What caught your attention in the world today?

Published

I came across this is little story today, it's not breaking news.  I suspect that a member of the housekeeping staff knows something about the bomb threat that required the sweep for weapons.

According to police in Secaucus, the bomb threat — which later was determined to be bogus — was called in to Hudson Regional Hospital on July 18. During a search, bomb detection dogs led investigators to an unlocked office closet containing dozens of firearms.

Among the weapons were 11 handguns and 27 rifles or shotguns, according to police. The closet also contained a .45 caliber semi-automatic rifle with a high-capacity magazine that was determined to be an assault rifle, and a 14-round high-capacity handgun magazine.

The arrested the guy the next day. 

What the heck do you think this guy was doing? It sounds very ominous that he was keeping those weapons there.

Twitter has suspended the Twitter account, but now, thanks to Fox News, the message continues to spread.

What Twitter account? 

 

The one from the Alt Left calling for a "night of rage" including murdering police officers?

I read your linked article. I looked to see the name of this "alt left" group. The only thing I saw named was a Twitter account name. Do you not read your own citations? Or maybe you are a member of this group and can share some inside info about who they are? Could be DJT's mythical 300 pound blogger.

Fox reporting on the story isn't ensuring the message "continues to spread".  Law abiding citizens, police officers, and Caucasians in the area need to be on high alert.  There was already an elderly Caucasian woman stabbed to death in her gated community.  I suggest anyone in the Atlanta area to carry a firearm.

Intolerant heterophobic alphabet mafia and their supporters targeting a hockey player for refusing to wear a LGBTQP+ whatever pride jersey who cited his religious beliefs.

Is this inclusivity?  Or intolerance.  Why does this group force their warped and dangeorus lifestyle on anyone and try to destroy their lives if they don't bow down and parade around their sick rhetoric.  

Why are players being forced to parade around flags from a group responsible for the AIDS epidemic and more recently the monkey pox spread?  The group fighting to allow children to attend shows run by sexual predator men dressed as women?  

Reminds me of the show Daria.  Next on sick sad world

typical of the left.  Fascist tactics to limit free speech.   When you look at her district and the ones in Chicago and other blue cities, the people could move to Haiti and there standard of living woukd improve.

Imagine what kind of thinking or sympathies might be upset by the language of this bill...

Who doesn't want to decrease the right wing racist hate crimes that have been on the rise?  I suspect that probably racists aren't interested in that. It seems that you are also upset. That seems fitting. I won't ask why you are upset as I believe you've made yourself much clearer than you know. 

 Who conflates free speech with hate speech and then projects "fascism" onto what they consider leftist ideology? Right wing extremists who don't understand the terminology maybe? When you can articulate why you believe that fascism has any relationship to left wing extremism we can talk.  Until then, you've shown me/ the members in the thread that either you don't read any of the many credible links provided to you, or you are completely unfazed by facts, data or evidence. That makes engaging with you boring and predictable. 

Who believes that racist hate speech is a matter of freedom of speech?  Is it most conservatives or just the extremist conservatives who visit internet sites and represent themselves as average Republicans? 

We were cautioned earlier to comment as though we were addressing a room full of professionals.  I don't believe that all of the members commenting are professionals and since this site does not verify licensure it is not reasonable to assume.  This is the Trump era of conmen, grifters and charlatans.

Controlling speech is nothing more than fascism,  which the left celebrates when it goes against conservatives.  look at California's bill to punish doctors for COVID misinformation.  Left wing fascism rearing its head as usual.
