Massachusetts State Senator Scott Brown's "Meltdown" in the "Freak Show!"
Brown is not beautiful (but he was in Comos as a "Hunk")
This is a great story about how State Senator Scott Brown, (on right in Cosmo) out of Wrentham and leading candidate for the Massachusetts Republican nomination for U.S. Senate in 2008, had a "meltdown" in front of 80 King Philip's High School students at a student assembly. Brown had asked to speak to the students because he felt he had been "abused" by student detractors from King's Philip High School who made fun of him on their student run internet chatroom, "facebook."
At the assembly in King Phillip's High School auditorium, State Senator Brown called each student out, one by one, using curse words that every mother would be horrified to hear and would've covered their children's ears if they were there. Above the protests of all the teachers who were aghast at the state Senator's anti-social behavior and foul language, Brown refused to stop his child-like tirade calling each student out one by one in great pleasure.
If this man thinks he should be entitled to the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate just because there are only a few GOP contenders out there, then how can a man with such thin skin be able to defeat John Kerry whose skin is thin and cold-blooded already. What make's Brown think he can represent Massachusetts as United States Senator when it's obvious he can't even handle a few teenagers teasing him.

"...While picking on the dude’s daughter is not very nice, we have no compunctions about pointing out the fact that Brown won some kind of “Hunkiest He-Hunk” contest in Cosmo in 1982, which resulted in the photo spread you see above..." - Sun Chronicle Editorial
"...The high road became the low road during a high school assembly last week in Wrentham and, because of that, an important appeal to civility has been muddied. Sen. Scott Brown, R-Wrentham, alas, became what he was condemning..." - BlueMass Scoop on Brown
"...It's hard to figure what mischievous sprite temporarily possessed Senator Brown and warped his Republican mind into thinking that it was OK to use profanity in a school, in front of a bunch of sophomores, most of whom probably had nothing to do with the incident that got him all worked up...."

b. Why doesn't he just blame his freakout on "a bad reaction to medication" and check into rehab?
If you ask me I think those kids deserved to be called out. They need to be held accountable for their actions. High school kids always want to be "treated like adults" but they can't accept responsibility for their own words. It's better to learn this lesson now than when their older.
Brown wasn't trying to hurt anyone's feelings; he was just making a point about hate speech. The kids were dishing out their own hate speech against Brown while trying to say that people should be tolerant of all lifestyles? You can't have it both ways. You need to be tolerant of everyone, even those who don't share your view.

About This Blog

Mercy Otis an 18th century Cape Cod patriot is alive here. "Come swallow your bumpers, ye Tories, and roar, That the Sons of fair Freedom are hamper'd once more; But know that no Cut-throats our spirits can tame, Nor a host of Oppressors shall smother the flame. "In Freedom we're born, and, like Sons of the brave, Will never surrender, But swear to defend her, And scorn to survive, if unable to save..." The Massachusetts Song of Liberty.
