[Lnc-business] Hybrid Convention idea

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

Mr. Phillips, your comments go way beyond the bounds of decorum.  I do not
know what has gotten into you, but I will not engage with that kind of
baseless rhetoric.

It is unfortunate you think you have to posture in that manner when
although I absolutely disagreed with your vote last time I went out of my
way on social media to defend you.

I oppose hybrid on bylaws grounds. Don't you dare insult my character by
claiming I want to kill people.  That is outrageous.

*In Liberty,*

found anything offensive or overly off-putting (or some other social faux
pas), please contact me privately and let me know. *
