A video of several people hanging Kentucky’s Governor in effigy right outside his home was posted on Twitter.
Sarah Ladd, a reporter at the Courier Journal, posted a Twitter thread of a Kentucky rally that took place in front of Governor Andy Beshear’s mansion.

The protestors were taking part in a Patriot Day Rally to exercise Second Amendment rights according to Microsoft News.

They were shouting at Governor Beshear to come outside, and at the end of the rally, someone hung him in effigy with a sign around his neck that read, “sic semper tyrannis,” a Latin phrase meaning “thus always to tyrants.”

Ladd posted a video of the hanging, in which a little girl is watching from the sidelines.

Claire McCaskill, former Senator (D- MO) and current NBC News and MSNBC News analyst, reposted the video, commenting, “Hate is taught.”

1. If you're trying to teach a child hatefulness, this is a good way.

2. To the reich-wing asshat on the bottom right hand corner:

You're basically saying that American troops, on orders from the "gov'mint", would or would have massacred us if not for the 2nd amendment. Way to pay tribute to those who died for our country, you phony fucking patriot.
