Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear hanged in effigy as Second Amendment supporters protest coronavirus restrictions
What started out as a freedom-loving celebration of the Second Amendment ahead of Memorial Day turned into Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear being hanged in effigy and protesters chanting outside the governor’s mansion.
The Second Amendment rally, meant to inspire people “about what it really means to be FREE,” according to Take Back Kentucky, attracted at least 100 people to the Kentucky State Capitol in Frankfort on Sunday.
It began as a celebration of cons utional rights but turned into a protest of coronavirus restrictions and Beshear’s administration. Folks toted guns and waved American and “Don’t tread on me” flags. Taps honored the fallen, and free flags were given to veterans from all military branches.
Tony Wheatley of Cons utional Kentucky, invoking Benjamin Franklin, said, “We have a republic, if we can keep it.” Calling on the crowd to recognize their ownership of the Cons ution, he called legal hurdles making it harder to protest corruption.
Pastor Cliff Christman said that law isn’t relative, and to understand the country’s laws, one should understand Biblical law.

The effigy was swiftly condemned by leaders on both sides of the aisle, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.
"As a strong defender of the First Amendment, I believe Americans have the right to peacefully protest," McConnell said on Twitter. "However, today’s action toward Governor Beshear is unacceptable. There is no place for hate in Kentucky.”
Kentucky Secretary of State Michael Adams, also a Republican, called the effigy "disgusting" on social media.
"I condemn it wholeheartedly," he tweeted. "The words of John Wilkes Booth have no place in the Party of Lincoln."
