Don't forget that the threat of manmade global warming doesn't make any sense because CO2 is a natural byproduct on Earth.

Here in Texas we have a idiot named Dan Patrick (Rep) that is running a commercial that starts off with ISIS crossing our southern borders all because of his running opponent is soft on immigration.
The very first image of his ad shows terrorist with black flags.

Loony loony loony
So apparently a german airline co-pilot decided to lock the cockpit door while the pilot stepped out to the restroom. He then proceeded to crash the aircraft loaded with 150+ people into a mountain.
Reality is stranger than fiction.
So now when we board a flight we can add to the list of worries in addition to is the plane sound? Is there a terrorist on board? Is our pilot psychotic?

Well the title says it all.

20 year anniversary of JonBenet Ramsey's murder.
I remember this case vividly and how absolutely strange the whole thing was. CBS had a 2 day special on going over the evidence and interviews. I never saw the Burke Ramsey interviews before now but must say he is a loon. Is it illegal to be looney? No.
Is it illegal to murder your sister because she ate a piece of your pineapple snack? Apparently not if your last name is Ramsey and you live in Bolder CO.

The family is still suspect because the case has not been solved.
The DNA evidence used to clear them is suspect for various reasons the main one being the department chose to drop down to 4 genetic markers rather than the standard at the time of 13. And the unreliability of using touch DNA in a case where the crime scene was completely contaminated.
The family is still suspect because the intruder theory does not pass the smell test and just about all involved in the investigation believed it was contrived.
The family is still suspect because Burke had motive, means, and opportunity to commit this crime and his parents had motive means and opportunity to cover it up for him.
The family is still suspect because they were not charged even though in 2013 it was revealed the grand jury did in fact come back with a motion to indite them, yet the DA at the time refused to charge them.

Ringo writes:
Burke had neither motive nor means.
Burke's motive was jealousy. It is a fact that he did smear his feces over JBR bed and toys and chocolates 24 hrs before the murder. It is a fact that he has in the past, hit his sister in the face with a golf club. It has been reported by other family friends that Burke did have anger issues.
Burke's means is that he had the physical strength as a 9 year old to inflict a fatal blow to his 6 year old sisters head with a heavy blunt object (Maglight matches the open fracture in victims skull). He also had access to the murder weapon.
Burke's opportunity is that he was in the house at the time the crime occurred and has no alibi of being elsewhere.
If this is not enough to warrant suspicion I don't know what is.

Hi Ringo, I wont spoon feed you all the evidence and particulars of this case. There is enough of that available online for you to read if you are interested.
I will say that the DA at the time torpedoed this investigation from the start by refusing to issue search warrants, providing the Ramsey's ahead of their interviews with transcripts of the police reports, which is unheard of. In addition, the Bolder Police's fecklessness in failing to secure the crime scene and forensics incompetence in gathering evidence. The lead investigator resigned the case after the DA alluded that the decision not to charge was a "political decision."
If it is a conspiracy theory it is one founded on the idea that white rich privilege has poisoned our justice system in this instance. Given the particulars of how this crime was investigated it is not a forgone conclusion imo.
So paint me as a conspiracy theorist loon if you like,
don't mind a bit.
