... at least the Maryland Governor appears to be an adult who understands the menace.

>>Most of the agitators are bussed in.

If that can be substantiated then the individuals and organizations responsible should be exposed and their errors rendered less dangerous.

What’s international A.N.S.W.E.R. Inc. calling itself this week?
