Brain cells and synapses are still evolving (if you believe in that stuff.) Maybe not evolving in the direction any sentient, intelligent human would want, but still, evolving.

The President-in-name-only doesn't need to worry his little head about evolving or learning anymore. He's where he's at, and will be, until the end of his time. (Please....)

12. Hasn't learned his lesson....he is a seasonal employee at the Great Smoky Mtns NP

and he is enjoying his 15 minutes of fame....and asking Park employees to write letters to the college to help him get back in.

According to my friend he is a re-enactor (sp?) and he says he did it for free speech--and his great grandfather. He's super religious and very far right in politics but not overtly racist that they've seen.

I would remind him that actions have consequences.

Why did he need that AR-15 he had on a sling, I wonder?

BTW, he wasn't doxxed by anyone. He gave his name to a reporter who was covering the incident. He has plenty of publicity now.

15. I really don't have a problem with Civil War re-enactors,

but once you pick up an AR-15, you are no longer a re-enactor.
