Note to media wonks: “Keep it up you mental midgets. Keep egging the radicals on. You will be in their sights eventually.”

“One of Blair’s neighbors told WLBT that the 77-year-old was still working as a deputy because he was raising his grandsons after their mother died.

Blair had worked in law enforcement his whole life, doing stints as a paramedic and a school resource officer.”

While it may be true the guy was doing the rig thing in spite of his age.
