This is classy.  In Tennessee’s Great Smoky Mountain National Park, 14 people died, 14,000 were evacuated, and 17,000 acres destroyed in a recent fire.

But this gentlemen decided it was a good time to criticize the victims for their politics:

An Alabama man who referred to residents of Gatlinburg as “mouth-breathing, toothless, Trump-suckin’ pond scum” in the wake of last week’s deadly wildfires has lost his job and been targeted by social media users as a possible suspect in the blaze.

On Nov. 29, Coleman Bonner of Wessington in Chilton County posted a message to his personal Facebook page in regards to the wildfires in Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Sevier County, Tennessee.

“Funny story. I was recently in Gatlinburg. Had a terrible time. I felt the place was a cesspool of consumerism and a bastion of the worst aspect of southern culture. Turns out a wildfire just burned most of the town to the ground. Good riddance, Gatlinburg. And good luck you mouth-breathing, toothless, diabetic, cousin-humpin,’ mountain-dew chugging, moon-pie-munchin,’ pall-mall smoking,’, Trump-suckin’ pond scum. (Chuckles and smiles like the smarmy liberal elitist I am,” Bonner wrote.

The guy lost his job over this insensitive post, and his social media accounts were promptly deleted.
