i dunno what the real story is, but whether this actually happened on a public sidewalk or on private property is *extremely* important.

if it was a public sidewalk, then everyone is right to be outraged, and i am as well.

if it was private property, then the property owners had every right to ask the guy to leave...and, if he did not, then he was trespassing.

I don't trust the MSM, but I'm siding with them on this one, especially given the current backdrop.
