But we’re not a racist country. We got over that. Or so the Supreme Court says . . .

I’m sure the bomb threat was just more legitimate political discourse…

We have a low-grade race war/genocide underway in our fair land. It’s under the media radar for how much longer?

Always have.

The media wants it under the radar…

Someone is about to find out the truth about ā€œburnerā€ phones.

Had to read half way thru the story before I found a reference to D.C.

That radar set was dismissed, ignored, and then ordered to be turned off.

And we definitely do not have a right-wing domestic terrorism problem in this country. Just ask them.

And the only reason they got that was because they were waiting around to be picked up and decided to keep scanning. Their shift was over. There wasn’t another shift.

I’m withdrawing what I said here about the word ā€œgentlemanā€. I misread the piece.

I think you may have missed the context. This is a title. A (male) Vice President’s wife is generally, if somewhat archaically, referred to as the Second Lady. But in this case, Vice President Harris’s husband is the Second Gentleman.

Generally agree, but ā€œwarā€ requires two sides – and we don’t have that.

We have a low-grade genocide, perpetrated by an increasingly-overt Pink Brigade of proto-Nazis.

The other ā€œsideā€ doesn’t exist; it just comprises the victims.

Oh jeez, yes. I mis-read it, thought they were describing some suspect. I will correct.

I actually parsed it that way myself at first glance, so it didn’t take a lot of analysis to spot the error. :slight_smile:

(I learn by my mistakes; I will certainly learn a great deal today.)

Well, it will be very interesting to hear what the outcome of the investigation into this little event is. We can logically assume it is more of the rightwing crap, but maybe not.

Yup. See, there’s actually no real bomb so this is just a GQP peaceful protest. Also, these bomb threats are just jokes. It’s the Libs who don’t know what’s funny.
