham, someone could ask him about his fellow Palmetto State Republican's comments: Does Sen. Graham think it's humorous to describe Michael Brown's murder as a taxpayer-funded abortion? Is that the sort of thing South Carolina Republicans think about tragic incidents? If he doesn't think it's very funny, would he be willing to tell Todd Kincannon to shut up?

But then, why should Sen. Graham wait to be asked? Why doesn't he get out there right now and condemn Kincannon's odious comment?

13. "Obviously, Kincannon thinks of himself as a pot-stirrer."

More like a $h!t slinger. How disgusting.

[KamaAina]

15. Or perhaps a pot-smoker.
