A (probably drunk) guy at the Canadian-US border slammed his Bentley into a barrier after speeding up for some reason and his car exploded. Republicans decided it was a major terrorist attack and we should close the entire U.S. Canadian border and an Iranian passport was found near the car and all kinds of stupid nonsense.

It's almost like North America's rampant and unmitigaed car dependency with almost no viable alternative modes of transport is responsible for more death and suffering than terrorism!

I'm certainly not worried about the Islamic terrorism that they were fearmongering about. I am worried about one of their fans committing a terrorist act.

Especially since the US is all in on supporting "when they slap you on one cheek, genocide them on the other"
