I agree. Was anyone surprised when they interviewed the Hollywood homeowners and they were two effiminate men? Extrapolate.
But I thought it was art?
but she is only running for v.p. so it doesn’t count.
BULL CRAP!!
Palin Effigy 'Not A Hate Crime' ["Now, if there was a crime against bad taste..."] (Sky News Posted on Tuesday, October 28, 2008)
But the Los Angeles County sheriff's office said Mr Morrisette has not committed an official offence because the doll is part of a Halloween display."I'm not defending this; I'm not criticising it. It doesn't rise to the level of hate crime," said spokesman Steve Whitmore.
"Now, if there was a crime against bad taste..."
Mr Whitemore did say, however, that because potential hate crimes are looked at on a case-by-case basis, a complaint about an effigy of Barack Obama would have to be handled differently.
"That adds a whole other social, historical hate aspect to the display, and that is embedded in the consciousness of the country," he said.
It would be "ill-advised" for anyone to speculate on whether that would be a hate crime, he added.
after all they all look alike....oops...sorry mods....
In the 20th Century, union goons lynch American scab workers.
“Did the Mayor of West Hollywood apologize to Governor Palin and her family? Nah, I didn’t think so.”
Yeah....still waiting for that one. I was just commenting to someone at work this morning about the Palin lynching in W Hollywood. I mentioned how the creeps that created that “art” didn’t have the real balls to hang a mannequin looking like Obama next to it.
When they found it, the effigy had money in its wallet that belonged to other people. Next, investigators asked the effigy if it knew Bill Ayers, it said "no, he's just some guy from my neighborhood". Finally, detectives noticed the effigy had big, funny looking ears; that was the final tipoff.
Here in Texas we call them faggots or queers. We don't stand for much political correctness. Except in the liberal/socialist mecca of Austin.
HAHAHAHAHAHA! Greatest DU quote today.....
“They can tell it’s an Obama effigy because it attracted a crowd of 100,000 cheering supporters.”
So much for freedom of speech at U. of Kentucky.
It’s the week of Halloween. What about “free speech”?
The hypocrisy is astounding.
..yes, it's called selective rage, been going on for years. The MSM's bread and butter
It is just as wrong to display an 0bama effigy as it is to display a Palin effigy. No more, no less.
A pity that the hypocrites of the left can’t see it the same way.
Obama = hate crime
Palin = Halloween display
Go figure?
They should has taped a “this is Halloween art” sign on it’s chest.
That would make it alright, right?
Public vs Private property too...
Old Sarge...it jist ain’t so. In the last presidential election, Kerry/Edwards only took a dozen of Kentucky’s 120 counties. Jefferson County (Louisville) was one of those counties. The rest were in eastern Kentucky. Bush/Cheney wholloped Kerry/Edwards 59.55% to 39.69%.
Last Wednesday’s Rasmussen poll had McCain leading 52% to 44% and McConnell leading Lunsford 50% to 43%. I bet McCain and McConnell are doing even better this week.
You could perhaps suggest to you buddies at Fort Knox that they might want to move a few Abrams tanks over near the 4,603 tons of gold bullion on the post...in case a gang of Obama’s commie supporters decide the wealth needs to be spread around sooner rather than later.
