OP meant Killingly. The same town that recently tried to change the name of their sports teams from “Redmen” to “Red Hawks”, but then the town voted out the school board members and elected several republicans that only ran on the platform of overturning the name change vote. Now they will keep the Redmen name for their teams, but will lose $94k a year in funding from the Pequot/Mohegan tribes.

Yup, but what do you expect from a town where it's residents are that fucking invested in a high school team name.

Not only that, but one of the Republicans elected was literally an officer in an SPLC designated hate group.

Too bad because geographically Killingly isn’t so bad. Sucks it’s such a shithole
