A mannequin resembling Sarah Palin hanges from a noose in front of his home. The mannequin comes complete with glasses, a beehive wig and a red business suit. People are passing by to take pictures of the effigy, and tour buses have included the display on their daily routes.
The home of Chad Michael Morrisette also offers an effigy of Republican presidential candidate, Sen. John McCain, popping out of a chimney surrounded by fake flames.
Neighbors say whether it's Halloween or not, the display has got to be removed.
Some concerned callers have reported the display as a hate crime so a special hate crime unit is investigating, according to a local sheriff's office.
According to Morrisette, "I know if we had done it with Barack Obama, people would've probably thrown things through our windows. The image of a hanged black man is a lot more intense than the image of a hanged white woman -- for our country -- in the history of our country." Then again, this display by Morrisette could be viewed as violence against women.
Nonetheless, it will be interesting to see if our friends on the 'Left' will be outraged by this. Our guess is probably not.
Can you imagine, though, if it were Jill Biden or Nancy Pelosi hanging from the house???
