It's really frightening ... a 2nd Amendment Kentucky rally the day before Memorial Day turned into an insane display of Governor Andy Beshear being hung in effigy.

It's really frightening ... a 2nd Amendment Kentucky rally the day before Memorial Day turned into an insane display of GovernorIt makes no sense, other than some gun-toting fanatics wanting to whip the crowd into a frenzy. Around 100 people swarmed the Governor's mansion to celebrate constitutional rights, as they packed heat.Cliff Christman

then launched on the Governor's coronavirus restrictions, grousing,"This has been one of the biggest shams in world history ... Grown men have been hiding in homes nearly wetting their pants over this invisible enemy that nobody sees. Where is it at? Let it come out and face us." Now back to the hanging ... how far are we from a Civil War when disagreements turn into symbolic lynchings? And, how far a distance is there between hanging in effigy and hanging for real? If the mindset is there, actions may not be far behind.

You take away people rights and freedom and you don't know why they are so angry?

Kentucky

This is what happens when uneducated people get to stay on the mainland with us. Ship ‘em to idiot island.

Listening to Trump’s theme song, which is forever bastardized, hanging the KY Governor in effigy, who is trying to minimize deaths during a pandemic. Repulsive!

Isn’t that a Federal Crime now.

How many times r u going to tweet this.

Well......hung 🤭🤭

This is what happens to people when their parents are first cousins

That’s seriously f*ed up. What century do they live in?

Ha, ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's just STUPID.

Sad ass people

It's'Kentucky' !!

Harvey, have you already forgotten Kathy Griffin's stunt when Trump was elected? She held his severed bloody head. You don't have to go back to George Wallace...wtf?

These are Trump supporters who are still stuck in the 1960’s.

Tasteless and disgusting behavior. I’m more and more disappointed by humans every day.

Savages

Stupid

Who is this guy? He sure is setting a fine example for that little one in the video. He must be proud.

This is a threat..wheres the arrests?

It looks like a really bad, dumb joke.

Where's the lefts outrage

OOOOOOOMMMMMYYYYYYGAAAAAWWWWDDDD

I would say it took awhile before they landed on this idea. But we all know thats not white.

White folk outta pocket

Showing their true colors smh. How can You possibly be mad? You don't give a fuck about no one, not even yourself

Them bubbas needs to go to jail!

Well hung there, hey 😂😂😂

How long till trump says they are very good people?

If i was the Gov. I’d sue them. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Teaching hate

Good grief! What is wrong with people!

If those people don't like it here they are free to leave. As a matter of fact they can go back to where they came from🙂

I'm sure they don't want quarantine and the presidential elections will be held immediately.

They're beasts

It had 'Sic Semper Tyrannis'... 😂

Lynching the effigy of the Kentucky governor 😂 The coronavirus fucked up more a mentally unstable and divided society.

Now set it on fire!

Any excuse to hang someone

And it wasn’t Even a good one.

This is America at the core...

😡

Evil people man CoronavirusUSA Kentucky

Long love the south!! What the fucks people!?!? How many generations have gone but hanging still runs in your blood!!!

What’s the obsession with the KKK? The KKK never robbed me, never killed my cousins, never destroyed my neighborhood, why the obsession? I think they’re irrelevant haters.

Yikes ya’ll 😟😕

They are putting Kentucky on the map and showing the world what they do there.

I live in Kentucky, Harlan Kentucky as a matter of fact. A tourist and coal mining town. I know the cities may have more cases but here where I live only one case of COVID-19. We have also not seen much of a decline in tourist either.

😡😬

This is getting ridiculous!! Everyone needs to stop being so awful over & haircut & a massge geeze!

Just domestic terrorists honoring MemorialDay2020 in Kentucky.

Vile

Well it's Kentucky where most of them are their own Grandpa. Let's be proud that he can even tie a knot.

it looks like most of the Stupid is on the tRump side. The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits. - Albert Einstein

White people again

Where's the outrage from the President. Waiting.

Unbelievable what this presidency has brought out to surface: a lot of human garbage

Ahh..the good ole spirt of hanging

I wonder what future generations will make of this period in our history. I hope when/if this happens again society responds in a manner more respectful than the current minority of buttheads One bad apple..... Where is the leadership? Golfing.

It’s fine as long as he is white...if he was black...people would be going to jail and charged with hate crimes.

Hzhzhzhzhzhzhzhzhzhhzzhjzjsjsjsjjsjsjjsjjsjjjjsjsjjsjjjsj And hes a governor! THE SYSTEM IS BROKE

This reminds me of Napoleon Dynamite

An ex of mine was from Kentucky and this explains a lot

He is a white guy so who cares.

Kentuckians doing Kentucky things. 🙄

Im sure it was done respectfully by find people on both sides of realDonaldTrump

WTH

More body bag candidates...

This should offend only the weak. I'll allow it.

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE!!

Who are these people? This is not representative of true Americans.

The hillbilly’s have spoken. Please remove all disability and all social services from the state of Kentucky immediately just like trump wants. Let’s see how long they stay red when they have no healthcare or food to eat. Morons civilwar

Representation of lynching for any means of protest is despicable

People really still do this?

I hate to paint with a broad brush but why is shit like this extremely common in the South? Why don't so many people have any self-awareness?

But if it was a black guy hanging it would be a hate crime?

Bullshit like this is why America is not great

'Draconian'? 'House arrest'? Coronavirus lockdowns prompt raft of lawsuits against statesGovernors say strict rules save lives, but critics who are forced to stay home or shutter their businesses called the steps “draconian” or compared them to “house arrest.” Yet, i bet their numbers are better than people who didn't shelter in place. There is a difference between people who sheltered in place and people who were ordered to and did not do it. The tale is in the outbreak. Pat yourself on the back for having that self discipline. WOULD YOU RATHER BE DEAD. Portraying people in church is a joke. The truly Christ like are out in the field feeding the hungry, ministering to the needy, comforting their neighbors, not whining like toddlers because they can’t sit in pews! I guess phonies like Franklin Graham are losing money.
