Just days after the mother of a bullied Tennessee student posted a video of her sobbing son, Keaton Jones, addressing his bullies; several compromising family photos have surfaced.

According to TMZ, Kimberly Jones, Keaton’s mother, has been faced with widespread backlash after her son’s video went viral. Many celebrities reached out the bullied child, while others offered him special gifts for being so brave to speak out against the bullying. However, since the controversial photos surfaced, many have begun to wonder about Kimberly’s views and beliefs.

Aside from the fact that Kimberly’s Facebook page reportedly consists of several photos of herself and friends holding or displaying the Confederate flag, she also reportedly posted a status two weeks after the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, telling people to “stop crying.” However, it remains unclear what exactly she was referring to.

“Dear butthurt Americans,” the post read. “If you aren’t bleeding, no bones are sticking out & you can breathe, STOP crying! For the love, some folks clearly never picked a switch. And before ya’ll start talking to me about metaphorical, emotional, financial or historical blood & brokenness, Don’t. Join a group.”

In the meantime, others have questioned the reason behind the Gofundme account in honor of Keaton. MMA fighter, Joe Schilling has even called out Keaton’s mother, claiming the woman “just wants money.” However, it remains unclear if the woman he was in contact with is, in fact, the real Kimberly Jones.
