He may be on his way out, but he refuses to go away quietly. Even as Assembly leaders take steps to
force him out,
Steven Brooks remains defiant. And he made
this surprising comment when speaking to
The Sun's Anjeanette Damon.
Asked for reaction to the Democrats’ decision [to remove him from their caucus], Brooks said: “It’s the dumbest thing they’ve ever done.”
Then he added: “No, don’t say that. I love them still.”
Brooks said he has no plans to join the Republican caucus.
“Why would I do that? I just like to fight for my 2nd Amendment rights,” he said, in apparent agreement with a Republican stance. “Other than that, I stand alone. Only God stands with me.”
No really, he said that. And frankly, considering the chain of events there, "fighting for 2nd Amendment rights" takes a chilling new meaning. It's a reminder of how close Carson City might have been to a very dangerous situation.
And that's not all. Back down south, Southern Nevada law enforcement are participating in a massive multi-state man-hunt. A former Los Angeles police officer is wanted on a murder charge in Orange County, California, he's a person of interest in other recent shootings in Southern California, and he now may be
hiding here.
