Oh to be infinitely wealthy and fund a People's Pac that would fund and run subversive art like this on the airways every day!

I've been here all week, protesting ALEC and I have talked to most of the people who were protesting, but yesterday I was standing next to an attractive guy I hadn't seen before who was joining in with the rest.

A man with a camcorder began questioning this stranger - to me - and I heard the stranger saying that gun violence could be an option to resolve these issues. This seemed very odd to me, since I haven't heard anybody here say that before.

Later on, in an evening event, I saw the man with the camcorder taping everything that was going on and decided to walk over and ask him who he represented. At first he resisted, and seemed annoyed at my question, but then quickly admitted he was taping the event for Breitbart. I said, Breitbart's dead. He said "may he rest in peace" as my face struggled. I asked him if he was going to edit everything I said to him. At that point, a local came over and convinced me not to continue the conversation.

Turns out that, indeed, he and at least one other "reporter" were credentialed Breitbart agents.
