At the time he lived in a similar liberal enclave, across the river in S Mpls.
It seems one night the Coleman's minivan was stolen, and poor nickolas was inconvenienced by being late for something important.
You could hear the spittle hitting the microphone as he ranted about what a heinous crime it was to steal his vehicle. As I recall capital punishment was advocated; and I believe he was serious.
As they say, a conservative is a liberal who got their minivan stolen.

The problem with stereotyping any single person is you run the risk of alienating someone who could otherwise be a powerful ally.
Such is the problem with certain people on "our side".
