Leftwing Athens, Georgia County Commissioner Melissa Link Disgusted People Noticed Deadly Crime

Athens, GA County Commissioner Melissa Link disgraces herself in unhinged rant about the public reaction to Laken Riley’s murder *in her community* -- She says she is “as disgusted by the crime as I am the hysterical glee with which so many have seized upon this tragedy to promote division, bigotry, and hate,” then invokes the specter of “white men with weapons of war fueled by mental illness, bigotry and right wing conspiracy theories.” She’s railing against her preferred ideological bogeymen and not even attempting to grapple with the facts of this case. It’s obvious why she wouldn’t want to address those facts…

…and because Commissioner Link hadn’t yet brought up abortion distortions, or baselessly smeared SCOTUS justices, or invoked former President Trump, she ranted on further — mocking those “so overcome” by Riley’s murder, demanding they “protect the living” through her preferred polices, including gun control (the murder in question did not involve a gun at all). What a revolting performance.
