Georgia woman admits sending pig’s foot to Rep. Peter King
A Muslim woman has admitted to mailing a bloody pig’s foot and a threatening letter to Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.), as well as another bizarre package to a New York state senator.

The woman, Jameela Barnette, of Marietta, Ga., says she sent the package to King earlier this month to voice her dismay with the hearing he held last month on what he calls the “radicalization” of American Muslims.

“I thought the letters explain themselves,” she told the New York Post, speaking not only of the anti-Semitic note to King, but the one she says she sent to state Sen. Greg Ball, a Republican who has held his own hearings on Muslims and hosted King at the most recent hearing last week.

Just after the package to King was intercepted at a Maryland mail facility earlier this month, a congressional source told POLITICO the accompanying letter was “a rambling type” of message that referred to the congressman as a “Jew,” though he is Catholic.

1. Pig foot Pete
:rofl:

Pig Foot Pete

(Pig Foot Pete was written by Don Raye but this version contains so many Harry Gibson ad libs and lyric changes that it's included here. Harry played this song on the Connee Boswell radio show April 12, 1944, one week before his first recording session with Musicraft.)

(classical piano) Pig Foot stop that practicing up there. Play me some boogie woogie, man.

Well all right.

(boogie piano) Well that’s what I’m talking about. Yes, uh huh?
Well looka here, looks like my old friend, Harry The Hipster’s coming down here.
What you know Harry? What you doing, man? Ain’t seen you around the Apple lately.

Oh I been around Jack, just didn’t fall into you, I hear you playing that wild boogie woogie now. Solid, man, I got to fall in on it you it. Uh huh?
You seen any of the boys around?
Yeah man I just hit Cary the Clipster.
Oh solid, I know that cat, he’s in there.
Well, listen to some of that boogie now.

(boogie piano)

Yes, that’s what I mean. You going to chirp one for me, old man? Solid man.
I’ll fall in, I’ll do a little boasting. You know I ain’t no Connee Boswell but, I’ll put my story down

Well lets hear it, let’s hear it man.
Well all right.

Well out in Kansas City on One two street
They say that there’s a guy they call Pig Foot Pete
He plays on the piano by ear
And he’ll play all night for pigs feet and beer
He’s murder on the 88’s
He’s the guy who brought the boogie woogie up to date
He’s got a cannon in his left hand
He’s got a rifle in his right
He’s just a double-barreled gate, well I know you
And he shoots the eight-beat to you at a frightening rate
He’s a solid wiz, I’ll tell you who he is
He’s Pigfoot Pete, the boogie woogie elite

His hands are just as big as Virginia hams
And when he goes to work they’re like battering rams
When he’s playing that box, well look out man
The joint rocks, stick your feet to your socks
Wherever boogie woogie is part of the plan
You'll find Pig Foot Pete, the boogie woogie man

Pig Foot! Play me some of that jumping boogie woogie now. Yes, that’s what I’m talking about. Mmm, hmm.

The hard way. The hard way. Well look out, man let’s hear some bass.

(piano with heavy bass)

Stay with it, stay with it Jack.
Where are you going now Pig Foot?
I ain't going nowhere, I been where I was going.
Well get in that home stretch now
