I&#8217;m not sure what a data lead is but I imagine it to be somewhere between a mailing list manager and someone who clips articles from a newspaper.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenvilleonline.com\/story\/opinion\/contributors\/2015\/09\/18\/columnist-smart-reduce-gun-violence\/72405682\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ms. Fontaine had an op-ed in the Greenville News<\/a> regarding a training session she attended in Minneapolis, Minnesota this summer. She started the column by saying:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tr_bq\"><p>\n<i>This summer, I took training in Minneapolis for Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, <b>a nonpartisan organization that supports the Second Amendment<\/b>. It was created after Sandy Hook to advocate common-sense gun reforms that are straightforward&#8230;<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Either the training Ms. Fontaine took in Minnesota was on how to be a commedienne or she just told a whopper. The Demanding Moms for Illegal Mayors are neither non-partisan nor pro-Second Amendment.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, those who bothered to read this screed long enough to comment thought she was full of it as well. There was not one comment supportive of her position.<\/p>\n<p>A quick Google search reveals that Ms. Fontaine is a former educator <a href=\"http:\/\/greenvillejournal.com\/~greenvjo\/m\/index.php?page=39&amp;item=2051\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">who objected to constitutional carry<\/a> in South Carolina when it was proposed in 2013. She also served as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.furman.edu\/sites\/OLLI\/newsfromOLLI\/Documents\/GMmar14revisedreduced.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a Peace Corps volunteer<\/a> in Peru in the late 1960s. I&#8217;m sure Ms. Fontaine, bless her heart, is a nice person and means well but her advocacy is misguided and dangerous.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jean Fontaine is the &#8220;data lead for South Carolina Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America.&#8221; She lives&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[529],"class_list":["post-1220","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-moms-demand-action"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1220","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1220"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1220\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10463,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1220\/revisions\/10463"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1220"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1220"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1220"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
