As Twitchy told you, a mostly peaceful mob surrounded GOP Sen. Rand Paul late last night.

Anyone in their right mind — particularly someone who’d been violently assaulted by a neighbor — would fear for their life. So it makes sense that Paul was scared for his:
Just got attacked by an angry mob of over 100, one block away from the White House. Thank you to @DCPoliceDept for literally saving our lives from a crazed mob.

But for what it’s worth, Detroit-based PR firm president, author, and former journalist Ron Fournier thinks Paul’s fear was much ado about nothing. He said it a little more colorfully, of course:
Bed-wetting snowflake. https://t.co/TqvJpsvGDO

This is what TDS does to people .
They end up encouraging violence against any who they see as their political enemies.— mallen2010 (@mallen2010) August 28, 2020
Our greatest challenge in confronting our adversaries is to not become them.
