AURORA, Ind. - A small town in Indiana is outraged after a shocking float made an appearance in a parade over the weekend.

But its creator told Newsy's partners at WCPO he didn't mean to upset anyone.
"It's all in fun. Laughter is the best medicine in life, and this country needs more laughter. And the people that are offended by it, I'm sorry. Don't come to the parade next time," Frank Linkmeyer said.
The float, which appeared to show Hillary Clinton in an electric chair with Donald Trump getting ready to pull the switch, was one of nearly 200 attractions in this year's Aurora Farmers Fair.
The float also included a black Easter Island head along with a sign that read, "President Obama."

These headline writers think they are too clever by half.
To: rightwingintelligentsia
See, making fun of conservatives and Christians is witty and enjoyable.
Anyone other than that? You’re a pariah.
To: rightwingintelligentsia
Maybe, but the float will probably get Trump more volts votes.

Did the float developer consult Secretary Kerry? John Effin’ Kerry is a self-declared expert on electrocuting people.

While the potential is great, it’s important to remember to stay grounded.

In order to be grounded, we see it as our charge to keep a keen eye on current events.

I remember being somewhat concerned as a kid when my Mom would say, “Your Dad is upset that you didn’t mow the lawn today.”, or, my Sergeant in the Air Force was mad because I missed formation, or, my boss would be upset that I was late, but...
I hardly ever break a sweat when a headline says that a democrat/liberal/BLM, LGBTQ, or amuslim was OUTRAGED about ANYTHING.
In fact, I think it’s funny as hell.
