So is that five arsons, and three accidental fires at black churches in just two weeks? What the gently caress is going on here?

Same thing that happened in Birmingham Alabama 1963 if my guess is right. Terrorism.

No doubt there's a very serious issue here (5 still seems like a lot), but it is important to keep perspective on the human tendency to see patterns in things.

All at black churches. Forgive my rush to judgment.

I sincerely doubt those black churches are the only buildings that have been accidentally or purposefully lit on fire in the past two weeks.

And I sincerely doubt that racist angst over the confederate flag and a string of black churches burning is a coincidence. For what it's worth, I hope you are right.

Last I heard, those were the primary theories for the Tallahassee and Ohio fires. Does anybody have more current information?

Investigations are ongoing, but it looks like another one is on fire now. That makes 8 so far.

Three of those fires have been ruled arson, one was determined to be caused by a falling branch and faulty wiring, and the others remain under investigation. Several have been blamed preliminarily on lightning; weather in the South this week has been turbulent

I'll never understand why people are so afraid of the idea of a bunch of stupid waste buried deep beneath lovely land that nobody ever goes to. :hydrogen: ~ATOMS~ :hydrogen:

DoJ says no criminal investigation into Hillary's emails.

Not only no investigation, they weren't even asked to do it. It's a bullshit rumor.

Elijah Cummings posted:

"I spoke personally to the State Department inspector general on Thursday, and he said he never asked the Justice Department to launch a criminal investigation of Secretary Clinton's email usage,” Cummings said in a statement, as quoted by The Hill.

They also have free copter rides at the Gathering of the Juggalos and I honestly don't know which copter I'd be more scared to board.

You must be at least this classy to ride the Trump Copter - - - - - - - ->
