Obama doesn't open his own mail?

Lazy asshole.

"Jesse, we have to cook..."

4/17/2013 11:31:42 AM

weakest assassination attempt ever.

damn! i really thought obama would open that one himself.

4/17/2013 11:32:32 AM

were they expecting him to smoke it or something

4/17/2013 11:48:57 AM

have they gotten the results back yet that its actually ricin?

4/17/2013 12:02:36 PM

Both letters are signed "I'm KC and I approve this message"

Krallum has some explaining to do.

I read yesterday that if you swallow a castor bean seed whole, it will pass through you without ill effect. Snake venom is actually the same way, and that is what makes it a venom and not a poison (there are no poisonous snakes). So would it be more accurate to say ricin venom?

If obama got assassinated, would he show his death certificate?

4/17/2013 5:00:54 PM

No, venom is distinguished by being injected (fangs, stinger, etc). Poison is absorbed (through skin, mucous membranes, ingestion, inhalation, etc).


So...bees, stingrays, snakes--these are venomous. Ricin, VX, sarin, cyanide, etc are poisons.

lol. Krallum dun got picked up.

Splitting hairs, but Duke is right.

And, well, there actually are poisonous snakes.

4/18/2013 4:39:17 PM

and it also is starting to look like ricin is really really hard to detect, so test sensitivity may be high enough to give majority false positive results

whoopsie

4/18/2013 5:03:44 PM

The guy they arrested was probably framed, the charges were dropped
