Richard Mounts is the quality human being who kicked over tombstones a while back. 15 Meeting Street is really an asset to Newport, the town is a nicer place because it is here. At least the New Yorkers and Bostonians pay for the pleasure of acting like jerks when they come to Newport....

He's obviously a loser. Someone should kick him over. Anybody who would kick over tombstones doesn't have the IQ to know better.
