Down there in Alabama, the Democratic Party, and some in the GOP, are calling for state Representative Will Dismukes to step down after he posted on social media that he had a “great time” honoring Confederate Army General and Ku Klux Klan leader Nathan Bedford Forrest over the weekend.
The very weekend John Lewis was being honored for his decades of service and his fight for Civil Rights following his death last week.
Dismukes posted on Facebook that he had a “great time” celebrating a Klan Leader’s birthday and said he was honored to give the invocation for the festivities:
“Always a great time and some sure good enough eating!!”
Dismukes is a chaplain for the Prattville Dragoons, a chapter of the Sons of the Confederacy whose Mission Statement reads:
“To you, Sons of Confederate Veterans, we will commit the vindication of the cause for which we fought. To your strength will be given the defense of the Confederate soldier’s good name, the guardianship of his history, the emulation of his virtues, the perpetuation of those principles which he loved and which you love also, and those ideals which made him glorious and which you also cherish.”
Dismukes took the post down by Monday and said that the photo and posting “was in no way glorifying the Klan or disrespecting” John Lewis” who was being celebrated in Alabama over the weekend.
Huh; two celebrations you can attend in Alabama as a representative of the people. One is the celebration of the birthday of a Klan leader and the other is a memorial to the life of a Civil Rights activist.
And Dismukes chose to celebrate a racist which makes him the ISBL Asshat of the Week.

Oh my, very well deserved
ReplyDelete@sshat of the week!
take care, xoxo :-)
I don't get why their even still around. And yes....this sorry ads hillbilly needs to step down...not a good role model or represent in the least. As Blanche Devereaux once said "Eat dirt and die trash."
ReplyDeletePUNCH THAT FUCKING RACIST NAZI!
ReplyDeleteI guess we should be glad he's posting this sh*t publically so we know he's an asshat?
ReplyDeleteThe racism is blatant.
ReplyDeleteBut it's Alabama, so.... yeah. I'm not surprised at all.
XOXO
Sheesh! Even the man's name sounds like something slimy that one discharges from one's throat! What a loogie!
ReplyDeleteThis ghastly fellow is chaplain of the Prattville dragoons? Doesn't sound as though he's taken on board Jesus' religious ideals. Plus Prattville? What dimwit thought that was a good name for a town? Pratt is a slang term for the female organs of reproduction (to put it politely).
ReplyDeleteSometimes I just can't read any more of this news. I just can't. Don't be offended if I'm not commenting more often.
ReplyDeleteIt was a war to break up the union. They lost. This should never have been tolerated in the first place. Oh, who am I telling?!? I just can't stand it and wonder where we'll all go from here.
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable that he'd even post that in the first place.
