Does This Seem "Unhinged" To You?
[Posted by reader_iam]
Honestly, does it?
Frankly, the use of the word "unhinged" to describe what's shown in this video strikes me as far more over the top than the clip of Guiliani at a rally, even when he uses the word--gasp!--"bullshit." I mean, I've seen little old ladies in Iowa battling over the same handicapped space at the local grocery get more exercised than that. And I certainly have "screamed"--or just plain shouted--more loudly and vehemently when barking my shin in the middle of the night, on the way to the bathroom.
Maybe you just had to be there, at that cop union rally back in 1992.
Or something.
