"Dumb broad...?" Don't know where you're headed with this. And, I don't know why a seemingly intelligent young lady would push through a 3-4 deep crowd of a duly-license gathering to stand in front of a speaker. Nor do I know why I had to get shoved, pushed, and signs pressed into my back, when I strained to hear, barely, above yells and boos, the best speaker of the day: Chip Ford from the Citizens for Limited Taxation who addressed the crowd attempting to talk about the corruption of the citizen petition process. I wish I could have heard all of what Mr. Ford had to say. Strange tactics from the 'opposition.' And, Editor, if I spoke or commented unkindly about this lady who I think acted very poorly that day, well, I do truly apologize. As for those who called me names for taking videos of their shoutings, swearing, etc., well, the videos (posted on several sites as I shared with as many groups as would take it) speaks for itself. I had hoped for better peformance from Mr. Lang and his crew: object, but don't swear, intimidate, etc. But, it was not to be. In the words of his chant that day "It's over, get over it, move on." Fair enough. He won. I was, a year later, glad to see the court trial end, and Larry C. acquitted. What? “Dumb broad…?” Don’t know where you’re headed with this.
