Burke didn’t really apologize, IMO. She should have said nothing about the point she was trying to make about the president. She should have merely said she was sorry for her boorish behaviour. Her apology was basically “I’m sorry I yelled, but it was really Trump’s fault for being so degrading to women”. No sale.

The left hates it when their bad behavior is called out and they start to feel the heat that folks on the other side of the spectrum feel everyday.

They believe they should be able to berate Trump supporters free from consequences.

Now they're playing the "a MAGA hat is as hurtful as a swastika armband or Klan hood" card.

There are still many pockets of liberals in the conservative state of Texas. Houston is filled with crazy libs. I man, they elected an openly gay liberal woman as mayor. The conservatives have mostly fled to the suburbs.

Thank you! I love a good sense of humor!

Some just seem to lack it.

The advice she got from her lawyer re: an apology, was the worst I’ve ever heard of. Pathetic.

Self-important councilwoman saw a 14 yo girl with a Trump shirt in line at a local sweet shop. Said councilwoman said
Grab ‘em by the pussy!” to the girl.

Girl recorded and posted on interwebz. Post went viral and said councilwoman is getting her just desserts: dropped from local organizations, doxxed, probably looking at arrest and losing her council spot.

Lefty reporter doesn’t understand why.

I have to agree. That article was honest and trying to put her in a good light at the same time. It didn’t work.

“She’s a member of Moms Demand Action, a group that promotes stricter gun laws...serving as a member of the West University Place City Council, where she enjoyed working on issues like zoning and recycling.”

She’s a Nanny State psycho-bitch.

(Just my opinion.)

No sympathy for the councilwoman.
As an elected official she should have been even more circumspect in her public behavior than average folks.
And average folks don’t act like that.

Not once did I ever yell at any of the idiots wearing shirts glorifying the Kenyanesian Usurper.

Those “I’m sorry, but....” apologies do not work out so well in some situations now do they buttercup?

You start yelling back, "Sean Smith, Christopher Stevens, Tyrone S. Woods and Glen Doherty! What difference does it MAKE?"

There is a lot to be said for minding one’s own business. I highly recommend it. Too bad this Burke woman didn’t follow this simple rule.

Haven’t heard of the story yet through the usual channels...I’m not on Twitter but I suspect the Book Store owner won’t have any issues the way the Red Hen did...after all...the owner didn’t kick anyone out but instead called the police on a trouble maker who was ‘breaching the peace’ if I understand your story correctly.

Yeah, I know Houston is full of freaks...and it is surprising. I wish Texas would become Texas again—100%.

Kentucky used to be this way. So Texas was always my “last stand and fight” place. After all, the second largest group at the Alamo were Kentuckians (like Sam Bowie).

Unlike the Trumpers, the Kenyanesian Usurper types would trash your house and car later while you are asleep or away.
