Franklin – Supporters gathered to welcome U.S. Senate candidate Harold Ford to Franklin were shocked at the outburst of an unidentified passerby who shouted racial slurs and sexual innuendos at the crowd.

Ford was not yet in attendance at the rally on the public square in Franklin’s downtown historic district, but someone in the crowd shouted back, “You’re a redneck!” after those gathered were temporarily silenced by the comments.
