Sound Off for June 6, 2017
Fitting tribute
Nice article about Gregg Allman in Sunday's paper a true southern music legend, first concert I ever went to 1975, Macon Georgia. May he rest in peace.
Selective outrage
Right-wing drama queens upset over Kathy Griffin's depiction of a decapitated head tend to forget washed-up rocker, gun nut, & Trump lapdog Ted Nugent's repeated death threats against President Obama and Hillary Clinton.
Speaking of which
An anti-Muslim man in Oregon stabs people to death on a commuter train, but there is no public outcry in this country over home-grown white Christian terrorists.
Too little, too late
Kathy Griffin feels her apology makes everything rosy because she feels she's doing the right thing. The right thing would have been not to do what she apologized for.
Hate smoke?
Conducted my own smoking ban poll. Six smokers said leave us alone, another guy hates "nanny government" rules and one lady wants all diesel trucks and buses off Columbus streets first.
Good old days
Liberal activists at Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington, demanded that "all white people leave campus" for a "day of absence," disrupting and threatening a white professor who disagreed. Remember when liberals were against racism?
