LOL — In the group picture it looks like Hillary’s Head was removed and reattached at an incorrect angle.

Exactly. Rather the alarm was accidental or not the correction delay was not.

Someone on another thread said the recent spacex launch of the secret military Zuma satellite is involved too.

Intercept test?

None of this makes any sense.

One possible theory is that the person at the controls had a psychotic break, freaked out and pushed the button (twice).

What makes the least sense is the LONG time it took to send out the cancellation notice.

My first thought was it was a(n) SJW who wanted to trigger a reciprocal nuclear attack—thus proving the belief that DJT would start a nuclear war.

>>Put NOTHING past these people.

They are ideologically insane, but aren’t stupid.

‘He who exercises no forethought but makes light of his opponents is sure to be captured by them.’ Sun Tzu

Our greatest weakness is that Conservatives think that Progs are stupid. Their greatest tool is their mastery of public opinion which they have honed for more than a century. When they do something that appears stupid, like this alert, ask yourself how you would use it to mold public opinion and that’s where you’ll find their motive.

They can only throw your unconscious carcass in a van like a side of beef so many times before you land badly and mess up those cervical vertebrae.

Why did it take so long?

Here’s a guess. What if they weren’t allowed to have cell phones at the installation where the alarm was triggered. Would they get any indication of what they’d done until someone called on a land-line or showed up in person?

The right’s favorite liberal, Tulsi Gabbard, is now showing her true colors....essentially blaming Trump for not having successfully dealt with Kim.

Even something as simple as a computer game, if you want to delete a character the game will ask you twice then make you type in “delete” or something like that. But a state government’s early warning system of nuclear attack can be triggered simply by some bozo pushing the wrong button? Not likely.

Never attribute to conspiracy something that can be more easily explained by incompetence.

You're talking about left-wing extremists. In that case:

Never attribute to stupidity that which can be explained by malice.

I'm perfectly happy with you deliberately misunderestimating the depths of their perfidy.

One of us has to sleep well at night.

If thinking they aren't really that evil or that stupid gives you comfort, more power to you!

“When they do something that appears stupid, like this alert, ask yourself how you would use it to mold public opinion and that’s where you’ll find their motive.”

While I am not sure whether the purpose was to mold public opinion or step 1 in a more complex plan, I am sure they are not stupid but evil and everything they do and say is to advance government power.

>>If thinking they aren’t really that evil or that stupid gives you comfort, more power to you!

Your level of condescension demonstrates that you don’t really put much thought into things, so I’ll leave you with this:

They ARE that evil. But they are NOT that stupid. Progressivism (Existentialism, Humanism, Marxism) is an evil ideology with centuries of academic thought driving it.

Believe me, I wish they were just stupid. But if they were stupid, they would just be violent rabble and we wouldn’t even be talking about them.
