    Red Mike Message: Minnesota, Rights, and Escalation

About Red Mike Messages

From the publisher's feed

Red Mike Messages are Leadership and life lessons I've picked up from 25 years as a public servant, 16 years as a youth sports coach and Scouting volunteer, and 10 years as a mediocre athlete with far more heart than actual physical ability.
