Civil discourse: The local angle

Reader Trent Kelso writes with a suggestion that hits close to home:

[Minnesota Governor] Mark Dayton should really get out in front on this issue and call for Target Corporation to change its corporate name to something like “Unicorn Corp.” or “Teddy Bear Inc.” One trembles to think how close we may have already come to having had the unstable Dayton flip out due to his close association with the family business.

Kelso adds a serious comment: “This immediate and cynical reaction by the Left to the Tucson shooting is proof (as if any more were needed) that it is fundamentally dishonest and that it will say or do almost anything to achieve the societal power it craves and that it feels it is entitled to.” As Glenn Reynolds would say. . . Indeed.
