WOODSTOCK, Ga. — A Cobb County family says they’re having a hard time sleeping after someone left a burning cross and bloody deer meat on their front lawn.

...

Sunday night around midnight, Louis and his brothers were at their home when they noticed something glowing outside. They were shocked by what they found outside.

“We just see a flaming cross right there on the ground and we’re just shocked, like, what?” Louis said.

Louis said he was primarily concerned about the safety of his brother’s four children and his pregnant girlfriend inside the home.

Very very familiar with Cobb County and Woodstock (several generations of my family from there).

Honestly, I find this difficult to believe. Especially there. Most events like this in the past have been shown to be put-ups by the residents themselves. I’d believe it more if it happened up where I now live in North Georgia....

Just really don’t believe it.

Stupid liberals. So symbolic and “shrouded in mystery” this display was. A burning cross; used by KKK who were all white men to invoke fear while doubling as a symbol for a hared of Christianity. The deer meat is a symbol for hunters that use guns to kill their prey. Obviously an anti-gun nut.

“.... Most events like this in the past have been shown to be put-ups by the residents themselves.....”
*******************************************************************
In my experience it’s likely closer to 99% -— approaching 100%. Yet another instance of some pathetic creature who sees themself as a member of a “victim class” and needs something to help persuade others that he/she is a victim.

Absolutely pathetic. If this creature is a victim of anything, he’s a victim of his and his family’s own lifestyle -— “...Louis said he was primarily concerned about the safety of his brother’s four children and his PREGNANT GIRLFRIEND inside the home...”

If one were to look at the linked video, that person would see the on-scene reporter is black. He is the reason this story has ‘legs’....nothing more.

An inside job, how could someone sneak in to their yard put a cross in the ground while they are inside and awake and set it on fire and no one notice the perps were out there.......

This doesn’t pass the smell test...

The best part of the video story is the caption under the people being interviewed:

Kenny Louis
>>> Victim

and

Kerry Louis
>>> Victim

Thought it was kinda nice for the folks to drop off a little venison for the downtrodden victims of society to enjoy. Lemonade out of lemons!

Nobody even copied the comment into their replies. Sometimes the mods miss those.

Sounds more like someone lighting a campfire with plans to roast up some venison.

I don’t buy the story either.
