NY lawmaker apologizes to Kirkwood
ROCHESTER, N.Y. — A New York lawmaker apologized for making a petulant allusion to a rampage at a town hall in Missouri while sheriff’s deputies were escorting him and fellow protesters out of a heated public meeting.
“And you guys wonder why there’s violence, you guys wonder why. You wonder why a guy in Missouri goes and shoots some damn body,” state Assemblyman David Gantt remarked as he was led out of Monroe County’s legislative chambers on Tuesday.

Gantt said that he intended to get across a message that people who are shut out of decision-making will act out. But he insisted that he has always preached nonviolence and said the Missouri attack was clearly wrong.
I wonder if one NYS Assemblyman David Gantt ever had a nickname. If he did, I wonder if that nickname alluded to a flat, round, circular cake.
As for the substance of his remarks, I hope by now you can knock that slow meatball out of the park.
