protesters demand Franson's resignation

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Protesters are demanding Representative Mary Franson resign from office. Ever since a video was posted of Mary when she "compared food stamps to feeding wild animals and making them "dependent." People were outraged and furious at her comment. Mary thought it was "funny" but to others it was an offensive comment and many demand her apology and resignation letter but since this video outbreak she has said it is very beneficial to her campaign. She claims she has received many donations and support from people. The thing that stood out the most to me in this article is how harsh the protesters can be to her comment they fired back saying "If people are animals, then Mary Franson is a rat."
