The controversial Sarah Palin Mannequin which was hung by a noose from West Hollywood residents ChadMichael Morrisette and his partner Mito Aviles houses sold on eBay Thursday for $2,247.22; or did it?.
In October of 2008 the mannequin, ChadMicheal and Mito were thrust into the media spotlight when they attached a noose around the mannequin’s neck and hung it from their roof. The exhibit drew gawkers and public condemnation but was allowed to stay on display because of the First Amendment to the United States of America (the First Amendment expressly prohibits laws that infringe the freedom of speech and infringe the freedom of the press). Although I do not agree with violence, violent art or violent political views I do agree with The First Amendment which also protects me to express my thought on the noose hanging Palin mannequin creators.
ChadMichael Morrisette and his partner Mito Aviles are a couple of dumb-asses!
P.s. according to the Los Angeles Times the winning bidder is pulling out of the sale.
