ROSWELL, Ga. - Authorities were called to the neighborhood where Karen Handel lives in Roswell for the report of a suspicious package Thursday afternoon.

Police say the FBI has joined the investigation and at least five homes in the neighborhood have received an envelope with a "white powdery substance" in it.

Hopefully the realization that the Democrats are just too unstable and weird to run the country is becoming apparent to the American people.

We have to pray that it is.

Yeah, coexist with people who would run us down with our backs turned, if they could. In their Prius with the Coexist and Bernie/Hillary stickers.

This explains why...

Wow! They had a kid on WSB say that there were more emergency vehicles than he had ever seen, and he is from New York!

White powder could be anything.

The power sent to the TV station was baking soda but it was meant to be a threat and cause terror.

The Rat terrorists are behind the times. Fox has already been overtaken by the Left and is now one of their allies.

That is true but the so called warning today was in retaliation for FOX 5 News broadcasting the news of earlier hate mail to Karen Handel's subdivision in the past couple of weeks.

"The only reason why yesterday wasn’t a total bloodbath was because the shooter had bad aim and there was security there, otherwise you would have had 20 dead GOP members of Congress."

And what is really pathetic is that "republicans" are making claims that "both sides" are to blame for the poisonous rhetoric in America.

WHAT will it take wake these GOP snakes to wake up?

FFS, did they not SEE what a typical democrat voter actually did?

Will it take ANOTHER assassination attempt to clue them into just how violent the left is?

It is NOT "both sides'.

It is 100% coming from the average democrat.

What will the left do next?

Guaranteed it will be nothing that will make America think they are interested in getting elected.

Guess what. They aren't.

only wish Mr. Nixon had been smart enough to hire professionals. We know that there was collusion between democrats and members of the Supreme Soviet. College students were enamored with reading and speaking from “The Little Red Book.” Our enemy has long been identified in this war.


And now those Marxist college students are in positions of power in Academia, Hollywood, CEOs of major companies, Judges
.... And we wonder why they are getting away with this violence? They hold a LOT of power right now. We need to get them OUT of Academia and OUT of judge postions!

What is this connected to? Terrorists? Pranksters? White powder could be anything.

Would you run your finger across it and taste it? If not, why not?

Answer that question honestly and you've answered why this incident is a serious problem and something a step above "pranksters".

OK. my problem was that I forgot who Karen Handel is. I was too lazy to read the entire article before I posted. If I had written the article, I would have explained that near the top. However, the intended readership is local folks who probably don’t need to be reminded who she is.

For that reason I don't think we will get them out until the tension snaps. The socialists are attempting to instigate it and the massive rebound and awesome reckoning will be overwhelming. Sane individuals don't want to live like Snake Plissken.

The Democrats would have no problem trying to
rename the country to something like that. I've been expecting it.

I didn’t know who she was either, but I can tell you that anyone putting white powder in envelopes are not pulling a “prank”.
