REX, Ga. — Police are trying to figure out who knocked over a monument dedicated to an ancestor of first lady Michelle Obama.

“When I saw it, I shed a few tears,” Vicki Smith told Channel 2’s Linda Stouffer.

Smith helped get the monument to Rex. It’s a tribute to Melvinia Shields, the great-great-great grandmother of Obama. Shields was born into slavery in 1844 and later moved to Georgia.

Clayton County Commissioner Sonna Singleton said the monument company will have to lift the heavy stone to check for cracks after someone pushed it off the foundation block.

“It was our little source of pride because here we are in little old Rex, Georgia, and we had ties to the White House, so there's pride in us for that,” Singleton said.

A sign of growing hatred against Obama?

[Norm Lenhart]

Muzzies or libs. False flag BS.

[Biggirl]

No, not a false flag at all.

Just your opinion.

[whatshotandwhatsnot]

False flag. Done to incite, inflame, deflect.

[Gen.Blather]

This is the third posting this morning on “hate” crimes against liberalism. I’ll lay odds that they’re all self-perpetrated. This is a Saul Alinsky trick.

[Biggirl]

Sure about that?

[Biggirl]

Growing dislike against Obama.

[Norm Lenhart]

Yup. Based on lots of similar past examples to go by.

Concerning a 170 year old shirt-tail relationship, “It was our little source of pride because here we are in little old Rex, Georgia, and we had ties to the White House, so there's pride in us for that,”

Free people simply don't think like this.

[Biggirl]

Need info to back it up, otherwise your opinion.

[Norm Lenhart]

I just SADF “Yup” in response to your assertion. What more would you like? Evidence that I have an opinion?

[Norm Lenhart]

Edit...SAID

“It was our little source of pride because here we are in little old Rex, Georgia, and we had ties to the White House, so there's pride in us for that,” Singleton said.

That's just pathetic. Gotta have a screw loose to want any ties to the White Hut.

Their stone idol fell upon its face to the earth. Kind of like Dagon.

[Fresh Wind]

Surely the work of racist tea baggers. /s

[SunkenCiv]

Probably was Fauxahontas’ ancestor as well.

Thanks rightwingintelligentsia.

[Biggirl]

I will go with my opinion, you go with yours.

[Norm Lenhart]

Cool. the difference is that my opinion has a huge number of fake atrocities by libs and muzzies (paging Bahgdad bob and Green Helmet guy!) to reinforce it. And Al and Tawana types. But you think whatever you like.
