A small-town Alabama pastor and mayor killed himself Friday, days after a local conservative news website published a story that included photos of him wearing women’s clothing and makeup.
F.L. “Bubba” Copeland, who was the mayor of Smiths Station and the pastor at First Baptist Church in Phenix City, shot himself in front of police during a welfare check, the Lee County Sheriff’s Office said.
Copeland’s private life was exposed Wednesday by the conservative blog 1819 News, which was once owned by the right-wing Alabama Policy Institute and whose top editor is a former Breitbart News contributor.
yeah we’re pretty intolerant of intolerance here on the left, but we know you “live in a society”
Luckily intolerance and republicanism are learned traits and can be changed.
This guy killed himself because his his inherent traits were outed. Traits that are usually ones we want acceptance and equality for.
And apparently, very tolerant of generalizations.
