Alabama football player booted for calling Obama ‘n*gger’ during Newtown speech | The Raw Story: A University of Northern Alabama football player has reportedly been kicked off the team after he sent out a racist tweet during President Barack Obama’s speech at a vigil for the victims of last week’s school massacre in Newtown, Connecticut.
While the president was speaking to the grieving residents of Newtown on Sunday night, DeadSpin noted that a number of football fans sent out insensitive tweets because the 49ers-Patriots game had been preempted by the speech.
“Take that n*gger off the tv, we wanna watch football,” one Twitter user named Bradley Patterson wrote.
