64. Are they calling out Xian terrorists?

Dec 2022

Or are the media even calling them "Rightwing domestic terrorists?"

If the answer to either question is "no," then the media is covering for them.

All right. Not "in on it" then, just aiding & abetting. Orrex Dec 2022 #80

Until they figure out who did it, calling them anything would be premature. nt EX500rider Dec 2022 #77
