    You don't know. I don't know. But continue your crusade against #FakeNews, boo.

    Many anti-Trump Americans do seem to be going insane.

    No wonder. Your president is a fucking goof. I'd be mortified.

    A perfect time for reasoned opposition. Alas ...

    He's a fucking goof, yes, but the hysterics have gotten tiresome. Both statements are true.

    A. It was FakeNews. A reporter who cared, could have easily learned where the governor was... from news reports.

    2. There's no way the Governor's office told anyone he was "too busy" when he was out of town, attending a funeral. Their job isn't to make him look bad. And, if they had said that, it would have been reported, with an actual quote, from some news organization.

    iii. He ended the day... meeting with these very students, so let's not try to give the impression that he was ducking them.

    I need to study and think through the law a little more thoroughly, but the idea that we are going to background check for mental illness is difficult for me to get my head around. These are people's private medical records. I suppose life insurance conditions purchase in that manner, but that's the choice of a private business.

    I dunno, man. His response to school shootings, after requiring a written reminder to empathize with the bereaved in his presence, was to talk about arming teachers. I think hysterics is probably the right reaction.

    Is your privacy more important than children's lives?

    Though some here will probably be very surprised to hear this, my privacy would not be at issue. Nothing to find. :)

    These sentiments are always expressed by people who assume they are immune from the negative consequences.
