Hatred and Ignorance in Good Ole Georgia

First the hatred, some good old-fashioned antisemitism:
A historically Jewish fraternity’s house was the target of graffiti Sunday.

Emory University officials said Alpha Epsilon Pi was the target of “crude, offensive graffiti, including swastikas,” early Sunday morning, shortly after the end of the observance of Yom Kippur.
And now the ignorance, the anti-drug cops in Georgia can't tell the difference between pot and okra:
A Cartersville man is upset after he said investigators mistook a garden full of okra for marijuana plants.

The man growing the popular Southern food said a helicopter woke him up Wednesday and then he had deputies show up at his door.
The cops said that okra is similar to pot, in that both plants are green and have leaves.

  3. Look, everybody knows that okra is a gateway vegetable. First they're doing okra. Next thing you know, they're doing eggplant and cucumbers. The horror, oh the horror!
