I'm sure Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh give him a rationale for supporting the rebels with a lost cause. Can it really be so that almost half the country has gone absolutely batshit crazy?<br /><br />johntatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10088632798195131329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-68858294471502797302021-01-14T14:03:53.942-06:002021-01-14T14:03:53.942-06:00Dear Patrick: Those people desperately trying to k...Dear Patrick: Those people desperately trying to keep that mob from killing our elected representatives were not "security guards." They were Capitol Police -- sworn officers belonging to a police force, just as much as anyone in the CPD. That you would take the mob's side against them shows that your professed love of "police and law enforcement" is bullshit.Bitter Scribehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04645909858616987997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-78798399275277461582021-01-14T04:33:29.622-06:002021-01-14T04:33:29.622-06:00Yoour response reminds me of a headline I saw year...Yoour response reminds me of a headline I saw years ago, in Minneapolis:<br /> <br />"Distraction a top cause of--Hey! A kitty!"<br /><br />You were exceedingly polite and a lot more charitable than I would have been. I'd have asked him why he believed I despised cops and law enforcement. I'd have briefly mentioned the ride-along I took one Christmas Eve, years ago, on the South Side. And then I'd have tactfully told him exactly where he could display his steenkeeng bahdge. I have no tolerance for the resentment, bitterness, and ill will of the Trumpsters. A diplomat, however, would know how to tell a Trumpster to go to hell--and also make him look forward to the trip.<br /><br />But then, I'm not you. Nor do I respond like you. Which is probably why I am where I am in life, and you are where you are. Can't wait to hear your take on the outcome of Impeach Bowl II. And I do wish I could stay as cool and as calm and as level-headed as you seem to be, especially during these trying and terrible times. <br /><br />All the best.Grizz 65https://www.blogger.com/profile/02892702223228764894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-86047147578255525302021-01-14T01:09:34.922-06:002021-01-14T01:09:34.922-06:00Patrick, you are so very wrong about with that lie...Patrick, you are so very wrong about with that lie when you wrote: "You also claim protesters were there to hang Nancy Pelosi, another lie.
