"Hate" obviously has a new definition

Leave it to the Dems, the party of the KKK & slavery, to hang an effigy, lynch-style, from a tree.

(WZTV) — A political Halloween decoration has created outrage in Tennessee. The dummy, hanging from a tree on a street corner, had a GOP outfit on, a white dunce hat, and a Marsha Blackburn sign hanging from it. Under that, there’s a sign reading “Stop the Hate.”

Billy Grimes has lived in Shelbyville for eight years. He couldn’t believe his eyes when he spotted the dummy eerily swaying in the breeze as he drove across a bridge.

“It was very disturbing to see a human-like object hanging from a tree,” Grimes said, “It’s an intimidating message they’re sending.”

He says what disturbs him even more is how close this is to an elementary school.

“I didn’t want the children or the school to have to see that type of thing,” Grimes said.

Bedford County’s GOP chair Sandy Still agreed.
