Trump supporter's float in Indiana parade depicts Hillary Clinton in an electric chair
By Emily Cahn October 04, 2016

Violent rhetoric against presidential candidates has become a disturbing trend in the 2016 campaign.

But one man in an Indiana town took that rhetoric a step further over the weekend, creating a parade float that depicted Hillary Clinton in an electric chair, with Donald Trump sitting beside her ready to flip the switch, a local Fox affiliate in the Hoosier State reported.

Also included on the float was a grim reaper and an "Easter Island style head statue with a handwritten sign saying 'Obama' attached to it," the Fox affiliate reported.

1. Disgusting and yet unsurprising given Trump's rhetoric and tone...

When he loses, if he attempts to rile up his supporters in ANY way, he should be immediately arrested and tried for sedition.
We'll see how funny these "jokes' are when they have real consequences...

If anything violent in the political world happens between now and the election (or in its immediate aftermath) I believe Donald J. Trump should be held criminally and civilly liable. There must be consequences to this kind of behavior and it must start at the top.

4. I think Trump/hate radio and fox news will try

to stir up violence against the government when Hillary is elected President.

2. And Trump wonders why Hillary calls some of his supporters "Deplorables"

5. Deplorables

is putting it mildly IMO.

3. Was it allowed in the parade, though?

6. Looking at the pic and reading the story

It definitely looks like it was in the parade to me.

8. You're right, WCZ. Aurora, IN is about to institute new procedures,

and, who knows, maybe get a new elected official or two. This didn't go over well.

7. Aurora IN is now Crackertown USA. Enjoy the new marketing slogan!

Because the parade organizers let the float be in the parade you all get to be called hate-filled idiots.
