While the protests remained largely peaceful, there were several violent outbursts, including in Salt Lake City, where a gunman opened fire and left one person in “life-threatening condition.”

Happy #NoKings day to those who celebrate. Hope your protests were peaceful and uneventful. Alas, here in #Culpeper, not an hour away from #Charlottesville, some yahoo decided to drive his SUV recklessly into the crowd dispersing after the protest ended. No injuries reported. Thanks to the Culpeper PD for responding.

#OTD Nicholas #Culpeper, English #Botanist, #Herbalist, #Physician, & #Astrologer, died.

A radical thinker, his Complete #Herbal revealed medicinal secrets to the masses & was still used in #JaneAusten's time - a century later. He didn't charge the poor & examined many of his patients for free.

Nicholas used #Melancholy #Thistle (Cirsium heterophyllum) for depression:

"[Added to] #Wine, it expels superfluous melancholy out of the body, & makes a man as #Merry as a cricket."
