I know I don't exactly take it easy on KY too often, but that's because most of the time Kentucky sucks. Being from Ohio, I'm not going to pretend Ohio doesn't suck, because it does. It's just that Kentucky sucks worse.
Case in point: My hometown (Cincinnati), gets kickass street artist guy Shepard Fairey to come in town and paint some murals around town. They talk to local businesses owners and find some people willing to dontate the side of their buidlings. Everyone agrees, murals are painted, everyone wins.
And then Kentucky comes in. The guy in Covington (Northern Kentucky) who agreed to let his building have a mural painted on it decides it's too controversial and thinks the image (a child soldier holding a machine gun) promotes kid violence. So he had it painted over. Total douche move.
Maybe if the child soldier was wearing cutoff denim shorts it would have been deemed ok for Kentucky.
