The No More Names rally in Concord, NH was taken over by gun thugs, carrying multiple weapons, who had bullhorns and shouted down the speakers, including elderly nuns. A drunk asshole got in the face of a speaker whose daughter was killed by her ex, and was eventually arrested. They circled around us like sharks,

This was a show that he put on intentionally. He had his own videographer there. He used this to gin up wingnuts and get on every wingnut radio station in NH and beyond. I'm betting he'll be filing papers next month to run for the legislature. This was attention whoring and manipulation.

The level of hyperbole in this sentence ruined the rest of a pretty great story for me:

Rich white guy whining. Not exactly a newsflash.

I love your mother.

Me, too.

Congratulations on the impending star rising in the east!

I received this email, too. My post menopausal ovaries were quite surprised.

Judith Light looks like someone's drunken demented aunt who went out to the bar wearing her pajamas.

"I don't look her in the eyes, because I will be turned into stone," Gunn told the paper at an A&E event.

Well, no you really haven't. Why would you say the soldiers were defending the kid's right to free speech if that's not what you meant? YOU were the one making the "dying for our freedom" argument that you're trying to waltz away from.

What a steaming pantload. The only thing those soldiers are defending is the profits of weapons manufacturers and warmongers.

Nonsense. I'm 58 and I absolutely refuse to recite the pledge. The US is the only country in the free world that expects its citizens to swear a loyalty oath on a regular basis. I don't take oaths of any kind.

If my second husband had tried that, I bet we'd still be married.

"Opens Up" is the latest trite, overworked, media phrase. It's as annoying as "lean in" and "flaunting."

No shit - a book about a mass shooting at a high school and they get upset about sex?

This was a Big Staged Event, in my opinion, by one of the many members of the NH Freedumb and Libertea contingent, full of sound and fury. Baer's got interviews with all the wingnut radio stations, and wingnut media is the prevailing
