WHY THE SOUTH NEVER DISAPPOINTS

I feel for transplanted Northerners who have moved below the Mason Dixon line for jobs, weather, retirement or health. They are subjected to the abject stupidity and hatred of a bygone era.
Senator Richard Burr quipped as he entered a gun shop that “nothing made me feel better” than seeing a magazine about rifles “with a picture of Hillary Clinton on the cover”.
He later added that “I was a bit shocked at that-it didn’t have a Bull’s Eye on it”. He later said the magazine was endorsing candidates who were pro gun.
But a few things here.
1. Rifles and their assailants KILLED John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Junior.
2. This man is a United States Senator. He has made a definite threat on the life of a Presidential candidate. At the very least he has put the thought in someone’s head.
3. This is the national Republican party folks. This is the same guy who has voted against every gun background check. I guess he likes to see five year old slaughtered before Christmas again.
You disagree with them, call 'em  criminal. You don’t like them, suggest killing them.
Since last Friday there have been multiple calls for still another investigation into Hillary Clinton. Nothing on those e mails can match the threat this elected official made to a political opponent.
So if you want the FBI to investigate something, this is easy. This stupid mean man set it out loud.
Lock him up!

ABSENTEE BALLOTS ON THE WAY!

If you are concerned about absentee ballots, they are on the way. They are comprehensive and heavy. But the voting bureau has done a great job getting them out and together.
