Actress Tamera Mowry-Housley took to Twitter to express her gratitude for the support she has received after vile and hateful bigoted attacks. You see, this happened:

What in the world is wrong with people? As Twitchy readers know, Mowry-Housley has been on the receiving end of such vicious hate before.
@TameraMowryTwo I just watched you and Tia and you had me crying about hate. I too am a product of black father white mother and understand

That is the response of the sane. Not so sane?

Seek help, sickos.
Mowry-Housley’s husband, Fox journo Adam Housley also took to Twitter with his response:

More from Mediaite:
Earlier today we reported on OWN’s special interview with TV star Mowry, in which she tearfully recounted being called a “white man’s whore,” among other slurs. Speaking with TVNewser, Housley excoriated those who wish to cut down their relationship.
“The fact that in this day and age, we get attacked for our interracial relationship is beyond sad…it is pathetic,” he said. “Yes I am white. Yes she is half black. Marrying a white man does not erase her color and marrying a woman who is half black does not mean I am blinded. The problem isn’t pigmentation…the problem is backwards, bigoted thought from people who should know better.”
Amen. And as Twitchy has documented, the progressives of pallor are the worst offenders. Scratch a leftist, find a bigot.
Housley also received support from Twitter users like these:
@adamhousley u and Tamera are an amazing couple. Some people are not happy unless they are putting others down. Be strong, God is with u

@adamhousley I was actually being serious. Your family doesn't deserve it, no matter who you work for.
— ickycomomo (@ickycomomo) January 15, 2014

— Adam Housley (@adamhousley) January 15, 2014
Housley then brought it all home with grace and humor:
Funny…some people just can't be nice…ever. My last tweet is just one example. Wont call em all out, but some are hard to pass up
— Adam Housley (@adamhousley) January 15, 2014
Meantime….Tamera and I are so very appreciative of all the support. Now onto my story today…Justin Beiber throwing eggs. LOL

We stand with you, Housleys. May your days continue to be filled with love and joy.
