The Jackson Free Press managed to score a scoop when it reported that Roy Nicholson made a little prayer promoting violence at a Rankin County function for blogger Charles Johnson. Yup, this is the same Roy Nicholson who wanted to create an un-American activities committee in the legislature. The JFP reported:
At the beginning of the meeting, just after asking God in the opening prayer to "be violent against" the GOP establishment, Mississippi Tea Party Chairman Roy Nicholson thanked Johnson for getting "down in that dirty, muddy trench and exposing a lot of truth" in Mississippi politics.* ArticleOoooook. Don't think I really need to make a comment on this one.
*I don't think Mr. Nicholson is the Chairman.

Black Racist remark against GOP....
Johnson still has his baby curls.
No doubt ISIS, Al Qaeda and Hamas offer up similar prayers only beseeching Allah instead of God.
If Nicholson " inspires" one of his psychotic supporters to act as an instrument of God, will he innocently pretend surprise or declare the murderer to be a hero and martyr to " the cause"?
There was a time in the not too distant past when they'd have been taken to Whitfield for evaluation and never have gotten out again!
Paranoid schizophrenia would be the diagnosis!
Johnny Weir, where in the hell did you get that?
Do you need meds too?
Nice crew of supporters ya got there, Chris McDaniels. And just where is the craven Mr. McDaniels when all of this repugnant lunacy is being paraded on his behalf? Crickets.
If this lunatic Roy Nicholson is representative of the Mississippi Tea Party which he founded, and if his Tea Party organization is representative of those whose interests & agenda Chris McDaniels is seeking to serve in Washington, God really must dearly love Mississippi if he played a role in ensuring that McDaniels lost this race and his wacked-out supporters lost a powerful advocate in Congress.
Mississippi barely averted a truly frightening scenario having a Senator in the pocket of frothing-at-the-mouth freaks like Nicholson who preach their warped gospel of hate and seek to give all Christians a bad name, that's all I have to say.
@9:09 Roy Nicholson, the man who is inciting his flock to commit violence against GOP politicians is not black, he is the very white preacher who founded the very white MS Tea Party which evidently objects to being obligated to use the same primary voting booths as black folks.
People are missing the bigger point here.
The JFP actually discovered and reported something valuable.
10:56 - Gets the comment of the decade award.
not sure why this is even remarkable - people have been saying stuff like this about abortion doctors for years - when someone actually listens and kills an abortion doctor, we hear "of course i didn't actually mean for anyone to do that!"
Wish the press was capable of asking follow up questions. "Be Violent" is pretty non-specific. It could range from simple assault to mass murder.
And who exactly in the GOP do they want to "be violent" to? Would it be some specific local GOP leader such as X or Y? Or would they just randomly attack some old lady in a nursing home who happened to vote Republican?
Apparently they like sneaking around nursing homes.
Don't forget, this guy was close to being Brandon's Alderman at Large.
I have said it on here before, someone is going to go to the state archives and go into the Sovereignty Commission Files, and make all of us look like fools if we do not kill the mess the Tea Party is stirring up. It will be the 60's all over again. Sad.
Just read the court challenge filing.
"23. The First Amendment protects the freedom to join together in furtherance of common political beliefs, which necessarily presupposes the freedom to identify the people who constitute the association, and to limit the association to those people. The right to associate includes the right not to associate."
The right not to associate sounds an awful lot like a throw back to legal segregation to me.
Yeah, 4:35 pm, that caught my attention as well.
That's all well and good for a group that's not open to the public. Last time I checked, political parties are not private organizations and do want to have non-members vote for their party.
If that weren't the case, then 40% of voting eligible Americans would be banned from voting in primaries and no member of either party could vote against their party candidate!
Either these lawyers or completely incompetent or else they believe that the judiciary has been sufficiently politicized so that the law is no longer relevant.
8/14@538. "law is no longer relevant" ?? This is a little off subject but metaphorically speaking..... walk downtown Jackson after dark or as a matter of fact just about anywhere anytime or even in gated communities during the day. The law is not relevant to many......that's the reason we need so many damn attorneys - to keep folks like this out of jail..... and who appears to be the criminal? Minds tend to think alike. metaphorically speaking... (of course you have to have a logical analytical mind to figure this one out)
