Dutschke was arrested in January on a child molestation charge in connection with the alleged assault of a seven-year-old girl at the tae kwon do studio he operates.

Dutschke, now free on bond, has previously been convicted of indecent exposure.

That’s an old Richard Pryor joke. The character “Mudbone” said it. I think the exact quote is “Tupelo is near one below.”

I'm still going to need a bigger mug and more beer. It is Saturday, after all.

Ricin is a toxin, a chemical agent, not biological.
A biological weapon would be an infectious agent, bacteria or virus. Even a swarm of rats or bees would be biological, but not Ricin.
This indictment is factually wrong. They have to change it.

I knew it wouldn’t stick to the first guy - he was a Denocrat - they’re never guilty of anything.....

It could happen to any of us, too. I’m surprised it hasn’t, yet.
