What incident is being referred to and what is the opinion on the consequences of the actions taken?
The idiot is 36 years old. He went on a property-damage spree that affected at least 18 of his mother's constituents. She issued a public apology for his actions less than 24 hours after his crimes. He "trashed on" her all by himself. That's why this is news. It comes with being a public figure. Always has.
Yes, by all means, grow up.
