Mall Cop Rage

Josh Hendrickson

Like I always like to say, wherever a right-wing freak shows up at an Obama event packing heat, TPM will be there. And with that in mind I just wanted to bring you up to date on the gun-toter du jour from early September, Mr. Josh Hendrickson from Minnesota.

We finally got a hold of his court records and learned details of what TPMer Justin Elliott aptly terms “an unfortunate flareup of Mall Cop Rage” that landed Hendrickson in the slammer for three months just before he showed up to welcome the president with his Glock and a Kel Tec 380.
