Doesn't matter what he is.. that's a rw spin on the President. He sure as hell wasn't "golfing" as

the ******* rw like to paint him. And, the rw ******** are the ones making such a ******* deal out of this.

FBI is investigating whether the explosion was an act of domestic terrorism

Sanders said no one was injured in the explosion and there was only minimal damage to the exterior of the building.

She added that a can full of gasoline had been placed near the device, but did not ignite in the explosion

snip//

Sanders said authorities have identified what she called a “potential person of interest” in the explosion.

She described the individual as a white male believed to be around 40 years old.

Sanders said he is balding and may be driving a “2000 or older model, dirty, white pick-up truck with paneling, a dark colored bed liner, open tailgate, and a missing or covered license plate.”

The NAACP chapter’s president, Harry Allen Jr., told The Gazette he would wait for the outcome of the investigation before labeling the explosion a hate crime.

I stand with Rep John Lewis~ It's sounds like Luck that the gas can didn't ignite and no one was hurt.

"Sanders added that the FBI’s Denver field office is working with the Colorado Springs Police Department at the scene. The Denver Post reported agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives were also on scene."

Anyone with information was urged to call (303) 435-7787

The #NAACPBombing hashtag is starting to trend now NOT because of media, but because of so many people pointing out relative media silence.

BEAUTIFUL FAMILY.The great mayor of Tallahassee stands for marriage equality. Today, History is made


Equality Florida with Andrew Gillum and R. Jai Gillum, Jackson and Caroline

Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum has a special message for all loving couples living in counties that have ended courthouse marriage ceremonies:

"At midnight tonight, most of the state of Florida will take a collective step towards complete equality by affording people the right to marry whomever they choose. I am disheartened, however, by the decision of several counties around Florida to discontinue the opportunity for people to have courthouse marriage ceremonies. In light of these unfortunate announcements, I would like to extend an invitation to the loving couples of Duval, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa, Baker, Clay, Pasco, Holmes, Washington, Jackson, Calhoun, Liberty, Franklin, and Wakulla Counties to hold their marriage ceremonies here in the Capital City. I hope that this issue reminds us that love is never wrong, and that equality must continue to be a part of the progress we work to drive in our community, our state, and in our country. As Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, ‘The time is always right to do what is right.'"

to the Democratic Mayor of Tallahassee, Florida inviting the "loving couples" to his city to be married! "Love Is Never Wrong"
