Bozo the kKklown Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Quote Two explosive devices were found in mail sent to the offices of former President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the Secret Service said Wednesday. The devices were similar to one found on Monday at the home of the billionaire philanthropist George Soros, two law enforcement officials said. In a statement, the Secret Service said it “has intercepted two suspicious packages addressed to Secret Service protectees,” who were identified as Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Obama. The device addressed to Mrs. Clinton in Westchester County was found late on Tuesday by a Secret Service employee who screens mail for her office, the statement said. The package addressed to Mr. Obama was intercepted by Secret Service personnel in Washington, D.C. early on Wednesday.

No Excuses Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Last night Ted Cruz openly called for his opponent to be jailed. For what? Nothing at all but rabid tribalism. The right has openly declared liberals as enemies of the public. Incidents like this will become increasingly common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chew Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 An explosive device, similar in build to the ones sent to Obama and Clinton, was just found at the White House Also, live on the air, a fire alarm is going off at CNN.

And maybe it's because I've been more reflective as of late myself over stuff, but despite how much the deck is stacked, it's still the collective individual that can flip the script. Until they literally take my brown ass to the chopping block, I still think there is a chance to turn things around. I don't think things are that dire yet, much as it may feel like it.

bcl05 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 But the left is the angry violent mob. Sure. I'm looking forward to hearing Trump, or McConnell, or Ryan, or anyone vigorously denounce this. I hope at least one of them has enough integrity to do so...

Renegade7 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Is there any confirmation that any of them were working explosives? Think this is a little different then the expected violent response expected from the right, this looks like someone trying to send a message to both sides of aisle. My feelings about this i need to step away from before posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Yeah, remember earlier in the week we had discussion over that article about how to just be all cuddly and tolerant with opposing views? Yeah, they won't hurt you. We're past that. It's obvious. You ever look at the faces of the people in history who are caught up in this sort of thing? They always look so surprised and dumbfounded. Probably spent way too much time trying to be "civil" while the opposing viewpointers killed them. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freedom of Speech doesn't allow you to say what you want. You can't say you want to kill the president or divulge state secrets. Why should the press be protected from telling bold face lies? How can look at the direction of what right-wing propaganda machines like Fox is doing and saying we're better off jua letting them do that? There should be a line, right now there is none in this country. @Larry read this article and get back to me https://www.theguardian.com/media/2017/nov/06/fox-news-shows-broke-uk-tv-impartiality-rules-ofcom-finds Quote An episode of Tucker Carlson Tonight on 25 May, days after the Manchester terrorist attack, accused the British government and authorities of failing to counter terrorism, stop radicalisation and protect “thousands of underage girls” from rape and abuse. It included claims that authorities failed to act because of political correctness and because they valued how people saw them over the lives of children. They were accused of forcing an “official lie” on citizens that was “totalitarian” and “wicked”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseBlitz Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Yea, interesting morning at my office. Obama's post-presidency office is in the building. We also had an evacuation because he had been sent mail with a mysterious white powder last year. I hope they catch the terrorists. Edit: To be clear, today's package was sent to Obama's home, but my building is still on high alert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
