... it sneaks out once and awhile but I've made a VERY CONSCIOUS effort to lose it. I mostly sound like I was born and raised in the MD/VA area and I just cringe when I hear redneck bumpkins like these two.

Doing a quick google, about the only thing I see is that he is successful and black... Reason enough for magats to hate him.

and next to Kaepernick he was maybe the most unapologetic supporter of the anthem protests.

I guess they can apply it to his commissary.
Lock him up.

Back home, when he did something criminally stupid, he'd just pull out his White Good-Ol'Boy privilege card, toss the deputy some cash for a bond, and he's free to go.
Sheriff will come by the next day, pat him on the head, and tell him "better not catch you doing that again" with a wink and an Andy Griffith smile the black folks in the county will never see...

That's what he expects.

The danger time for all those police, EMT, Fire and FBI on site? To say nothing of the cleanup of Toxics post arrest/explosion?

I'd really like to see them deliver the bill/warrants for all this. If they can charge a fool who drives into a flooded road for his rescue they can do it for causing this idiot's "last stand".

Could OANN, Fox or NewsMax be held similarly accountable?

The Confederate one?

He seems like a Good 'Ol Boy straight outta central casting. I like his side facial mask, though.

Grover is a town in Cleveland County, North Carolina, United States. The population was 708 at the 2010 census.

History
Grover is classified as a small town where railway and highway routes Interstate 85 and U.S. Highway 29 cross the state line between North Carolina and South Carolina. It was previously named Whitaker and legally was in South Carolina. The name change to Grover in 1885 was in honor of President Grover Cleveland.[5] Gingerbread Row, (Cleveland Avenue - NC Highway 216) has an antique look with many restored homes in beautiful colors.
