This woman is c-r-a-z-y

I hadn't heard about June Griffin before her unhinged quotes surrounding Rhea County Tennessee's voters booting commissioners who had attempted to ban homosexuality. At the time it was passed by those boneheads, Griffin bleated that she turned on her gaydar to spot the homos and "anyone I ever suspect, I go up and ask them directly."

Well Ms. Griffin got herself taken down in the paddy wagon for more insanity. (The Chattanoogan):

Conservative political activist June Griffin has been arrested for the theft of a Mexican flag from a Dayton business.

The 67-year-old Ms. Griffin, who ran for Congress in the recent election [is that not frightening?!], is facing misdemeanor charges of theft, vandalism and harassment and felony charges of civil rights violations.


She said on July 18 she had noticed a small Mexican flag at an Hispanic grocery in the former Rogers Drug Store. She stated, "I went in and there was nothing English in the store. There was one man who could not speak a word of English." She said she was outraged about the Mexican flag, saying it was an "act of war" and it "insulted my citizenship."

Ms. Griffin said as the Hispanic man watched, she tore off the flag from where it was suctioned to the building and left with it. She said, "Foreigners should learn English or leave."

...She said she had been to local governments trying without success to get them to ban all but American flags. Ms. Griffin said the operator of the Days Inn at Dayton "flew a British flag on of all days July 4." She said she went to him to protest the British flag.

H/t, James.
