Darnell Byrd McPherson Pollen Hate Hoax

Moonbats will want to tip their propeller-topped beanies to Woman of Color Darnell Byrd McPherson, who has raised awareness about how evil and rotten America is by revealing that even the pollen in this country is racist, since some got on her car:

The mayor of a South Carolina town believed she was the target of a hate crime after cars belonging to her and her husband were dusted with a mysterious, “yellow, sticky substance.”

Local and state police investigated the claims made by Lamar Mayor Darnell Byrd McPherson, who reported that on February 7 at 10 p.m. local time, someone sprayed her 2017 Symphony Silver Hyundai Elantra Sport and her husband’s soft-top 1998 Buick Roadmaster with a residue outside of their home. …

She said her husband and [a] neighbor “started scraping all over” their cars to rid what she described as a “grainy substance” akin to industrial spray foam used to patch concrete. …

Setting in was the deafening fear of an attack.

Newsweek amplifies this “deafening fear” as best it can, referring to a 1970 newspaper article to confirm that an incident with racial overtones once occurred in Lamar, current population 959.

The memories of the past were front and center for Mayor McPherson upon seeing her car defaced.

“It ignited some fear in my spirit,” she said. “My God, who would do that?”

Midway down the article, Newsweek grudgingly mentions this:

Authorities, however, doubted a crime had occurred and claimed the substance was actually pollen.

However, gullible readers are left with the suspicion that the cops are not telling the truth. They destroyed the evidence:

“We found it to be pollen,” [Darlington County Sheriff’s Office Lieutenant Robby] Kilgo explained in an interview with Newsweek. “There was no reason for us to collect a sample.”

But maybe it was racist pollen. Without samples, we have no way to be sure.

Mayor McPherson stands by her claim of racist oppression:

Though the possibility was raised that the car’s mysterious coating could have been pollen and not the result of foul play, McPherson remained convinced someone was behind it.

Although she appears to be dumb enough to genuinely believe that the pollen on her car constitutes a hate crime, continuing to persist in this idiocy even after she had been disabused of the notion by the police qualifies her for the Hate Hoax List.

Ominously, McPherson had a suspect in mind. Some innocent person might have been punished because pollen falls from trees. She also yelps unconvincingly about plans to assassinate her. Maybe Lamar should look for a new mayor.
