In reply to the discussion: What fun! I got hassled tonight collecting Recall Walker signatures! [View all]Hassin Bin Sober
(27,461 posts)55. Yep.
I had a similar conversation with my freeper sister-in-law.
It started with her enjoyment at an 80 year old woman being pepper sprayed on University property - you would have to know my sister-in-law to know what a hypocrite she is because she just became a gun owner last year and can't shut up about her guns and her second amendment rights....
Anyway, after she voiced, to me and the rest of the family, her glee at protesters being sprayed I couldn't help pointing out to everyone that Beth only knows about the 2nd amendment and never heard of the first.
That's when she went in to her denial mode about how state universities are on private public property.
