I was just in Lansing 4 days ago on the way to Muskegon, MI for a funeral service for a long time friend, who was a proud MSU Alum, I'm wearing her MSU hat right now, my late father knew and was friends w/a # of faculty, administrators, and students @ Michigan State, and growing up in Columbus w/OSU I feel like I have lost a good friend. To come back from Michigan and then to wake to a Lansing Hospital's Director breaking down, the pain etched in Gov. Whitmer's face, and the security director for the campus of MSU saying enough is enough and we have to stop this bloodshed makes my heartache. Fuck your thoughts and prayers.

Good for him! I'm glad some elected officials are pushing back against (100% worthless) prayers.

I've noticed crossover between RW talk radio hosts and sports broadcasters, too.
