Tell Bigoted Irmo, South Carolina Mayor to Resign
Hardy King, the Mayor of Irmo, South Carolina is unapologetically posting bigoted memes and links on his Facebook account.
In a story posted in the Daily Beast, King seems proud of his history of anti-Muslim, anti-immigrant, pro-Confederacy and racist Facebook posts. He told Columbia TV station WLTX, “If it causes some terrorist grief I do not apologize, nor do I believe they give a rip. If it caused some liberal troll to go bonkers, so what.”
One of his anti-immigrant posts includes “Facts!” such as:
• “95% of Warrants issued for Murder in Los Angeles are for Illegals”
• “More than 66% of ALL births in California are to Illegals on Medi-Cal.”
Of course, none of these “facts” are true.
A mayor has to represent all of the people in her or his community. Hardy King has proven that he does not care about the minority groups in Irmo. It is clear that he cannot do the job of mayor.
