Melissa Harris-Perry: "I don’t know if he was there to kill me" [View all]

http://ajccenter.wfu.edu/2016/02/02/5756/

I don’t know if he was there to kill me.

Monday night I was sitting in a hotel lobby in downtown Des Moines with my back to a wall of windows, my eyes fixed on the TV, my attention wholly focused on early caucus results. I didn’t notice until he was standing right next to me, much closer than is ordinary or comfortable. When he started he speaking it was like he was picking up in the middle of sentence, finishing a conversation we had begun earlier, but I couldn’t remember ever meeting him.

“…So what is it that you teach?”

“I am a professor of political science.”

much more at link. Got this via dailykos. MHP is ok, but she was badly scared by this disturbed angry man.
