This is fairly local to me:

http://www.cleveland19.com/story/38921458/a-confederate-flag-in-lorain-county-was-hung-from-a-billboard-

TLDR version;

Bunch of the usual social justice warriors whine about the Confederate flag being sold at the county fair*
Fair board tells them to get bent.  Repeatedly.
Persons from the other side of the debate troll the new SJW billboard.
OUTRAGE!

Just funny.


*Also ironic,  as this county literally shares a border with Canada.  Not a whole lot of Southern Heritage here.

There is no fixing stupid. But, you can line it up in front of a wall and offer it a last smoke.

There is no such thing as a "transgender" person.  Only mental illness that should be discouraged.

I needed a good shot of humor.  Thanks for sharing, Andiron.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Happy to oblige.

The whole kerfuffle looks to have happened Monday,  and I just now heard about it from a friend sharing the same link.  With the weeks of OUTRAGE!! leading up,  this was too good not to share.  Did you see the quote in the little baggy thing?  Brilliant, IMO.

I don't think there's an active Nazi party chapter in my state, but that doesn't stop the Nazi flags and memorabilia vendors from taking tables at the gun shows.

I'm surprised nobody decided to fly a Union Jack just to bait the SJWS' ire and foaming at the mouth and wringing of the hands and clutching of the pearls.

LOL . . . just, LOL.    :rofl:
