Another antimasker screaming tyranny and civil war and guns... this is in Santa Monica, California

The anger these people have is frightening... he is making threats

At protest in Santa Monica today before the vote on mask-mandate, Jason Lefkowitz has the home addresses of each LA City Council member on his sign. He says they are going to the homes of whoever votes for it, and if it passes, it’s “civil war, get your guns.”

I found a video of his “comedy” from 2015- really disgusting and intense misogyny…

They've always been that way. Now that they are comfortably retired with my mom's Social Security and my dad's union pension and they are, at last, full time artists.

My wife and I are artists with day jobs.

As a restaurant server and aspiring comedian I suppose Lefkowitz finds himself in a similar situation.

Unfortunately for him when the art failed to pay his bills and his job-of-the-day ended he never got over it.

My wife and I, and my parents, tend towards affability in such circumstances and quickly regain our footing.

Others turn mean.

That never ends well.

The streets of Hollywood are littered with the corpses of bitter artists.

My dear artist sister with day jobs has been beaten up by Hollywood far worse than this guy ever has, yet still, she persists and is increasingly successful as an artist and promoter of the arts because she always gets back up again and tries something different, no need to threaten people with guns.
