Kids, you might want to Google the name of fellow Bay Area resident Brian Wilson. No, not the founder of the Beach Boys, who seemed to lose a chunk of his marbles for a time to drugs. This Wilson lost his legs in 1987 being run over by a 200,000-pound locomotive while protesting to help spread socialism in Central America. And speaking of socialism, why are leftwing protesters blocking Amtrak, America’s nationalized, socialist passenger trains? I thought the left liked passengers trains and “high-speed intercontinental rail” as as our malaprop-prone semi-retired president likes to say.
