(mahatma, this screed is NOT directed at you. It is directed at those that want and need to keep us afraid)

this sounds like a load of bullshit…not saying this particular individual didn’t burgle someone, etc…just saying this sounds like the load of fear-mongering and hate-spreading that the media and right wing continuously spread to keep us afraid and from looking where our dangers actually lie. Light on data and/or statistics, heavy with dread.

Like manure on a field already so fertilized that it smells like a cesspit, it is unnecessary and damaging.
