The recent "terror" incident with the toner cartridges: do you think it was real and unique, or ....
.... real and part of an ongoing, but unreported, series of such events?

My point: Every election this shit seems to happen. It is an undeniable pattern.

So, if you buy that, then here are the possibilities: (1) It is sheer coincidence and each event that happened during the election run ups was real. (2) the others were bullshit, but this one was real. (3) Many more happen, but they only get reported when there is some political gain for someone. (4) WE'RE DOOMED. FLEE FOR YOUR LIVES!

I am with option (3), myself. How about you?

2. There have been similar stories every two or three months.
There's no need to get conspiratorial about this one any more than the last half dozen similar stories that didn't happen close to the election.

4. I think #3 is correct. Politicians only bring them up if it gives political advantage.

5. We could stop the horror of be afraid of printers if we
only bought those made in America. And if we stopped buying other crap made overseas.
