Madison County Board Chairman Slusser defends Fauci hanging post as 'rhetorical hyperbole'
Madison County Board Chairman Chris Slusser said Friday that a comment he made on Facebook calling for the “public hanging” of Dr. Anthony Fauci was “rhetorical hyperbole.”
Slusser’s comments were posted in the replies to a post that appears to have since been deleted. Slusser, from his personal account, made the comment around 1:30 p.m. Wednesday.
“He should receive a public hanging,” Slusser wrote of Fauci.
On Friday, Slusser pushed back against criticism of the post.
“Anyone with common sense knows the remark wasn't a literal call for public execution,” Slusser wrote in a Facebook post. “It was obvious rhetorical hyperbole — the kind of exaggerated language people use every day. It was a call for more public scrutiny. If certain people are going to be offended by every figure of speech, they’ll never stop being offended.”... Rest of article:stlpr.org/government-politics-…

An industry-wide standard Microsoft invented to protect Windows, and later Linux, devices from firmware infections has been trivial to bypass for 13 of its 14 years of existence. The discovery was made by researchers at security firm ESET after identifying 11 firmware images, at least one from 2013, that were known to be defective but remained signed by the software company anyway.
"The robot, unable to appreciate the gravity of the situation, didn’t leave, even when the cops deployed a flashbang device during the operation. And why would it care about that? It doesn’t have our pathetic eyes, filled with sensitive jelly. Nothing will stop it from getting that five-star rating." vice.com/en/article/a-doordash…
A house in my town. Apparently the neighbors weren't happy about their Pride yard display, so they decided to show them what they think about bigoted opinions.
