Tennessee voters were outraged when they discovered a dummy wearing a GOP shirt, a dunce cap, and a sign with U.S. Senate candidate Rep. Marsha Blackburn’s (R-TN) name crossed out hanging from a tree.
Bedford County GOP chairwoman Sandy Still shared photos of the anti-Republican Halloween display on Facebook Thursday, which showed the figure with a plastic pumpkin-shaped bucket head, connected to a sign listing “Marsha” three times with a black “X” crossing it out and a sign below it that read “Stop the Hate.”
The display hung at an intersection in Shelbyville not too far from Liberty Elementary School, according to Still’s post.
Neighbors in the area were appalled at what they saw, especially since the figure was placed close to an elementary school.
“I didn’t want the children or the school to have to see that type of thing,” neighbor Bill Grimes, who lives a mile away from the dummy’s location, told WZTV.
Although the person who set up the display remains a mystery for now, Grimes and other residents called the display “intimidating” and “disturbing.”
“It was very disturbing to see a human-like object hanging from a tree,” Grimes said, “It’s an intimidating message they’re sending.” read more
Come on GOPers, don’t become sniveling pussies like the left. Revel in your persecution. It only works in our favor.
The democrats haven’t changed much in the past 150 years.
And mean while,

Not a dog whistle, more like a fog horn.
A “Stop The Hate” sign underneath the hanging in effigy?
Only morons wouldn’t notice the problem with that.
“Outraged”? “Intimidating”? “Disturbing”?
Heck, I’m DELIGHTED.
The Ds are displaying their inner psychopaths to the whole world.
@andoneinthechamber – ITYM “fag horn” – but I could be wrong! (-:
There can never be reconciliation or bipartisanship with these people. They must be destroyed.
Peace and Love
….long as you do what they want.
If you hadn’t told me what it was supposed to be I never would’ve realized that it’s ‘apparently’ a dummy or whatever.
It’s really poor workmanship, looks like a basketball on top of a punching bag with rags hanging from the sides.
Anybody feeling so overconfident that voting is optional?
I didn’t think so.
Thank you Dems! You’re shrill an awful display will make every parent and independant want to either stay at home if Dem, or want to make sure they get to the polls and vote against this attitude otherwise.
It’s not provocative if it’s not either making a positive statement or amusing. This was neither.
Democrats have been lynching people since 1865. Nothing new.
