A Jackass with reddish hair ........


A Tennessee state senator is refusing to apologize for what many are calling a "tasteless" joke about pressure cookers in his blog in the wake of the Boston Marathon bombing.

Republican State Sen. Stacey Campfield posted a photo of a pressure cooker with "Assault Pressure Cooker (APC)" printed below it.

The photo had labels and arrows pointing to all of the pot's "dangerous" features including a "muzzle break thingy that goes 'up'" and a "tactical pistol grip."

Tasteless ... no other words come to mind right now, but, in my opinion, Campfield should be ridden out of town on a rail. I generally find humor in anything, and started to do some things on my "spoof" site, but I didn't find any humor in the event or anything related to the event, and have nothing but contempt for any who felt they did. There are just some events that occur in this country, such as Boston, that are totally devoid of any humor. The state of Tennessee should be ashamed that a member of their senate would publish such tasteless drivel ....... Shame on the state if they do  not do something about him ..........
