Some guy in Minnesota's Mall of America thought he'd make a political statement by throwing tomatoes at Sarah Palin during one of her book signings.
He missed her, but hit a policeman in the face while spattering a second officer with pulp.
The thrower, Jeremy Olson, has no permanent address. He does now. Bloomington city jail.
Jeremy Olson, good Minnesotan name, though.
Oh my, this is terrible. Uffda, naydah, as we say in Minnesota. I hope that this jerk doesn't reflect badly on what Minnesotans are like at Christmas. [He must have come from another state.] I was at MOA yesterday (see my pix on my blog) and the crowd was orderly. Security was present.
