I absolutely love it:

A Democratic Alabama state representative is under fire for a racially charged challenge he made last month that has backfired big time.Β TheBlaze reportedΒ that during a legislative session discussion on abortion rights, Rep. Alvin Holmes speculated his Republican counterparts would be in favor of abortion if black men impregnated their daughters. Rep. [Holmes] then offered to pay $100,000 cash to anyone who could show him a β€œbunch of whites” who have adopted black children in Alabama.

Well, the representative is now being asked to put his money where his mouth is after a Facebook group entitledΒ Faces of Families in AlabamaΒ began posting photos of multi-racial families in the state. The Facebook page has already garnered more than 7,000 β€˜likes,’ and on Wednesday, the group gathered on the steps of the State House to demonstrate just how many multi-racial, adoptive families reside in Alabama.

The Daily Mail has pictures of some of the beautiful families that were in attendance at the Wednesday rally. Time to put up or shut up on your offer, Rep. Holmes. Β But he won’t, and here’s his “official” reason why. In shorter terms, he’s a shameless race-baiting welcher.

Holmes, you may recall, also sneered on the floor of the Alabama state House a couple of months ago that he didn’t like Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas because Thomas is “married to a white woman.” Β Guy sounds like a real winner, eh? Now just imagine for five seconds Holmes was a Republican …
