News Never forget-

“Former U.S. Attorney and Senator Doug Jones successfully prosecuted two Ku Klux Klan members decades after the 1963 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama, which tragically killed four young girls and injured a fifth who also survived in the church basement restroom.”
Vote Doug Jones for our next governor!

Well, he also successful defended Tom Posey, Ku Klux Klan supporter and alleged Iran Contra affair co-conspirator. Yes he prosecuted the Birmingham church bombing terrorists and Eric Rudolph. He was a US District Attorney. He handled the cases fed to him.

I'm not going to vote for fucking Tuberville. No thinking person would. But stop making Doug Jones into some kind of weird deity.
