Don't know much about history

You would think that lefties in South Carolina, of all places, would know a thing or two about this kind of thing:

Vandals spray-painted the words “Republican means slavery” on the door of the York County GOP campaign headquarters overnight Friday.

Oh, right, they're probably well aware of which party fought to free the slaves and which party fought not just against that, but for segregation and Jim Crow, too. They're just flinging poo.

Oh, and how's this for some irony (with my emphasis):

In York County, Republican leader Glenn McCall is among the first African-American [sic] to chair a county party in South Carolina. He’s also one of two black representatives on the 100-member Republican National Committee.

McCall said he believes the vandals were trying to influence voters at a time when polls show a tight contest.

“It just goes to show the election is much closer than folks would have you believe,” McCall said. “We have probably the most liberal ticket on the Democratic side that we’ve ever seen. When I look at the polls, it’s within the margin of error. There are people who are just getting nervous about that. As a result, they do desperate things.”

While I'm not sure I'd like to be the chairman of a county GOP organization right about now, I kind of doubt the experience is akin to being human chattel.
