I haven't phoned anyone, but there are a few Thomases here who will not believe until they have put their fingers where the nails were.

A few right-wing blogs picked up this story and repeated it. If the police get aggravated enough with people calling, maybe there is some sort of legal action that can be taken against the website that started the rumor.

I'd love to see them prosecuted out of existence. This is not a high school prank.

I can't find it on any main stream outlets. Currently it's only nutty right wing blogs. If it is true, which I hope it's not, I'd imagine they are trying to verify it before running with the story. Of course then all the blowhards will claim they put pressure on the media outlets and that's the only reason they did it. It never could actually be anything logical, always a "cover up" of some kind.

It's always a conspiracy of some sort with these types. Somebody is denying them of real news, somebody is taking their freedom away, somebody wants to take teach an agenda to their children...they live for scaring one another to death...BOO!

I can't believe how gullible people are.
Just like the populace in The Invention of Lying.

Especially since idiots are talking about taking up arms and going down there to "defend" our border -- including several in this very thread.

This is the funnest thread I've read in a long time but it's scary sad too, how quickly people are willing to believe rumors off the internet.
