[Vision2020] Craig's official statement

[Tom Ivie]

It would be my luck to get arrested for battery or assault for stomping on his hand. -Tom
  ps. why would you not want legal advice...period...if you had been in the US House and Senate for 16 yrs or so (and in leadership) and would be facing this?

  The article I read in the Washington Post said that he had tapped the 
foot of the person in the stall next him and reached under the 
partition. Naive to ways of the dance of restroom stall courtship and 
etiquette, I probably would have handed him some toilet paper blithely 
assuming that his dispenser was empty.

I haven't yet read the articles linked to earlier - so it's possible it 
was more than that. But given what the Post said, I can't really accuse 
him of much myself.
