Police are searching for a man who got out of his vehicle and pointed a gun at another driver, according to Rome police reports. According to the report: The complainant stated that as he pulled onto North Avenue from Dogwood Street on Tuesday afternoon he was nearly hit by a subject in a red pickup truck that allegedly ran the red light. After pulling up beside him at the traffic light at North Avenue and North Broad Street, the complainant looked at the driver of the truck and threw his hands up. That’s when the driver — described as a 5-foot-8 black male in a black T-shirt — exited the truck, pulled out a pistol, and pointed it at the complainant’s head. The subject asked the complainant “what do you think about that?”, put the weapon away and got back into his vehicle. No arrests have been made in the incident.

While I'd do not agree with Serpentfoots methods I do recognize her rights. Many of you are quick to paint her as crazy. Eccentric? Yes! Crazy? No! Serpent foot is a very intelligent person who disagrees with governmental intrusion into our lives. She was Tea Party before the Tea Party. This is another example of governmental intrusion forcing us to follow the rule of man. You say her beliefs are crazy? No crazier than many of you believing being in TIMITS (The invisible man in the sky) I applaud your fight Serpentfoot! I condemn Jackie Newby for placing herself and Floyd Medical Center in front of someone's personal rights!
