J'aime Montréal
Yeah, I think growing up in New Orleans left him with a little bit of a French inferiority complex that he felt he could finally make amends for once he got north of the border

My grandmother swore to her dying say that he was gay but she was also a borderline Nazi so nobody quite knows what to make of that

My grandmother was Catherine Staub Garland, and he was her nephew. I grew up in Houston, so whenever there was an old timers game after he retired, my dad would take me to the Dome to hang out with him

She was a mother, like me. Her friend in the car witnessed it, and was interviewed covered in blood on the street a few minutes later.

I just saw the video and she was trying to leave. They shot her immediately. The news is already lying and saying she was rioting. NPR read the DHS statement /4
