- neveroddoreven, on 10/28/2008, -0/+5and if there were an obama effigy ... lets guess what would happen. National outcry covered on all MSM outlets, federal investigation and time in jail. Slippery slope people. You start doing ***** then the other party will start doing ***** and the nation is worse off.
- Ruler4you, on 10/29/2008, -0/+4"I'm not defending this; I'm not criticizing it.
Nice they aren't afraid to take a stand. This is the same stand they took with the OJ case, isn't it? - 10QGZus, on 10/29/2008, -0/+3What a double standard. If it were Obama hanging there, the owner of the house would be jailed immediately for a hate crime. Every alphabet network would be there, broadcasting this as a hate crime.
So I guess it's OK now to lynch white conservative women........... - downs1, on 10/29/2008, -0/+3A lot of hate crimes get a pass because it's Halloween. In this case, the double standard is so blatant that it's sickening. Mr. Morrisette is a fool. He ought to hang Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters in effigy also. Bet the cops would be "urged" to take action then.
- Qerq, on 10/29/2008, -0/+3I believe if Obama is elected you will see more double standards like this. But I also believe if he wins in four years time everyone, including minorities will want him out.
- CaptCarrot, on 10/28/2008, -0/+3I have an idea for a Halloween lawn display... Maybe I'll make the news.
- TYRONEBR549, on 10/29/2008, -0/+2What's good for the goose...
- chiefquanah, on 10/29/2008, -0/+2Hey, this can't possibly be a hate crime... Palin is not a minority and hate crimes only apply to minorities. You can't have a hate crime against a white person, that just doesn't compute!!!
Hate to say it but at least LA Times picked this one up, I'm surprised any news outlet of any kind has said anything about this. - inactive, on 10/29/2008, -0/+1Everybody put their obama doll out with a noose around his neck, outside their house for some fun halloween art.
- RichardHead1, on 10/29/2008, -0/+1Morrisette and noisy leftist sympathizers like him all share one common dysfunction: a blissful ignorance of leftist history. The unhappy history lesson is this: after a hard-left "Dear Leader" takes over, his most ardent and vocal sympathizers are among his early casualties.
Past Dear Leaders like Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Hussein, and others actually distrusted their noisiest sympathizers as potentially embarrassing loose cannons. Even so, each Dear Leader did find some political use for such sympathizers, as follows:
1) Arresting them and charging them with various and imaginary "crimes against the state"
2) Show-trying them for said "crimes against the state"
3) "Finding" them guilty
4) Sentencing them to "appropriate" and "just" punishments
5) Blindfolding them and marching them before firing squads
6) Blowing their brains out
7) Harvesting their organs (optional)
8) Bulldozing their remains into mass graves
9) Instilling a perpetual state of terror into all surviving subjects
10) Permanently galvanizing Dear Leader's grip on power
"Ridiculous. This is America! That can never happen here...", right? Well, that brings to mind a few more forgotten history lessons we can save for another day... - DV8tion2u, on 10/29/2008, -0/+1It really horrifying to see that it's OK to have a hanging white woman. Sounds like sharia law in the USA doesn't it. Everyone scoffs at the idea, but we aren't as far as we think are we.
The next door neighbor should be able to hang an Obama if they so choose.
I for one am sick of the racism accusations or even any mention of it. Ancient history and a convenient excuse or leg up if you are a minority. Obama is the FAVORITE int he race for PRESIDENT of the USA. nothing screams "shut up on the racism excuse" like having that be true. - Psalms83, on 10/29/2008, -0/+1you are absolutly right .... and law enforcement would not call it a holloween prank the pertitrator would goe directly to jail .... this is simply politicaly motavated and is wrong whether black or white
