But as MLK knows - even those who speak of peace and unity can be Harmed. This woman is the same damned fool that got folks in the middle of the country who've never been to NYC, and will never go to NYC - all up in arms and hateful over Park51 - google NYC mosque.

She can say whatever she wants.

But I'm not going to dodge in front of her to save her life if someone over reacts.

I would dodge in front of Rep Cummings. In the heat of the moment - he's a treasure and a just, kind, and inclusive man.

She's a hateful vindictive woman. Let someone who agrees with her speech and the place they come from - dodge in front of her.

I would never give up my life for a person like that. She's not good enough.

No. Tommy_Carcetti May 2015 #17
