Outrage over offensive Sarah Palin effigy

[mjgdogs]

Someone should have just stormed the house and cut the effugy down, then beat the living shit out of these two rump rangers, but then again they would throw tainted blood on christian children. They are the true intolerant nazis, and they should have been hunted down

You people are getting a taste of your own medicine..period...

Hah you 2 homo bums: finally decided to take the death threat display down after the Secret Service and your mayor paid you visits: nothing like a G-man wielding a badge and pistol to make you realize that you screwed up royally! Shouting 'Fire!' in a crowded theatre also in NOT free speech....No marriage for you!

VOTE YES ON PROP 8!

I am a conservative, but this demonstration is protected under the first amendment. Hate Crime legislation is completely un-American and violates first amendment rights. To other conservatives out there, think about this before you try to get the government involved. It is counter-productive to the conservative movement. Democrats are the ones that want things they disagree with to be silenced by government force, not liberty respecting Americans.

no crying about ropes and pick ups in texas ok

They forgot her pointed hat and her broomstick.

True we need free speach here, but we don't have free speach with double standards. If Palin can be hung so can Obama. This political correctness crap needs to stop.

[hankwatt]

outrageous...

this is a property rights issue!! they can make any statement they want on THEIR property.

btw, an Obama effigy already happened...Sept 23rd... in Oregon on George Fox University. gasp. It was removed because it was on public property. YESTERDAY one was found at U of K. It was removed as well for the same reason. It did not get national attention. why? turns out effigies are nothing new. why would anyone get bent out of shape for exercising free speech? come on think people!

[sierraurossie]

I SUPPORT ALL!

GOOD FOR YOU GUY!

AND GO OBAMA!!!

even though it has nothing to do with who is its still funny either way. and it is Amandment I Freedom of Speech. and people shouldnt do anything about it and good for you(:

[Auggie56]

Just another form of hate. And as I read your post I can say your one big hater.

[anthonymcjaggger]

if this is obama or his wife it creates a media firestorm.... nice to see the media is being fair and impartial

[RasinBran1]

I do not agree with their political views but that is just FUCKED up.

[Salvatrucho213]

Is America now becoming a nation of lawlesness? Yes, its offensive, but SO WHAT? Its protected under the 1st amendment. The govt. has no right to take it down. I think 8 years of Bush made Americans drunk on power.

Now, they have a hangover.

I think these young guys are badly in need of a wakeup call. I plan on doing that around 3:30 am this morning. Feel free to drop them a line if you like;

1253 N Orange Grove Ave

West Hollywood, CA 90046-5311

(323) 822-9383

The irony is that as a gay couple they are fighting against hatred and being treated like second class citizens but have done damage to their cause by acting just like the homophobic rednecks do.

Real smart, boys!

[Richograph]

Yeah I'm not for McCain or Palin....and I love West Hollywood but I think this was tasteless

[Cashmakessense]

I don't like it at all, but i'm not sure how it can be classified as a "hate crime"

[taragolden]

this display really does cross the line.i am not for palin and mccain in any way but i found this morally wrong.. whether its legally wrong, i cant say but i agree with the commentator who said it would not be allowed if it was obama. its it time to stop treating those who's views differ from ours with so much hate?

[Salvatrucho213]

line? What line? The 1st amendment? Review it please, don't go with what the crowd says
