TIL that Virginia still has an anti-dueling statute on the books richmond.com/news/virginia/…

Happy early birthday to me

Tomorrow, Virginians decide whether to vote Corey Stewart into the US Senate.

Tomorrow marks 451 days since 8/12/17, the weekend when violent neo-Nazis came to beat & murder people on the streets outside my home.
