Justice Thomas Called a ‘Slave,’ ‘Uncle Tom’ for ObamaCare Dissent

Not long after the Supreme Court ruled to uphold Obamacare, the Left took to the web to trash Justice Clarence Thomas.
Justice Thomas signed on to the dissenting opinion along with three other justices.
Justice Thomas is the only Black member on the bench, and his disagreement with the majority of the court made him the target of numerous racial slurs on the internet. Apparently, some on the Left believe that the color of your skin should dictate your interpretation of the Constitution.
Leftists on Twitter even said Thomas dissented because he ishaving "identity problems" and that he is really only "painted black" or has a "really good spray tan". 

Even though he stood up for what he believed was right, Justice Thomas is being berated as a race-hater. He was accused of only voting to strike down the law because he "don't want black people to prosper".
Unbeknownst to many on the Left, Obamacare does not benefit the black community. In fact, it will cause more hardship on all Americans, regardless of skin color.
Justice Thomas is a respected Supreme Court Justice who does not deserve to be called "Uncle Tom" or a "slave." Worse yet, Justice Thomas was also compared to "the Imperial Wizard of the KKK".

These racist comments are reprehensible. Even more horrendous is that these comments were mostly from other black men and women. I would never make a racial slur toward anyone, but for someone to call a fellow black man a slave is disgusting.
This is not the first time Justice Thomas is the target of racist remarks. It occurred following the Supreme Court ruling in favor of Citizens United in the now infamous Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission as well.
In a leftist rally, supporters were filmed making racial slurs. When asked what should be done after Justice Thomas was impeached, one man stated "put him back in the fields".
The leftist protesters even went as far as calling for Justice Thomas to be lynched. One woman said we should " string him up" and another man said we should "hang him".
The blatant hypocrisy of these "peace-seeking" liberals is astounding. One woman said that she was "all about peace" but suggested "torture" as the punishment for the Court's decision.
If a conservative ever made a similar comment directed at President Obama, both liberals and conservatives would be outraged. Where are the calls for "civility"? Where are Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton?
I admire Justice Thomas for standing up for his beliefs. He proved to me, once again, why he is one of my role models.
