[PA-RIVER]

Lakin is like the young boy who jumps from the trench and runs straight into fire and whips the grenade at the enemy, after being pinned down for hours. Everyone in the trench is hoping he hits his mark, but no one wants to die on that field. And when that boy who charged the field is shot down, and cries for his mother, some of the guys in the trench will shake their heads and call him a stupid bastard. It takes all kinds.

Lakin is like the young boy who jumps from the trench and runs straight into fire and whips the grenade at the enemy, after being pinned down for hours. Everyone in the trench is hoping he hits his mark, but no one wants to die on that field. And when that boy who charged the field is shot down, and cries for his mother, some of the guys in the trench will shake their heads and call him a stupid bastard. It takes all kinds.

A more apt analogy is that Lakin is the guy who announces to the world that he is going to attack a fortified enemy position while wearing a clown suit and armed only with water balloons. The rational people plead with him not to do this, that it won't end well while the birthers, hiding behind their conspiracy blogs cheer him on and call him a patriot.

The quite inevitable conclusion of Lakin being cut to pieces in his clown suit happens, the people who predicted this and tried to warn against it aren't the least bit surprised while the birthers who encouraged such a foolish act from the safety of their keyboards are despondent and outraged.
