Giants Fan Threw Banana at Orioles Adam Jones

There’s a chance that this wasn’t an act of racism, but it’s minimal at best.
Instead of celebrating a 10-2 series clinching win over the defending World Series champs San Francisco Giants, Baltimore Orioles outfielder Adam Jones, took to twitter to voice his disgust with a fan who threw a banana at him.
I want to thank whatever slapdick threw that banana towards my direction in CF in the last inning. Way to show ur class u jackass.

This is the same gesture experienced by Black soccer players in Europe when racist fans refer to them as monkeys. What would make one human being commit such a hideous act? I don’t know.
The answer is simple……..they are white. I pray for the day we either a, stop trying to gain their acceptance, and/or b, we start killing them.
You forgot about Wayne Simmonds (Philadelphia Flyers) getting a banana thrown at him.
I don’t trust white people – period. Why, because whity has been racist towards me & my family. Now, it begins.
