Lord knows it’s way too crazy down here! "That’s essentially what a 'feisty' Richmond, Virginia, woman communicated in her official obituary printed in Tuesday’s Richmond Times-Dispatch.

IMO, it looks like a political statement in the form of a joke, but the only person who knows for sure what she meant is no longer available for comment.

OK, according to Snopes: "... Mary Anne Noland's obituary reflects a tongue-in-cheek political statement about the upcoming presidential election that her family members or friends chose to insert into it; the obituary doesn't literally state that she opted to kill herself rather than have to make a choice between the two leading candidates.) "The Richmond Dispatch also pointed out that the obituary for Mary Anne Noland was not the first to mention politics. The obituary for Ernest Overbey Jr., for instance, ended with a call to 'please vote for Donald Trump.' Similarly, the obituary for Katherine Michael Hinds said that 'in lieu of flowers, do not vote for Donald Trump.'" http://www.snopes.com/obituary-trump-clinton/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it doesn't seem that the lady communicated that, but her family making a sick joke. You are really stooping low posting this kind of thing..... some real serious agenda here.

VATICAN CITY – The most severe form of religious penalty – excommunication – has been delivered to Republican presidential front-runner and real estate mogul Donald Trump by Pope Francis, sources close to the Vatican report. Citing “behavior recognized as un-Christian to the community of the faithful,” the papal decree does not bar Trump from entering church, nor does it strip him of his faith; rather, it excludes him from participation in the sacraments of the Church, and will serve as a strong message that will “hopefully guide him toward repentance, and bring him back to the path of righteousness.” During an Aug. 19 interview, Trump was asked what he would do if Pope Francis were to criticize either him or capitalism during the pontiff’s upcoming September visit. Trump’s reply was that he’d remind the Pope that ISIS was out to get him. Some Trump supporters say the excommunication order was in response to Trump’s comment. I thought Trump was a Presbyterian. Does the Pope have any sway over that church...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
