by: Tammy Marie Rose and Terry Jo Stone
recipient: Clay County Town Council and Clay County CCC racially motivated post on Facebook on

Clay County Development Corp. Director Pamela Taylor Ramsey posted a hateful, racially motivated statement to Facebook, which was not only liked by the Clay County Mayor Beverly Whaling, but commented on in a way that showed she agreed with her comments. Every grant and piece of paper Mrs. Taylor and Ms. Whaling have to fill out and sign promises equal opportunities and a racism free workplace.

Her post read:
"It will be so refreshing to have a classy, beautiful, dignified First Lady back in the White House. I'm tired of seeing a Ape in heels."

The mayor of Clay, Beverly Whaling then liked and replied to that post, saying "Just made my day Pam."

They both need to go. This type of public discourse is completely unacceptable.
