Roy Moore, the Republican candidate for U.S. Senate from Alabama, fired off a tweet on Tuesday evening bragging about his “Alabama values.”
I think they're afraid I'm going to take Alabama values to Washington and I can't wait. #ALsen

His critics had plenty to say about those values given that Moore has been accused of sexual misconduct by multiple women, including some who say their encounters took place when they were teenagers.
they're afraid your gonna rape some teens - u sick idiot

What Alabama values are you referring? Voters keep electing politicians who are corrupt, won't follow the laws and have to be removed from office. Example: you. Twice.

Actually, I AM kinda afraid you will take Alabama values to Washington.

Besides the whole “you’re a pedophile” thing - there’s also Alabamas ranks…

#47 in Healthcare
#47 in Education
#45 in Economy
#42 in Crime/Corrections
#42 in Government
#50 in Infant Mortality
#49 in Obesity
Which of these are you wanting to bring? Plus you can’t keep a job.
There's so much wrong with this tweet I don't even know where to start.

You mean stalking young girls at the mall type of values?? Yes everyone is afraid of that.....

Is dating high school girls an Alabama value? Or just a Roy Moore value?

You mean these values? https://t.co/ps7Hvkxuis

Actually we're afraid you're going to molest more kids, you repugnant creep.

Even Ivanka doesn't want your "values"... pic.twitter.com/eNm4Sr4aMg

I think they're afraid you're going to treat the National Mall just like the mall back home. #ALSen

Thanksgiving with HIS family must have been super creepy.😳 pic.twitter.com/Jj6of9rRKL

Somehow I don’t think those values include creeping around the mall to try and date teenage girls. I mean, I could be wrong, but I feel like that’s not really an Alabama thing.
