    The suspect has been identified as 33-year-old James McIntyre, from Illinois. He has been charged with assaulting a government official.

    This reference to Mace as a “government official” makes me cringe; she’s the type of person who gets into government to destroy it.

      Isn’t this where the person shook the “government official’s hand” but later was arrested for assault?

      I’d love to see a video.

        I’m not sure about the specifics; it can be a challenge to keep up with all of this.

        (And after the first of the year it will probably get much worse.)

    Gee, I wonder why someone who has devoted themselves to fucking with a group of people might end up with a lot of people willing to do them harm?
