Has he said anything against anyone or are people just making assumptions?
I've got no axe to grind with Maurice Bessinger, but evidently some folks do. I'm not taking a side here (and certainly don't support what was apparently written in the Baltimore Sun), just sharing some what's been said about Maurice & his politics.
