MrsM and I ate lunch today with a friend in the Oregon District of Dayton, OH.


This was planned weeks ago. We are not lookie-los. We were going to change restaraunts, but our friend wanted to support the local businesses hurt by this unspeakable tragedy!



Every side street had media centers. From large Network TV trucks like I'm used to seeing at races to local vans. Satellite dishes everywhere. And, forget about the make-up people. SICK!!!!!!!


The entire sidewalk was covered with press. TV, radio and paper. Tents with bright lights set up.


Reporters begging locals for words.



How the hell is someone supposed to answer questions like "how did it see to see your best friend killed in front of you."


Someone from MSNBC came up to me and shoved a mic in my face. I just shoved them away and told them to leave me the F alone



They are all pond scum. Actually, they are lower than pond scum

Don Henley's song Dirty Laundry was 37 years ago and it was an old concept even then

Wait? So hoardes of reporters are flocked to the site of a mass shooting, and are asking locals their take on things?

Unheard of!

Anything you say can and will be spun into a narrative.

And if you did speak to that person from MSNBC, they'd of only aired your comments if it fit their agenda.

You of course realize that they do it because the public eats up that sensational stuff.
