Alabama man shoots his TV because Caitlyn Jenner

And in Alabama this happened.

QuoteCaitlyn Jenner is back in the spotlight after she received the Arthur Ashe courage award at the ESPYs Wednesday night, but for one man, it was the last straw.

Jenner, who came out as a transgender woman in April, has received plenty of backlash ever since ESPN announced that she would receive the award. Alabama resident Bobby Knight has had enough of her, and he wants to "remove this portion of garbage [from his] life."

Instead of, saying, hiding Jenner's name from Google search results or avoiding news articles about her, Knight took more drastic action. Since she appeared on his TV, he took his TV outside and shot it.

Judging from the age of the TV (90s or early 00s) I'm thinking he already had a brand spanking new flat screen TV in his living room before he did this. I'm also guessing he couldn't find anyone to unload his old TV on so he came up with this as a way of disposing of the ol' cathode ray tube as well as looking like a total redneck in the process for his buddies.

He missed a golden opportunity to throw a javelin at that TV.

who gives a damn? i can't stand bruce jenner either but you know what i don't pay any attention to it whatsoever. he may be a woman now but i could care less. it affects me NONE! this guy is just an idiot. kinda like that father who shot his daughters laptop a couple years back. but that i can forgive cause he was trying to teach her a lesson and it actually worked but this guy is just an idiot.

Never really thought about Jenner-I recall that awful movie CANT STOP THE MUSIC (1980)

My car took a s**t one day-I busted out all the glass(including the headlights)with a baseball bat-my neighbors thought I was crazy.
My kids thought it was cool as all hell.

that may have been stupid to do that, but that i at least get cause you were p**sed off about it breaking down. that i can understand a lot more than shooting a tv cause just you don't like someone.
