As John Lewis - an elected member of Congress - was walking to a meeting with the President, people starting yelling "nigger" at him. Do you not know John Lewis. Here is part of his biography (I pulled it from Wikipedia, so the numbers are documented references)
.
Lewis was instrumental in organizing student sit-ins, bus boycotts and non-violent protests in the fight for voter and racial equality. He endured brutal beatings by angry mobs and suffered a fractured skull at the hands of Alabama State police as he led a march of 600 people in Selma, Ala. in 1965.[3][4]
Lewis became nationally known during his prominent role in the Selma to Montgomery marches. During the first march police attacked the peaceful demonstrators and beat Lewis mercilessly in public, leaving head wounds that are still visible today. At the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom of 1963, Lewis, a representative of [SNCC], the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, was the youngest speaker.[5]

So, as voting to provide health care to uninsured Americans - even if you think his vote is wrong, this non-violent man honored by both Republicans and Democrats in this country was called a nigger. Another black member of Congress was spit on - he did not press charges after capital police arrested the "protester". I am not sure what you are protesting as you scream nigger and spit on black congressmen, but that is what they were reported as.
.
As for Barney Frank, people yelled faggot and homo, but that is less annoying for 2 reasons. 1) We fags use the word ourselves to take away it's power. Any homo over the age of 25 has had faggot screamed at them more than a million times. And 2) It is perfectly legal to discriminate against us. In 27 states you can fire us for being faggots if we are honest. In the Air Force a Staff Sergeant was outed by the Rapid City South Dakota police department because they were mad and the military fired her. So hating faggots is pretty much legal.
.
The headlines all say things like "Congressman called N Word" or "John Lewis called n*****r." Hey, if we are going to tolerate this, if Glen Beck says Obama is racist against White People, if the Republicans are standing on the Capital balcony and egging them on (which they did), then own it baby. You called a great man a nigger, cheered the yell and then spit on the other black Congressman. You were able to call out a faggot for the benefit of those that might not know. Your arguments are not compelling and your hatred is obvious. Own it baby.
