This is classy. \u00a0In Tennessee\u2019s Great Smoky Mountain National Park, 14 people died, 14,000 were evacuated, and 17,000 acres destroyed in a recent fire.<\/p>\n

But this gentlemen\u00a0decided it was a good time to criticize the victims for their politics<\/a>:<\/p>\n

An Alabama man who referred to residents of Gatlinburg as \u201cmouth-breathing, toothless, Trump-suckin\u2019 pond scum\u201d in the wake of last week\u2019s deadly wildfires has lost his job and been targeted by social media users as a possible suspect in the blaze.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

\u201cFunny 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,\u2019 mountain-dew chugging, moon-pie-munchin,\u2019 pall-mall smoking,\u2019, Trump-suckin\u2019 pond scum. (Chuckles and smiles like the smarmy liberal elitist I am,\u201d Bonner wrote.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The guy lost his job over this insensitive post,\u00a0and his social media accounts were promptly deleted.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
