CocoaPuff is wrong.

Otherwise, the hotels are not targeted. Further, a residential area was hit.

Do try to apply some small modicum of critical thinking to the random twits you share with us, would you please, Kiiid?

This will be of interest to most of us, with the usual exceptions of Ward, Kiiid, and the fool from downunder.

It shows not only the Democrats vs. Republicans breakdown on climate change beliefs, but a breakdown by rough age category within the GOP.

No Herman Cain for the Fed.

This is a good thing.

And Stephen Moore is working on digging himself a deeper hole.

Trump says that nobody disobeys his orders, despite what the Mueller Report says.

Glad we have that settled.

Cain has nine nine nine problems, but the Fed ain’t one.

Moore is already as deep a “hole” as anyone has ever seen, including bovine proctologists. All that rooting around is self pleasure rather than further excavation.

Sri Lanka is 10% Muslim

What will the % be 10 years from now?

Muslim terrorists from a splinter hard line Islamic group are being blamed for the suicide bombings.
Sri Lankan govt was warned 10 days before the bombings by international intelligence agencies, but underestimated the threat...reportedly.
Sri Lankan govt suspects the group had outside, international help, reportedly.

Christians worldwide are under attack. The fightback must start now. Christians must take action, legally of course.
They should take over govts worldwide, at elections...as many as they can as fast as they can.
They should secure all their churches with walls, fences, armed-to-the-teeth security, and bomb-detection capability [as should also happen in all US schools].
There should be cleared spaces around the churches...with only 'members' of the churches allowed entry to the areas then the churches, electronic cards, facial recognition, fingerprinting etc.
No walk-ups allowed, not sorry.

mrs arafura was fingerprinted at customs when she first landed in USA recently.

Mulvaney was supposed to release that statement, but he refused.

Meanwhile, the logical result of the religious right's definition of tolerance, on a symbolic level:

No-go zones around Christian churches for vehicles that don't belong to members [members must be thoroughly identified and background checked before being accepted as members, no fake Christians allowed.]

A van parked near a Sri Lankan church that was bombed on Easter Sunday has exploded, but no injuries have been reported.

http://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/why-has-australia-fallen-out-of-love-with-immigration/ar-BBWbEwW?li=AAgfYrC&OCID=AVRES000

NYT;

Now, amid a global backlash against immigration that has upended politics in the United States, Britain and much of Europe, even Australia is reversing course, turning away from a policy of welcoming skilled foreigners that helped fuel decades of economic growth — and transformed a nation once closed to non-white immigrants into a multicultural society.

Yes, ...crowded cities, congested commutes, costlier housing.
Time to do something about it, to protect quality of life.
Trump knows all.
