It's kinda funny.. 'cause I didn't mean to post this as an OP.. I was saving the tweet to post on another thread.. and instead of hitting "preview" I hit "Send".

So all of a sudden it was an OP.. I was going to self-delete.. but then I thought.. "what the heck".. it's a good tweet!

Even after everything that's been thrown at him, he has not wavered. Pretty inspirational.

the automatic weapon attack.. he and his fellow survivors have to deal with the rwingers coming after him with every ugly insult they can swarm up.

And, James Shaw doesn't even get acknowledged by the pervert in wh.. because why?

Which I guess by comparison still seems like nothing when you've been through what those KIDS survived. They are Phenomenal!

We are a closely divided state as far as political leaning goes, so every bit of input helps. We are fighting for a DFL seat that we should not have to fight for. Amy Klobuchar is also up for reelection. A double wammy, but hopefully that will bring out more Democratic voters. Please, please, please!

to VOTE and GOTV!#YPWW

I read something earlier that Amy Klobuchar has a real nasty winger running against her. Said Amy was on "Team Terrorist"..

Good Luck in Minnesota!

Amy has a strong following in Minnesota, and hopefully she will garner the support she needs. She is a real warrior for Minnesota, and deeply involved in her constituency. I hope this will continue to carry her to victory again this fall. Thank you, Cha!

how popular she is in Minnesota!

"Terrorist" is the go to word for trumpers.. Oliver North just called the Parkland activists "Civil Terrorists".

They need to have that word thrown right back in their Sociopathic, collective face.

Thank you, pazzyanne!
