When a racist like Robert Copeland ends up as a respectable community's police commissioner, you kinda wonder how in the world he got there in the first place.
For example, did the now-resigned-even-though-he-swore-he-never-would commissioner always shout the N-word in restaurants? Or did he keep his hatred under wraps until that one unguarded moment in March? Unless he's recruited soon as a guest blogger for Stormfront, we'll probably never know.
Interestingly, Georgia's state government also just got jolted by a vocal hater who they wanted to hire as public health director. Turns out that one Eric Walsh, who until just now served in the same position in Pasadena, California, is a Muslim-hating, homophobic Seventh-Day Adventist preacher. Unfortunately for our friends down in the Peach State, Walsh's decidedly un-Christian sermons surfaced after they offered him the job.
Whoops! Georgia Department of Public Health spokesguy "Ryan Deal" (give you three guesses who he's related to) said Walsh's rants have "caused some concern." Gee, Ryan, ya think?
We cats haven't been very impressed with DPH's vetting abilities in the past, and it seems as if they haven't improved much — or at least still haven't learned what YouTube is. We look forward to hearing if they tell Walsh to take a hike — or if a Donald-Sterling-Robert-Copeland clone is just their kind of guy. Knowing who's in charge of state government down there, we cats wouldn't be surprised if it's the latter.
