The idiot who decided to hang Sarah Palin in effigy for Halloween is defending his decision and his right to be an idiot.
Chad Michael Morrisette and his partner, Mito Aviles, both 28, told the LA Times that they installed the Palin display at their house in the 1200 block of North Orange Grove Avenue in West Hollywood about three weeks ago.
They have no plans to take it down until after Halloween.
Chad Michael seems to be screaming out for attention, doesn't he? Well, he got it. The LA Times also reports that the Secret Service is looking into the hateful act.
In a complete double standard, the LA Sheriff says hanging Palin if ffigy is not a hate crime. But he says, if someone were to hang a replica of Barack Obama, that would be a hate crime because of the "historical implication."
I guess this country has no history of violence against women. The double standard of accepted sexism know no bounds in America.
I will say that I am impressed that Joy Behar and Keith Olbermann both expressed outrage.
Here's Behar:
Now Keith:
So now that the effigy has been universally panned and even the most ardent Palin hater have showed disgust, why don't the neighbors or some concrned citizens protest at that house until they take it down?
Hate can only be defeated when good people say no more.
It is one thing to voice outrage. It is quite another to do something about it. It is time for the people of West Hollywood to show that they are better than these two hate-filled critons.
If nothing is done, then the neighborhood is complicit and deserves to be equally condemned.

Seeing as how the denizens of this house seem to want as much attention as they can garner, perhaps it would be interesting to send them a postcard letting them know exactly what the rest of America thinks about their little stunt.
That would be the residents of 1253 N Orange Grove Ave, West Hollywood, CA 90046 (thanks, Google).
Just FYI.
These two should be ashamed of themselves. Gay people are often the target of hate crimes such as this, and it IS a hate crime.
Fortunatley, we live in a country where you are free to express yor view. Unfortunatley, these two went about it the wrong way. Shame, Shame, Shame!
Why a doll?
Why not just hang the entire family?
Then we could feed the whole lot of them to deserving and starving wolves.
2012 - like THAT will ever happen.
You all can toss that useless cunt back into her cage. Keep her; America has no need for her.
In fact, bring ME Sarah''s severed leg, and I'll pay you $2,000.
