Is Harassment of Public Figures Acceptable: Your Sincere Opinion

[Fireball]

Kiah Morris, the only African-American woman in Vermont’s House of Representatives, has resigned, citing years of racially motivated harassment and threats.

“There was vandalism within our home,” she said. “We found there were swastikas painted on the trees in the woods near where we live. We had home invasions.”

“It has come and gone and in different waves, but then it picked back up again and of course we are back in an election season so there’s always more,” she said.

Of course, these are crimes, and as a result are completely uncalled for; the perps should be given a fair trial and a fine hangin'. Refusing to serve someone in a restaurant I can understand.
