That was evident when, during a tour of Bears Ears, Native American activist Cassandra Begay asked Zinke if he was planning to meet with local tribe leaders. Zinke responded by putting a finger in her face and instructing, “Be nice, don’t be rude.”  

I am about as unsentimental a person as I’ve encountered, including the “too soon” Deadspin commenters, to the point where I begin to wonder if I’m a socio and/or psychopath. Still, I understand that the living are allowed to feel sympathy and offense at the humiliation of the dead, be they animal or human. I’ve…

I suppose your quibble with word choice is valid according to the letter of the law. However the spirit of what she’s asking is whether it is acceptable human behavior to be making outrageous attempt at physical comedy out of the death of an animal like this.

Give him a break that was the most honest press conference he’s given to date.

Was Pence there, or were there too many non-wife women showing ankle for him to participate?

The best way to handle Milo is to starve him of attention. Don’t voice outrage at his stupid statements. Don’t print interviews with him. Let him have his troll festival but stay away. Don’t have a counter protest, that just feeds the beast.

Maybe you should have taken a “free government ride” to learn what “deferred” means.

If you looked up “stupid take” on Google, and then clicked Images, a screenshot of your comment here would be there.
