"For the last two weeks, anti-trans terrorists shut down a WI town--including all schools--with bomb threats, demanding the school district close a Title IX investigation into anti-trans harassment by today. Last night, the school closed the investigation."

This is ugly but not unexpected. There's a lot the school isn't saying, but it sounds like they gave everyone a stern talking to and that's it.

Thank goddess the FBI are investigating the terrorists issuing bomb threats across the community.

1. Unreal. Just terrible behavior for Americans.

Dangerous for everyone.

2. These terrorists need to be found, arrested, and have the book thrown at them

And I hope everyone now is beginning to see the truth. These people are terrorists. Sane, rational human beings do not use bomb threats to stifle investigations or get what they want.

I think back 70 years ago, to 2001 and 2002, when all we heard was that we needed to bomb Afghanistan and Iraq into parking lots because "GET THE TERRORISTS BEFORE THEY GET US!" I said then "Why? Why bother? They're already here. They're called 'Republicans'." Sure enough, these rat bastards are now holding the rest of the nation hostage with guns and bombs, threatening or attacking, and acting no different than al-Qaeda or ISIS or any other terrorist group. The War on Terror (TWOT, as Jello Biafra called it) hasn't made me feel any safer at all. Why? Because American-born terrorists, known as Q-Annoy and the "Proud Incels" and "Stop the Squeal" and the "Republican Party", are doing an amazing job terrorizing us in our own country.

Whatever happened to "We don't negotiate with terrorists"? Well, I guess that disappears when the party of Raygun have become the terrorists.

Meanwhile.. I'm thinking you're right. "Stern talking to"'s for everyone involved... And I'm guessing the victim of the harassment and discrimination got the sternest talking to. "Quit being a victim/whiner/pussy/*insert slur here*!" You know, like how schools wanted to handle the relentless abuse and bullying I endured in the 80's and early 90's.

I hate Wisconsin Nazis.

3. Yes to all of this.

The bullies got quiet after Nixon, but then they took charge of the GOP under Reagan and it's just snowballed through to where we are today.

4. Yes it has sadly

No doubt they started crawling out of the woodwork and getting bolder after Raygun won in 1980... And just seems to have gotten worse each year, with certain events having major "contributions" to this nightmare: Limbaugh, Fux Noise, Obama winning (not Obama's fault, but the fault of small-minded bigots who were pissed at seeing a Black president) and of course Drumpf.

How does it stop? When does the nightmare end? I wish I knew... I just know things seem to be uglier and uglier all the time.
