Fight over who gets to drink 'good beer' leads to arrest of former KKK leader, son in rural Florida

A fight over who gets to drink the "good beer" led to the arrest of a former Ku Klux Klan leader and his son in rural east Osceola County, the Sheriff's Office said.

Troy Hixon, 45, his girlfriend, another woman and his father, George Hixon, 73, were drinking Wednesday night when Troy Hixon threw his girlfriend down and began shooting into the ground near her, a sheriff's report states.

George Hixon served time in federal prison in the late 1980s for possessing an unregistered machine gun. When drug agents searched his home at the time, they found evidence that he was a leader of the Ku Klux Klan in Osceola County, they said at the time.

Troy Hixon's girlfriend, whose name was not released, told deputies that an argument began after she complained that she was forced to drink cheap beer while the men drank "good beer" — Budweiser, according to the report. She also said someone poured beer on her while she was on the ground, and she heard a can crumple.

Wait...
Budweiser was the good beer? or the cheap beer?

When Charlton Heston said “You truly are the King Of Kings”
He was not referring to Budweiser!

It would appear that in this neighborhood Budweiser is the good beer. I’m guessing the girlfriend has to drink Schlitz?

What brand was the "good beer"?

For who? I don't think Rubio (Cuban), Crist (Twinkletoes) or Meeks (Black) met their high standards.

When I first moved to Texas heard a girl order a “Kirlaht” and I though..”Hmmm, that must be some regional drink”

Then I saw that it was a Coors Light Lol!

This ranks right up there with the Ohio guy who wacked his brother’s skull with a crowbar over a piece of fried chicken a few days ago. Their mother later admitted she was the one who took a bite out of the chicken.

I stopped at a McDonalds in Louisiana back in the 70s and the lady behind the counter asked me if I wanted sout. A back and forth ensued in which she finally ended up shouting sout, sout and holding up a fist full of salt packets. All the customers were looking at me as if I was the village idiot.

Tough to understand regional dialects sometimes.

Plain wrap! I remember that. When it came out, I kind of thought the concept of USA Today was similar and they should rename it “Newspaper”.
