Correction: You knew one was coming. There had to be a typo somewhere in there, after all the typo and grammar nazi behavior on our part. Edited to remove an 'e' from the spelling of Attorney Erin Thorn's name. Thorne vs. Thorn, one imagines is a more anglicized version of the name. Thanks for the notification, happy to make that correction.

Well, by my own personal standard, Mr. Lee is objectively killing it. Not sure how old he is, but I'd be shocked if he was out of his 30s. Let's say he's 36 or 37. Running any kind of a statewide news organization at all, and having some kind of an official capacity in a statewide political campaign is pretty impressive. One feels pretty confident his mother loves him and is proud of him. And she should be.

Author's note, after a little bit more investigation, the photo we single out above-- the stock image from Alamy.com appears to be of riot police in Germany.

Leave it to the Germans to develop the newest kind of ball-busting knee boots. I'm not much of a protester anymore but I came away near those things I'd become a bystander. Great work, Matt. rcg

and I realize you're a stickler for typos so let the phrase "but I came away near those things" read, for the record, "but if I ever came anyway near those things"

Ja! Ich Bin Grammar Nazi! Thanks for reading, and like you, I wouldn't want to go near those things.
