After reading your posts, it is not easy to tell what is serious and what isn't.

It isn't a 'General Lee.'
It's sort of sad that an original piece like that is destroyed by an idiot.

Didn't mean he would be bitten or encounter backlash from corporate sponsors. Some fans will cheer him and some will jeer. The cheers wont bother him. Sounds like he could use more fans.
Naw, the spin room is heavily tilted to the libertarian and far right end of the spectrum.
Isn't it great that there are at least 2 places that don't feature a Far left spin like every other media outlet !

It is his property. He can do with it as he wishes. I would just sell it instead of destroying it. Someone would still buy it.

How exactly did this become news anyway? Did someone ask him if he planned to keep it, or did he open his mouth in front of a microphone?
