Racist Tweets About the New Miss America

Miss New York Nina Davuluri has been crowned the new Miss  America. Davuluri is Indian-American, which inspired racists and morons (and  racist morons) to register their complaints on Twitter. Some felt she isn’t  American (despite being born in Syracuse), other cracked wise about 7-Eleven,  while the most astute of the bunch saw a win for al Qaeda (despite the fact  that… oh, never mind).

Different kind of Indian than we normally report on, but,  unfortunatey, it’s the same old racism. We have to wonder what sort of nonsense  might spew forth if an American Indian won Miss America? Maybe instead of “not  American enough” the Tweeters would protest that she is too American.

Tip of the hat to BuzzFeed for collecting so many of  these:

@MeredithRoanell “This is Miss America… not Miss Foreign  Country”

@kathrynryan50 “shes like not even american and she won  miss america”

@EJRBuckeye “Well they just picked a Muslim for Miss  America. That must’ve made Obama happy. Maybe he had a vote”

@Granvil_Colt “And the Arab wins Miss America.  Classic.”

@Not_MissAmerica “More like Miss Terrorist #MissAmerica

@jakeamick5 “How the fuck does a foreigner win miss  America? She is a Arab! #idiots

@sarawhitton “this is America. not India”

@savannah_dale97 “Miss New York is an Indian.. With all do  respect, this is America”

@wnfraser “@ABC2020 nice slap in the face to the people of  9-11 how pathetic #missamerica

@SHANN___Wow “Miss America right now or miss Al  Qaeda?”

@JPLman95 “Miss America? You mean Miss 7-11.”

@kalebistoocute “Man our president nor our new Miss  America isn’t even American I’m sorry but Miss Kansas I salute you your the real  American #MissAmerica

@JTomes84 “Miss America is brought to by their sponsors PF  Changs and 7-11.”

@_AudreyAnn “Miss America is a terrorist. Whatever. It’s  fine.”

@Blayne_MkItRain “Congratulations Al-Qaeda. Our Miss  America is one of you.”

@anthonytkr “#MissAmerica ummm wtf?! Have we forgotten  9/11?”

@LukeBrasili “9/11 was 4 days ago and she gets miss  America?”

@ColtonSEvans “Egypt dancing? This is America. #MissAmerica
