EXCLUSIVE: Interview with a Bowling Green Massacre Survivor

[guillaumeb]

This really brings home the sheer.................something that we all associate with the events that could easily have happened on that horrible day.

Thanks Obama!!

[KittyWampus]

1. well done.

[guillaumeb]

4. I could not stop crying.

Well, actually I was laughing and crying, but still.

Please share this with your friends. I emailed the link to a few already.

[KittyWampus]

7. I will. Stuff like this reaches people in a way logic/rational arguments does not.

Humor, music, art.

They speak to a different part of our brain.

[guillaumeb]

12. True. And with all of the posts here concerning the real fear

of what Trump might do, we really need some humor to break the tension.

[Lucinda]

2. LOL

[guillaumeb]

5. We must never forget.

Especially never forget what did not actually happen.

[laserhaas]

43. Awh man...can't we give Kellyanne a break

He says, as the mob of pitch fork & axe holders increase

[guillaumeb]

57. I will bring a torch. eom

[csziggy]

111. If she never shows up on TV again lying her way through an interview

I will happily give her a break!

[laserhaas]

121. Oh boy..

[MindPilot]

3. Brilliant!!

[guillaumeb]

6. I loved it too.

I recommend sharing it with your friends and family.

[Guilded Lilly]

8. Oh! Ha! (But you didn't hear me laugh)

[guillaumeb]

13. I heard the faint echoes.

Make sure that you share this with friends.

[Guilded Lilly]

28. They already didn't laugh at nothing, too! 😎

[grantcart]

9. They got the high production value with the train!!!

[guillaumeb]

14. The movie version will have much better production. eom

[BlancheSplanchnik]

50. What are you saying? The train's a problem? Well, YOU just don't UNDERSTAND!

WE know!!!11!!1 We REALLY resent your JUDGEMINTS!!1! by YOU PEOPLE, who don't even KNOW AMYTHINF!!!!111:madd:
You have NO IDEA what that train means to us, who DO KNOW! You're just clueless, but fine I see I have to explain to you DUmmies----THAT TRAIN, that Normal Train----is a VERRRRY IMMMPORTANT PLOT DEVICE!!!!!

Why can't you basTARDS UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT MEANS TO US!????!!????!!11!eleven!!!??? And y'all claim to be so caring!!!!!!!!

We, the PROUD!! The FREE!!! WE remember!!

It was NORMAL!!!!!

[lambchopp59]

98. Now, now Blanche. If you're going to imitate the RWNJ's you must learn to misspell

at least half a dozen of the two syllable words in that extensive a rant.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

108. I tried.

It's not as easy as you'd think!

[Cirque du So-What]

10. The BGM was real, dammitoll anyway!

I was there. We were in the midst of a drought lasting - at minimum - three weeks. When the primo ganja arrived unexpectedly, it dispersed over the WKU campus like a fog. When it was over, most of the student body (and mind) was completely wiped out.

[guillaumeb]

15. More proof, as if true Americans really needed it,

that Obama hates America.

[Cirque du So-What]

17. Obama had nuttin to do with it

This was 1972, after all, so no 10-year-old was responsible...or WAS he?

[guillaumeb]

19. Now you are ready for a position on right wing alternative news.

We cannot be distracted by facts and reality.

[Cirque du So-What]

21. That's right

Never let go of a good CT. Hand on like a terrier with a milk-bone.

[still_one]

11. Excellent. My hats off to the performer

[guillaumeb]

16. Performer?

You mean it was not real?

[still_one]

23. My mistake, it is absolutely real

[Cha]

89. Send this to cnn, asap!

[guillaumeb]

90. Feel free, with my blessing.

I am leaving for our social justice movie night. Thirteenth, by Ava deVernay.

[Cha]

92. Have a great time.. and Mahalo!

[underpants]

107. Jentotheden

She apparently does regular YouTube videos.

[StarryNite]

18. Such a brave woman to speak out about nothing.

This needs to be shared far and wide for the sake of the victims that never were injured and killed in a tragic event that never happened.

[guillaumeb]

20. Absolutely.

The fact that President Obama ignored what could have happened is evidence that everything the GOP says could easily have been true.

[StarryNite]

22. Question

You seem very knowledgeable, do you know if they ever captured the perpetrators that never were? It's scary because if they haven't yet been caught they could still be out there planning more attacks that never happened.

[guillaumeb]

29. And that is why a new position will be soon created to deal

with these fictional, but possible, threats.

As Donald Rumsfeld referred to, these are known unknowns.

[StarryNite]

34. LOL!

[TxDemChem]

24. That was great

Maybe Trump and his handlers can be mocked out of lying. It seemed to really bother Kellyanne that people are trashing her for this.

[guillaumeb]

58. Trump has been lying for 70 years.

He has no shame, and neither does CONway.

[TxDemChem]

94. You're probably right

It's weird to see people who don't feel shame

[MountCleaners]

25. It was too disturbing

I had to turn it off.

[BumRushDaShow]

26. Wow. There's absolutely nothing like this anywhere.

Nothing. The interview was able to capture nothing in all its tragic nothingness like nothing has ever done before!

[guillaumeb]

59. I can add nothing to your comment. eom

[hurple]

27. There's a T-Shirt already too!

https://www.zazzle.com/bowling_green_massacre_survivor_t_shirt-235051501167087607

This is a great meme. It does hit people when you can throw such an OBVIOUS lie at them.

[wildeyed]

36. Bumper sticker.

I require a bumper sticker. #AlwaysForget Bowling Green Massacre with a candle graphic Hope someone does thos soon.

[NastyRiffraff]

38. There's lots on Amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_17?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=bowling+green+massacre&sprefix=bowling+green+mas%2Caps%2C121&crid=KAN9DYQRIJWX

The Dump administration IS good for the economy after all! Here's a whole cottage industry starting up over one lie! the humor and opportunities for mocking are bonuses.

[mobeau69]

54. Best Tee Shirt: I Died at The Bowling Green Massacre and

All I Got Was a Lousy President

[shenmue]

55. Haaaaaaa

[guillaumeb]

60. Thanks for the link.

You might want to post your comment and the link as a separate post.

[Guilded Lilly]

30. The Great Nothingness is not alive and not well in Bowling Green.

[guillaumeb]

61. Not sorry to hear that.

[Tree-Hugger]

31. What's wrong with you?

Why wouldn't you post a Trigger Warning first?

[guillaumeb]

62. Nothing is wrong with me.

Nothing being the theme of this post.

[wildeyed]

32. #NeverRemeber

This one is a gift that keeps giving! In other news, has anyone seen Kellyanne in public since this debacle? Or is she 'stepping back to spend more time with her family'? Or mybe they are holding her in a secure location with Melania.

[guillaumeb]

63. Nice thoughts. But CONway has no shame.

[lillypaddle]

33. OMG, that is heartbreaking

and hysterical. But mostly heartbreaking.

[NCjack]

35. A national day of mourning is necessary to purge the people's memories

of this horrible act of terrorism. Why isn't FBI Director Comey investigating?

[guillaumeb]

64. The Benghazi investigation comes first.

[Percy Cholmondeley]

37. I'm a better man since viewing this interview

It's inspired me to confirm my resolve. Deeply moving. We are all truly Bowling Green now. Never again. Never the first time, either.

[krispos42]

39. I'll never remember where I was the day of the Bowling Green Massacre

And <sniff> neither will you!

[yankeepants]

40. This could have not been any one of us! There by the grace of gawd don't I.

[guillaumeb]

65. Well stated.

[malaise]

41. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah hahahahahhahhaha

ay too good

[guillaumeb]

66. Can you laugh at this tragedy?

Do you not remember, as if it were yesterday, how this could have happened?

And Obama did nothing about what did not happen.

[malaise]

68. That Obama

he makes things happen even when they don't happen - powerful man

[guillaumeb]

71. Voodoo?

Could be.

[malaise]

72. Hehehehehhehe

Nah - must be some other guzzum

[guillaumeb]

75. What is guzzum? eom

[malaise]

76. Let's say voodoo is merely one branch

of global guzzum - the total and complete package of superstitious beliefs.

[guillaumeb]

78. Thank you. eom

[underpants]

105. They got me with Sarah McLaughlin

I literally laughed out loud. PERFECT.

[malaise]

106. Indeed

Seriously hilarious

[laserhaas]

42. Priceless

[PatSeg]

44. That was a three Kleenex experience!

So raw and real.

[guillaumeb]

67. So raw and surreal.

Surreal is even better than real.

[oldtime dfl_er]

45. tshirt here

[mobeau69]

46. Ken Burns "The Bowling Green Massacre: A Documentary About Nothing"

Thanks, Jerry.

[malaise]

79. That's very good

[TexasBushwhacker]

47. I thought Clint Eastwood would do the interview

[lastlib]

52. No--The Chair doesn't recognize Clint Eastwood.

[guillaumeb]

69. I could have remembered that interview with one of the survivors.

[Vinca]

48. So I guess it was kind of a Seinfeld massacre.

[alfredo]

49. Can one get PTSD from nothing?

[guillaumeb]

70. Yes. With Trump as President PTSD means

Post Truth Stress Disorder

[alfredo]

93. Ha!

[TheDebbieDee]

51. Marking so I can enjoy later...

[manicraven]

53. Oh, wow, it really makes one stop and think... Could this happena again? Yikes!

[guillaumeb]

73. How do we know it did not already nearly happen again?

How do we know that Obama and Hillary did not hide what could have happened again?

Perhaps a House investigation is warranted?

[Cha]

109. Why didn't the press report on it? Do you think

they were covering up for the Obama Admin?

Is that what the con way was trying to tell us?!

"Bowling Green Massacre" She really wanted to stimulate the fans lust for scandal. Can you imagine how many of her groupies googled that after Hardball with tweety?

[guillaumeb]

110. Of course the "liberal media" (that is in fact owned by the 1%)

covered up for President Obama. Poor Kellyanne CONway. She is simply trying to keep the American people informed of the reality she would prefer to promote.

[Cha]

114. From the wikipedia page on it..

Statements by Conway

I bet, there was very little coverage?—?I bet it's brand new information to people that President Obama had a six-month ban on the Iraqi refugee program after two Iraqis came here to this country, were radicalized?—?and they were the masterminds behind the Bowling Green massacre. I mean, most people don't know that because it didn't get covered.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowling_Green_massacre

It's Covered Now, Twit!

[guillaumeb]

115. An exellent article.

If one is a fan of reality based fact rather than Trump paid spin.

[Cha]

116. The con way blames "the haters" IOW, the Fact Checkers.

[byronius]

56. Brilliant requiem.

[guillaumeb]

74. Truth died in 2017. Few mourned its passing.

[kstewart33]

77. Hilarious.

So well done. Thanks for posting!

[guillaumeb]

80. Thank you. And on a side note:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10028596372

I feel that we must use humor, satire, mockery to fight those with thin skins and no shame.

[uppityperson]

81. k&r

[guillaumeb]

82. Thank you. I emailed the clip to many people today. eom

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

83. So funny. "Oh, that's the normal train."

In other words, not the Trump Train. Nothin' normal 'bout the Trump Train.

[guillaumeb]

84. Normal and Trump seem to be opposites.

He is so sad. A man who hates the entire world.

[Cha]

85. OMG! that is Brilliant!!!

Thank you for nothing, guillaumeb!

[guillaumeb]

86. Nothing to merit your thanks, Cha.

It was funny. One hopes that Trump sees it at some point and asks CONway about it.

[Cha]

91. lol.. trump's too busy insult tweeting @ our allies, media, and

real Americans.

he might wonder in his furious frenzy why cnn turned her down for the Sunday shows, though. And, she'll feed him some bullshit about "the media's ongoing war with us "

[guillaumeb]

100. Three word answer for Trump and company:

Liberal media bias.

[liberal N proud]

87. Too Funny

[guillaumeb]

88. Agreed. Funny, and perhaps a taste of what is to come? eom

[Thinkingabout]

95. This was believeable on FOX where it was tested.

I am waiting for the Bowling Green investigations to begin, I am sure Issa can get the answers.

[guillaumeb]

102. One hopes that Trey Gowdy would take a lead role.

It was so interesting to watch Clinton demolish him in the hearings.

[stonecutter357]

96. .

[Zambero]

97. I have no words

Nothing could ever describe the horror of what never went down!

[guillaumeb]

103. Your no words appropriately echo the non-action of that day. eom

[LaydeeBug]

99. Oh, me and Jenattheden would be *friends* nt

[JHan]

101. we will never fiveget this tragedy.

[guillaumeb]

104. NO one could.

While Trump is building his beautiful wall, perhaps some Mexican masons from the Trump wall building company can use some of the extra material from the wall to construct a suitable monument to this near-reality horror.

[brooklynite]

112. This is as believable as the claims of thousands of Lithuanians cheering from the Staten Isl Ferry

We need to treat this issue with the dignity it deserves...

[guillaumeb]

113. The Lithuanians that cheered as the towers fell?

And Sauron died in the last battle of Middle Earth?

That was contained in the hidden Tolkien book about those times but I remember it as if I had read it.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

117. It's... it's...

Sorry. No words.

Nothing.

[guillaumeb]

118. It could have been well said.

Whatever you might have said.

[smirkymonkey]

119. My heart goes out to her family and loved ones!

[guillaumeb]

120. We all share in your sorrow for the tragedy that easily could

have happened.

Thanks Obama, for not preventing what could have happened.
