Palin Effigy Removed

October 31st, 2008 | by Sqotty |

Effigy of Palin comes down, and it is about time.

From CBS2:

The mannequin hanging by a noose was part of a larger Halloween display that included an effigy of John McCain coming out of the chimney surrounded by fake flames. The display has drawn national attention and a visit from the Secret Service, which decided there was no threat.

Earlier in the afternoon, neighbors covered up the Palin mannequin with sheets, in what was described as a friendly protest.

Later a handful of protesters were joined by an SUV with an effigy labeled “Chad,” after the display’s creator, Chad Morrisette.

I like the friendly protest over the effigy the neighbors put on. Bottom line, this should never have happened. The same is true with the several other hanging/bloody effigies of candidates that has been reported around the country.
