FBI involved after bomb threat at Myrtle Beach restaurant hosting drag brunch
WRAL News ^ | 6 December 2022 | WMBF staff

WMBF reports the FBI is investigating a bomb threat called into a Myrtle Beach restaurant hosting a drag queen brunch.

The Myrtle Beach Police Department said officers responded to the Mr. Fish location on the 6400 block of North Kings Highway on Sunday after reports of the threat.

“Right now a lot of people are angry,” said a performer, who did not want to be identified and was at the event. “As much as I want to be strong about it and not let hate win, it kind of wants me to rethink a little bit. I’ve been doing this for over 30 years. A lot of raw emotions right now.”

After evacuating the restaurant to search for explosives or any other threats, nothing was found. According to the founder of Grand Strand Pride, Terry Livingston, said the community is still in shock over what happened because they had a similar incident five years ago.

“Is just really sad for me and breaks my heart that people are targeting businesses in the area,” said Livingston.

The MBPD said an investigation is now underway to find the source of the hoax, with the FBI now involved.

As the crow flies, Myrtle Beach is about 140 miles from the Moore County electrical substation sabotage. No idea whether the events are related.

If the Feebs are involved, likely not, unless it’s to place the blame on the alleged sabotage on some alleged homophobes.

That’s a heck of a coincidence.

Boy. The left sure was quick to put 2 and 2 together on this, weren’t they?

Something smells here.

Bomb threats are so stupid. It’s so 1960’s. I am thinking this is a “Jesse Smollett” type of thing. Honestly

Another fabricated false flag operation targeting innocent “right wingers” who will be framed.

Meanwhile, foreign terrorists continue to roll across our southern border like a swarm of killer bees and nobody is doing anything about it.

At one time, and not long ago, it was a false-flag device designed to garner sympathy for the victim-class.

Now, it is a false-flag designed to impugn everyday folks (who have run out of faux-sympathy).

True, that.

What do the Jussie Smollet, Reichstag Fire, and Gulf of Tonkin incidents have in common?

Last time we were in Myrtle Beach...early October...I noticed a gay bar on Kings Hwy (South, I think). Flat out advertised as such on the marquee out front.

How does anyone get away with a phone-in bomb threat today? It's not like there are anonymous pay phones anymore.

There are many anti- LGBTQ terrorism/threats that were hoaxes (I can’t recall a real one, to be honest) and I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that one of the drag queens had someone call it in to get sympathy or to advertise that the event is happening.

Jussie Smollet, Bubba the race car driver,...

With the power of America’s KGB and the full force of Fed.gov law behind it - you WILL ALL be accepting this behavior as normal.

Turns out this wasn't a phone-in threat.
In the email to News13, the sender said: “We have placed several bombs in the
Mr Fish Restaurant, 6401 N Kings Hwy. We are not terrorists hurt children
which is why you have this warning to evacuate.”

The email also named six people and threatened to kill them. News13 is not
identifying those people.

The email also made other threats and accusations.
