Oh, and US officials now believe an explosion brought down the aircraft in Russia with Prigozhin reportedly aboard. What caused the explosion...we probably won't know, there's plenty of ways to do it. And Russia isn't going to exactly go out of its way to determine the cause. The known humanitarian, Mr. V.

Lord Liaden Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 (edited) If people like this absolutely have to shoot someone, could we at least figure out how to get them to shoot each other? 😞 (Not advocating it, in case anyone was wondering.)

Cygnia Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 Bomb threats hit California library after Moms for Liberty group kicked out: report Quote A public library in California has been hit with a series of bomb threats after it kicked out a group of supporters of the right-wing Moms for Liberty that was meeting there, reported the Sacramento Bee. The Mary L. Stephens Davis Library in Davis was evacuated Monday morning after receiving a threat filled with anti-LGBTQ slurs, and students at a nearby high school and elementary school sheltered in place after the bomb threat, reported the Sacramento Bee.

DShomshak Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 Disgusted, but not surprised at all. But then, public libraries are evil. All that information made available to impressionable young people, with no concern for making them loyal, righteous, and obedient to their parents and their parents' God? EVIL.

What does that tell the students, how does it impact their outlook on society? It supports the notion of fear, to me...and that's advancing the Republican agenda of a corporate-police state.
