We're the Former Only Ones Trespassing Enough

A nursing supervisor alerted hospital security. They in turn notified police officers when they could not subdue Tillman, according to police and hospital officials.

"She was very disorderly with hospital security, and they asked her several times to leave the building," Cook said.
Ah yes, that "Only One" arrogance and those anger management challenges Dorothy is famous for:

During one loud session of the City Council, Tillman gained the attention of the entire floor when she produced a pistol from her handbag and brandished it about.[3] This led calls by some aldermen and Chicago citizens to call for a censure on Tillman's professional ethics, and possible mandatory gun safety training. Tillman also opened herself up to charges of hypocrisy, as she is a well-known advocate of gun control, yet she personally possessed a pistol. Since Chicago has strict gun control laws, it has been also seen as elitist that she can take advantage of gun ownership (under Chicago law, aldermen are allowed to carry firearms) while Chicago citizens could not.

Gee,I guess the highest taxes don't produce the most freedom after all.

Why is it that so many who can't--or don't have to--control themselves are so bent on controlling us?

"Tillman, best known for her work with Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and her colorful array of hats,"

I just find that humorous.... "What a colorful array of hats madam!"
