Flipping around the dial and came across the political channel espn just in time to catch a news update.

Legendary MLB commissioner I think (I don’t follow baseball).

Apparently he said some racist things about 100 years ago or something.

His name is on trophies and other things. He is next up to be erased.

If they want to spit on that son of a bitch's grave, put Shoeless Joe Jackson in Cooperstown.

Is it still illegal not to have a firearm in your house in Kennesaw?

I’m not aware of that one.

There is a Confederate themed store right smack in downtown Kennesaw. Been there forever, I think. It’s boarded up now for protection. Owner says he’s not going anywhere.

As Kennesaw has grown in popularity it’s profile has increased. There have been marches downtown to demand the store’s removal.

It was there in the 80's at least. It had a klan hood and robe on the upper torso of a dummy on display in front of a window.

Dent Myers aka the Wildman.

Autist civil war historian, total kook.

He’s the Keith Richards of the k lan.

The contortions you guys go through to make it seem like you don't watch the channels you obviously watch is hilarious.

It said some former MVPs want his name off the trophy. Mentioned Larkin, Pendelton and Schmidt. Maybe they could just give it back since they find it so offensive.

Only thing they've been able to get removed is the Confederate flag from the small park across the street from Dent Myers'.

Landis banned Shoeless Joe Jackson and the other "Black Sox" because of the 1919 WS.

Time to pay the SjW piper.

In fairness, it's also against the law to carry an ice cream cone in your back pocket on Sundays, too.
