"Helms was fired from her job at a Cold Stone Creamery ice-cream store in Turlock. Her former boss, Chris Kegle, called the Obama slur on Facebook "very disgusting."
I wonder if she was anti-chocolate on the job.
"Helms also said she wasn’t a racist -- despite her use of the most inflammatory word out there -- because she has black friends."
I guess its okay then; she probably used an "A" at the end instead of "ER" to clarify her postion. Because afterall, she HAD "black friends."

Like this is a surprise:
Helms told Fox 40 that her profile had been set to private, and her mother said that an ex-boyfriend of Helms' re-posted a screen shot of the status update on Twitter, allowing everyone on the Internet to see the comments.
The backlash was swift.
Helms lost her job as a store manager at a local Cold Stone Creamery, and the Modesto/Stanislaus NAACP contacted Cold Stone Creamery officials about the incident. According to the Modesto Bee, the store received about 20 angry messages about Helms on Thursday.
When pressed about the post, Helms said she was not a racist.
“It does [sound like I'm a racist],” Helms said, “but I am not. That’s what everyone’s been telling me, ‘You know, what you said sounded so racist,’ and it does, and you know, I take it back. If I could erase what I said, I would.”
Visit Fox 40 for the full report.
Helms also said she's been in contact with local law enforcement on a "just in case" basis after receiving numerous threats, CNET notes.
Last week Cold Stone's Twitter feed was besieged by angry tweets, and the company has worked hard to disassociate itself with Helms.

The crime here is a photoshopped Facebook image vs what she looks like in real life.
Fraud trumps stupidity.
