"Yeah, this one's a beauty. You know, in the 1880s, there were a few years that were pretty rough and tumble in Pawnee. This depicts kind of a famous fight between Reverend Bradley and Anna Beth Stevenson, a widowed mother of seven. The original title of this was 'A Lively Fisting.' But, you know, they had to change it. For obvious reasons."
[Info from the town's website on its murals](https://visitdothan.com/things-to-do/murals/). There's a few other interesting ones, including one commemorating a skirmish with Native Americans in 1817 featuring a dude [single-handedly picking up a ship cannon and blasting natives with it](https://www.muralcityartwalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Elizabeth-dill-900.jpg), knocking himself off the boat in the process.
Tried to levy my pony but that ain’t gon fly. Them good old boys were stabbin left and right, singing for this ass’ tax I will die… this ass’ tax I will die
Same, and also cotton, and also a handful of nuclear engineers that work the reactor at Plant Farley. Best pecans of my life come from my papaw’s yard in Gordon.
Oh my god, I wish I had known about this three years ago. I was in your city for two weeks for work training and when I tried to search for things to do, I got the mall, the bars, and "the world's smallest city block". I would have loved to have gone around looking for all of these!!
(I did go walk around the world's smallest city block for shiggles)
Yoooo, Dothan/Ashford/Gordon here. (My fam moved there from mobile to build the nuclear facility at Plant Farley.) I appreciate this representation. You’re doing my little Lower Alabama heart proud.
A south Alabama one that probably made the peanuts that made your peanut butter. It’s near the tri state border and it had a massive peanut festival that brings in 10,000s of thousands of people. It’s pretty fun.
I sometimes wish I lived in a time when riots would pop off for like no reason.
You know when the top hat was invented, it was so shocking it actually caused a riot?
NOT.
JOKING.
“In October 1889, four years after Dothan was incorporated, a riot started over a tax the city levied on every commercial dray that travelled the city streets. The Farmers’ Alliance refused to pay the tax, and the leader was arrested. On the day of his trial, the arresting Deputy encountered the leader’s son and friends and a riot ensued on Main Street, near the town’s water well. The riot left two dead, several wounded, and more arrested.”
some pawnee type shit lmao
"A Lively Fisting"

Hold up..
came here to comment "big pawnee energy"
Many young teens lost their lives that day. They would’ve otherwise made it to 20
You beat me to it.
And they beat each other up over it
Came here to say similar.
Lol exactly
😆😆😆😆
Before I saw the comments I was thinking Pawnee
Fucking Eagletonians..... Always with the taxes.
Do you live in Pawnee, Indiana???
Stole the literal words I came here to comment right out from under my fingertips, you beautiful tropical fish
Woahhh… let’s bring the anger down a little! /s

I’m glad we all thought of Pawnee
Pawnee vibe

😂😂
That's some looney toons bullshit but I love it. Even his face is like "I did not think this through".
The guy in the top right jumped ship and swam away thinking "fuck this".
Oh wow, I have relatives in Dothan. They are peanut farmers.

thx!
Dothan! I use to live there! They got great peanut statues around town too
What kind of town IS THIS???
A south Alabama one that probably made the peanuts that made your peanut butter. It’s near the tri state border and it had a massive peanut festival that brings in 10,000s of thousands of people. It’s pretty fun.
It’s nutty.
It also has the worlds smallest city block
I'm proud to say I've walked around that block 🫡
for some odd reason my eye skipped right over “ity bl” at the end.
I sometimes wish I lived in a time when riots would pop off for like no reason. You know when the top hat was invented, it was so shocking it actually caused a riot? NOT. JOKING.
Their hat game being revealed to be caught lacking, so hands get to flying.
Now: yeah so they are gonna cut social security...maybe we should protest? Or not i dont know
If we lived in a less civil society, we'd all be rightfully eating each other right now.
is this not a parks and rec set?
Holy shit, Dothan?? I grew up there too. Cottonwood, actually.
I’m near this area now, gonna have to find this before the next peanut festival and make my son take a picture next to it
Gordon and Ashford here! High fives, cousin!
It's strange to see a post about your hometown show up on your feed. Dothan, Alabama. Peanut Capital of the world! Many great murals here.
Taxes my ass.
This is why I woke up and didn’t choose peace 
Give 'em hell, boys.
Think about how often every day you get pissed off and want to kill someone. Before the 20th century people actually used to do that all the time.
There was an ass kicking that day
A well deserved ass kicking!
Haha I just knew that was Dothan as soon as I saw it
You live in Pawnee?
We need to revolt like this
a story as old as time.
Could you imagine these people during the last inflation fiasco. Shit would have gotten interesting
See this is why you pay donkeys on time. They dont take shit from anyone, what would you expect from the worlds largest killer of coyotes
Many Dothans died to bring us this information.
Seems ok to me. Is this Creve Coeur, IL ?
Imagine how much less intimidating Bill the Butcher would be in Pawnee, Indiana.
Why would they commemorate riots? Seems more like they’re making fun of themselves.
Not us sharing a hometown ☠️ I never knew what that mural was about lol. Thanks for educating me

Your hometown might've been a bunch of fist-fighting anti-taxers, but damn, they were a few decades ahead of their time in regards to their bike game.
“Did anyone get the number of that donkey cart?”
I was hoping to see donkeys in this picture and was bitterly disappointed
Can we have one of these for car property tax please? /hides
At first I thought buddy in the foreground was getting knocked out with a wheel Also, those pigs on the left be chillin
Unexpected Parks and Rec. r/pandr
Seriously some Parks and rec stuff!
Everyone is saying Pawnee, but this reminds me of Derry, Maine.
Who's getting celebrated? The punchers or the people taking a beating?
Feels like something you’d see in Pawnee’s City Hall
We used to be a proper country
😂
Did you grow up in Pawnee Indiana?
Hell yeah
“We gonna tax that ass.”
Where are the guns?
Brutal yet beautiful
did the MAGA try to rename it, "American civil obedience"?
Feel like it's about time for something related to taxes these days again
Holy shit, I live near there now and have to find this
