    REPORT: Locals Say Roy Moore Was 'Banned' From Gadsden Mall

    "Local Greg Legat, 59, who worked at the mall in early '80s and saw Moore at the mall "a few times, even though his understanding then was that he had already been banned."

    "It started around 1979, I think," Legat told Bethea. "I know the ban was still in place when I got there." Legat provided the name of a Gadsden police officer, J. D. Thomas, who he said told him at the time, "If you see Roy, let me know. He’s banned from the mall." Bethea reached out to Thomas, but he said only, "I don’t have anything to say about that."

    There so much more at the link, I posted this snippet because I know Mr. Legat. I worked beside Mr. Legat at the Gadsden Mall for two years. He was always a straight shooter. I have no reason not to believe his words. I personally never saw Moore's name on a banned list, but I only saw a banned list a couple of times.
    Couple this with Ms. Nelson press conf. yesterday, quite believable, the year book signing and other info I'm on the side of "Moore should step down now",not because he MAYBE guilty, but this will follow him to the Senate, if he wins, and generally deem what he says and does as not credible. His Alabama constituency deserves better.
    It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    When you couple all these allegations with all of his other controversies I simply don't get people supporting a cretin like this.
    One can be sure that he who says he knows knows nothing

    Partisanship is a terrible thing.
    “Conscientiously believing that the proper condition of the negro is slavery, or a complete subjection to the white man, and entertaining the belief that the day is not distant when the old Union will be restored with slavery nationally declared to be the proper condition of all of African descent, and in view of the future harmony and progress of all the States of America, I have been induced to issue this address, so that there may be no misunderstanding in the future”

    Alabama voters deemed what you and others consider controversial irrelevant. I don't believe they think the same now.

    Last I saw his Democratic opponent pulled ahead. Then again, polls are hard to trust these days. If I put money on it, I’d say if he doesn’t step down and wins, the Senate will vote pretty overwhelmingly to expel him.

    I am not taking that bet.

    Except they can't. SCOTUS ruled Congress cannot add to the requirement of the Constitution. The reps will vote that way and the courts will toss it. Look up Adam Clayton Powell.

    Powell’s case specifically applied to the House, not the Senate. The constitution permits the Senate to expel its members by two-thirds vote for “disorderly behavior” - sexually assaulting minors certainly qualifies as disorderly conduct.
