My girlfriend works at a building with a lot of talk radio stations and they get death threats and fake powder and stuff all the time from people who disagree, and sometimes it might be from the side that agrees to make the other side look bad. People there take it in stride and go get a coffee while they confirm it's a hoax.

Really? Because the first thing I thought was how funny it would be if someone did this to them every single day. Too bad this post will keep me from a high-level position inside the Obama administration.

i thought it before i saw that hallmonitor wrote it. even if not, the movement and protests have been 99.9% peaceful. there will always be loonies on either side of a contentious debate such as this. but the white powder thing is soooooo seven years ago.

Check it out folks. Hallmonitor has broken the case. No need for further investigation. Move along.

I really hope whoever behind this is NOT doing it in the name of overturning 8. And hallmonitor may be on to something. It is bad for either/both sides regardless.

I wouldn't be surprised to find out that they sent it to themselves in order to hurt the image of people protesting the ban.
