Explaining the roots of his outrage on Tuesday, Newsom said that during the backpack giveaway, he learned that a plastic playground set that had been built by the city with money donated by the Dave Matthews Band had been burned - not once, but twice.

"I go to see something where we did try to make their lives better, and it's melted. It breaks my heart, and I'm angry - I'm angry at myself, I'm angry at HUD, I'm angry at Gregg, I'm angry at the city for not stepping up and every single person who lives in every district who's never been to the housing (developments)," Newsom said. "I'm angry at all of us."

Angry at pretty much everyone except the barbarians who burnt the playground.

I too - am waiting for liberals to get angry at those who do evil. We shouldn't hold our breath waiting for them to get tough on those who break society's rules instead of repeatedly making excuses for their behavior and blaming society for making them do bad things in the first place.
