There’s a new sheriff in town at “ProtectMN”.<\/p>\n
She’s got size two shoes to fill.<\/p>\n
And they’ll be having a party to talk about it tonight:<\/p>\n
Dear Heinrich,
\nCome meet the new Executive Director of Protect Minnesota and learn how YOU can help\u00a0prevent gun violence in our state. The Rev. Nancy Nord Bence is excited to meet you, share\u00a0important information prior to caucusing on March 1, and hear your ideas for the growth of our\u00a0coalition. Wine and appetizers will be provided.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nAfter “Protect” MN’s last decade in the legislature, one might think the appetizer would be “crow”.<\/p>\n
But I imagine they’ll be knocking back the vino, all right.<\/p>\n
DATE: Thursday, February 25, 2016
\nTIME: Open House from 6:30-8:30pm<\/p><\/blockquote>\nI’m pretty sure you need to be on the guest list to show up.<\/p>\n
It’s right in the middle of the AM1280 Debate Party, so I won’t be able to attend.<\/p>\n
Coincidence? \u00a0I think not.<\/p>\n
LOCATION: Protect Minnesota Offices, 2395 University Ave W, Suite 204, St. Paul MN 55114. (That’s in the Security Building on the corner of Raymond and University.) Street parking is free after 5pm. Come to the entrance on Raymond Avenue and our doorman will let you in.
\nHope you’ll join us!
\nThe Rev. Nancy Nord Bence<\/p>\nwww.protectmn.org<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Welcome to the battle, Reverend Nord Bence. \u00a0I’ll extend you the same invitation I’ve been extending to your predecessor, Heather Martens, for the past decade; you can come on my show any Saturday afternoon and talk “gun safety”. \u00a0Hopefully you’ll be less pusillanimous than your predecessor.<\/p>\n
And just to show you I’m all about the same goals you are, I’ll do this for you:<\/p>\n
Audience Participation<\/strong>: \u00a0What advice do\u00a0you<\/em>, the smartest comment section in town\u2021, want to give Rev. Nord Bence?<\/p>\n
Go!<\/p>\n
\u2021 \u00a0Well, most of you, anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
