I was just informed, by a right wing troll, that there have been 67 unreported terror attacks

And they weren't just terror attacks - they were BLOODY terror attacks and I should hope that the next one doesn't take out my family. Well, that kind of goes without saying.

My response was to tell her that since the attacks were unreported, and yet she knew about them, she must have high standing in the homeland security agency. But also, did she perhaps 'spill the beans'?? I mean, if they weren't reported, maybe that was for a strategic reason. So far, she hasn't countered me.

Sometimes I wish they presented more of a challenge.

Right there in her own imagination. And, if it happened in a wingnut's imagination, you know it's true.

If some rando on the internet is aware of a terror attack, then it's obviously been reported.

there were near monthly attacks on abortion and family planning clinics around the country by religious kooks. Those barely made the news.

He said there were dozens of terrorist attacks that were never reported.

And I had the same reaction that you did. I asked him... if they were never reported then how the hell do you know about them??!

He seemed a little taken aback (the dumbass obviously doesn't think anything through)

So I pressed him hard.. how do you know about them? Did you get a top secret report? Do you work for the CIA???

Then he just started spewing word salad.

I told him that I actually DO work for the CIA.. and I have seen the report on you, it says you are an insane idiot. And I started laughing at him.

This really pissed him off and the more he talked I just laughed louder and louder.

Can't wait until I see him again, first thing I will ask him ... so, what does your secret report say this week? And before he can say anything I'll just laugh as loud as I can

Dumbass!
