Bubba Copeland shot himself in front of police on Friday, days after he begged 1819 News not to expose his private life.

    I mean, he was 62 years old you know, not like he could just turn his life around on a dime given the position he was in.

    The dude was not hurting anyone. He clearly wanted to help operate the city, you have zero chance of winning with the democratic party in the vast majority of deep south states. Being a part of a party does not mean you believe in every single view that someone in your party holds, why do you think half the GOP is trying to get rid of Trump?

    And would you stop with this leopard eating shit? I have read it here like 40,000 times. Suicide isn’t a joke, this is borderline not even a story about politics FFS. Save it for actually funny shit.

      Boy that leopard is getting fat. Must be from all the faces it is eating. He fed the leopard for fucking decades.

      You really think his church gives a shit? I bet during their weekly pretend time this morning they were celebrating.

        Did I say anything about a church?

        Are you an actual human being? I don’t give a shit about the church, I don’t give a shit about religion in general at all actually.

        The fact you mentioned that raises my suspicion that you are a bot or something

          I am mentioning the church. He was a leader for a denomination of Christianity infamous for the degree of its anti-LGBT stances. Decades feeding the hate machine. And I bet you anything that today they those people who said a thousand good morning to him are happy that he killed himself.

          The final unavoidable conclusion of Christianity is to kill its own.

            I know you are, I’m simply asking you what the fuck that has to do with what I said.

            What an uneducated comment. Baptists don’t inherently mean Anti-LGBTQ, it’s a common low-church denomination which mainly subscribes to the doctrine of grace by faith alone and is characterized by the belief in credo-baptism. It’s got nothing to do with LGBTQ politics.

                You said Baptist, not Southern Baptist. They are a different thing.

                  Jesus Christ you are something else. Fine citation needed that BAPTIST are pro-LGBT. There, can you do that now or is there some other dodge you would like to try first?

                    Some baptists are pro lgbt. Some aren’t. The LGBT question doesn’t define what being a baptist is.
