"Calling glitter a missile is a bit of an exaggeration. Don't you think?"
A 'glitter bomb' is a missle of unknown construction until the investigation is complete. hindsight is not a relaible defense in these violent times as embraced by the president, DOJ and the rest of the current administration.
In fact if a grade school kid said or wrote the word, "BOMB" he would be arrested and profiled.
A boy at school threw a ripped up piece of paper at my son. Do you think I should call the police for a full investigation, and possible missile charges?
I imagine the conservatives who are showing such consternation about this would be singing your praises.
you imagine WRONG. throwing something at someone, even glitter, is considered an assault on that person.
it might seem inconsequential to you that it was only glitter, but what about next time when someone throws something more dangerous? does that still remain inconsequential?

Based on the posting history of the individual you're addressing it will remain inconsequential as long as the recipient of the thrown object is not a liberal Democrat.

Wow that is a lot of assumptions there. I am of the opinion that prosecutors and police will sort out if a crime has occurred and will deal with it accordingly. With that said I have been on CD long enough know that if someone had just glitter bombed some random person no one would care and if someone glitterbombed say Pelosi the rightwingers would be cheering them. This is just an excuse for a bunch of rightwingers to get their pants in a trist about liberals. Trust me, just compare threads of Kennedy's death and Breitbart's death and you will see exactly what I am talking about.
As you can see both threads have been locked and subject to much mod editing.
