The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

No.

Residents of Springfield reported it. The original person may say something now, but that doesn't change how all this got started.

I really don't get how someone (not just you) could read an outrageous story and then take it at face value. Just a bit of digging, and the truth comes out. Instead, people perpetuate the lie, and other people get threatened and/or are in fear for their lives. Over a lie.

You're forgetting a few things.
The major issue isn't the eating cats and dogs, it's the fact that a relatively small town like Springfield has been INNUNDATED with migrants with very little resources evidently expended to help that out.

Why was that done in the first place?

What was brilliant about the entire thing was how the democrats fell for the misdirection: Every democrat "fact checking" outfit went nuts trying to debunk the cats and dogs thing (and they still can't deny the other video)...while missing the fact that while they were so busy trying to dunk on Trump the entire issue stayed in the headlines.

Just awesome.

The left got played, and it was beautiful to see.
