[ASHLANDSOURCE] Ashland County Fair officials booted the Ashland County Democratic Party booth on Thursday following the political party's sale of ''offensive buttons'' directed toward President Donald Trump ...So far he's been unkillable, and they've tried..... The Ashland County Fair posted on Facebook around 8 p.m. on Thursday that it had been ''made aware of offensive buttons in the Democrat booth.'' ''We are a family friendly fair and do not condone this from any vendor/merchant. We apologize for those who saw the display. The democrat (sic) party has been asked to pack their booth up for this year so they not be here (for the remainder) of our fair week. This is not political, we just can't have this at our county fair,'' reads the post. As of 11:45 p.m. the post had been shared 478 times with 967 comments on the Ashland County Fair's Facebook page. Heather Sample, chair of the Ashland County Democratic Party, declined to comment Thursday evening because she is waiting to speak with a lawyer. The Ashland Fair Board did not respond to a request for comment on Thursday night. A Facebook user took a photo of the buttons. They depict a red hat with words such as ''Fascist'' and ''Resist.'' Smaller text reads ''Is he dead yet?'' and ''One day, we will wake up to his obituary.'' Some of them also contained ''8647,'' a political code interpreted by some as a call to violence against President Trump. Ashland County Sheriff Kurt Schneider said he would contact the U.S. Secret Service on Friday to follow up, according to Fox 8 in Cleveland, kept in touch with the world by Obamaphone, ...was ruled by a Democrat machine from 1942 through 1971. After the river caught fire during the administration of Carl Stokes they tried a Republican, then went back to being Democrats when the party hacked up Dennis Kucinich ... . ''Violence shouldn't be tolerated in any way, in any venue in any jurisdiction in the United States and it certainly won't be tolerated here in Ashland County,'' he told Fox 8. |
