Bobby. Franklin. Total. Nut. Job.

Bobby Franklin seems intent on outdoing himself for sheer nuttiness

Ah, Bobby Franklin.

Even among his fellow Republican House members, the mere mention of the East Cobb lawmaker’s name reliably elicits a smile and shake of the head, usually followed by a comment along the lines of, “Bless his heart” or “You know, he’s actually a nice person.”

After all, what can you really say about a guy who’s bat-shit crazy — and, astoundingly enough, only seems to be getting crazier?

We thought Rep. Franklin had reached the lunatic fringe way back in aught-deuce, when he proposed a bill that called for women seeking an abortion to first obtain a “death warrant” from a Superior Court judge.

Since then, he’s predictably written other loony legislation to prevent abortions and expand gun rights, but this year…oooh, boy. Let’s just say ol’ Bobby’s gone off the rails on a crazy train.
