Besides the crazy lady who is clearly traumatized out of her senses, these people know what they're doing is wrong. Gary is one of the worst political actors I've ever seen.

Friendly reminder that he is just a fall guy for Carney. If he worked for Pierre, he would be giving press conferences about ending the bans and explaining why ending them would be a good idea. (He literally told Carney behind closed doors that the ban should be ended, and Carney refused, if you remember the leaked audio.)

I'm not saying you need to like him, but if you're openly mad at him without mentioning that it's actually Carney and the LPC who are responsible, you're literally falling for the lightning rod trap Carney set up.
