ReplyDeleteOf coarse their blaming us, don't want to upset the muzzies ............
ReplyDeleteToday, third Monday in April, is Patriot's Day, celebrating the Battles of Concord and Lexington, the start of the Revolutionary War.
ReplyDeleteReports are that a severely injured "suspect" is being held under guard at a local hospital.
They arrested a Saudi, I guess it wasn't some random white guy.
ReplyDeleteAnd....according to Drudge, He's a "Saudi National".
ReplyDeleteThe suspect may be a Suadi National now: but what will he be when the spinmeinsters have finished?
ReplyDeleteOh, come on--everybody knows the Saudis have NOTHING to do with Islamic terrorism.
ReplyDeleteRight?
So according to the article the feds are confirming 12 dead while everybody else is confirming only 2 dead.
ReplyDeleteYup, what a fine job our government agents are doing.
I would like to called for a ban on all pressure cookers at once, and especially those pressure cookers with black handles because they are assault cookers. We may even need to ban the dreaded electric skillet and crockpot, because as we all know right wing red neck racist conservatives use these all the time .McRhino Harry Reed and Dianne Firestone will be so F**king happy!
