Courtesy of CBS 46:
A Michigan man was arrested after an FBI investigation, accused of threatening to travel to Atlanta to commit mass murder at CNN headquarters.
According to federal court documents, the man, from a Detroit suburb, made 22 calls to CNN about a week ago.
It began with claims of "fake news" and ended with threats of violence.
The man told a CNN operator, among other things, "Fake news. I'm coming to gun you all down."
He then called again, saying "I'm smarter than you. More powerful than you. I have more guns than you. More manpower. Your cast is about to get gunned down in a matter of hours."
He continued, "I am coming to Georgia right now to go to the CNN headquarters to f---ing gun every single last one of you."
So I have a question.
If this lunatic had been successful in killing a CNN news reporter, would that have made Donald Trump legally responsible in any way?
I mean the man has been fomenting violence against the media since he first rode down that escalator to announce he was going to run for president.
And since this is sure to terrify people in the Atlanta community is Donald Trump not also inspiring domestic terrorism?
Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy says he regrets getting involved in the same sex marriage debate. Oh he's still a homophobe, he just doesn't want to advertise it.
Courtesy of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
As the same-sex marriage debate rages, one person says he won’t be weighing in on the subject anymore: Dan Cathy, CEO and president of Chick-fil-A.
Almost two years after he made headlines by throwing his support behind traditional marriage and later decried a pair of Supreme Court decisions that favored same-sex unions, Cathy hasn’t changed his mind. But he said Atlanta-based Chick-fil-A has no place in the culture wars and regrets making the company a symbol in the marriage debate.
“Every leader goes through different phases of maturity, growth and development and it helps by (recognizing) the mistakes that you make,” Cathy said. “And you learn from those mistakes. If not, you’re just a fool. I’m thankful that I lived through it and I learned a lot from it."
Yeah okay.
He may have decided to keep his homophobia on the down low, but it will be a long time before he can live down things like this.
I don't care how good your chicken is, this kind of stomach churning stench can last for decades.

Yesterday in Georgia. The Snow Apocalypse.
Courtesy of Gawker:
As much as four inches of snow fell over parts of the South today, leaving a wake of destruction in its path — thousands of flights were canceled, Georgia is currently in a state of emergency, and students are stranded in schools across multiple states.
Four inches of snow and the whole damn state closes down.
Commuters in Atlanta are still trying to make their way home; at this point, some of them have now been on the road for more than 19 hours. With all of the city's major highways and roads in gridlock, many drivers took to CVSs and grocery stores for overnight shelter.
I have a friend who's truck has been hit by 6 cars. She has two kids in the car and trying to get to 2 more at daycare. She's by riverside dr by the Waffle House and publix. 911 is busy. Any suggestions???
is anyone near the QT station on Roswell Rd and Canton? My 74 year old father is trapped there in his car. He has been in his car for 12 hours now and is unable to go anywhere
Can someone tell me if there is shelter or assistance near 85 south from half mile from Clairmont exit. I have a friend with 2 very small children and they are almost out of gas.
My grandparents are stranded on 75/85 near Tech. My grandfather is on a battery operated heart pump. He has at least one extra set of batteries for the heart pump. I am very concerned now and road conditions do not seem to be improving.
Trying to get help to a Cobb County Special Ed bus driver and her 3 students... they have been on the road for hours with no food and have to go to the restroom. Theses are special needs kids and an older woman.
My husband is near exit 244 in downtown Atlanta. He is almost out of gas. Can anyone help. He has been on the road 10 hours .
My dad has a heart condition, feels faint, going on 11 hours and almost no food today. He thinks he may be have chest pain and he doesn't have his medication. How can I get him help???
That is only a taste.
It was so bad that a Walking Dead fan posted this comparison on Reddit.
The bottom photo is how the creators of the show saw Atlanta after a zombie apocalypse, the top is what Atlanta was like for real.
In the meantime in Alaska we are in our second week of unseasonably warm weather which is confusing our bear population as well as the plants.
So can some Republican tell me again, how is it that climate change is fake?

Here are just some of the horrendous stories of people being trapped for up to twelve hours in their cars on the highways.I have a friend who's truck has been hit by 6 cars. She has two kids in the car and trying to get to 2 more at daycare. She's by riverside dr by the Waffle House and publix. 911 is busy. Any suggestions???
