    1. @Snutz, D. and communist china Iraq iran cuba canada Venezuela france UK all want joe blow who sniffs and wont tell.in office

    1. Breaking Bad. And people have known about ricin for decades. It was used in the “poison umbrella”, look it up. Gotta admit, that was a slick move.

  1. Trump should just “play it down” like he did with the coronavirus.
    ” The ricin poison will all just disappear. I hear it goes away with the heat.”

    1. Kindling point of paper is 250 degrees Celsius. Ricin is inactivated at 80 degrees Celsius. Won’t help with medications, seeds, or livestock, but it will fix the Ricin.

    1. @Iron Snowflake Thankyou Iron Snowflake, song almost wrote itself. Every month another debacle to be synthesized into a tight punk verse, and after 3 years enough chaos for a full song. All the best, help yourself to USB or Bluetooth downloads. It would be an honour if both songs made it to your car stereo, great drive to work tunes. All the best, stay safe. I work in education, my mask stays on in my school.

    1. @Mark Haddox Ohhhhhhhhhhh, okay. So, being Welsh/German, any time a waiter asks what kind of potato I want with my steak, he’s being racist, huh? Or if, fake god forbid, the special is sauerkraut at a restaurant, I can be assured they knew I was coming and are just ridiculing me?

    2. @Joanne M . Only racist think there are associations between foods and people. Maybe you should embrace your local diversity.

    3. @scott tyger . If your Welsh German your definitely a racist. I cant believe there are still people like you in the current year. Unbelievable. You should be ashamed of yourself.

    1. Just like Bidens Campaign a fart in the wind. Ah ha ha ha sniff sniff oh your hair smells wonderful. Ah ha ha ha ha ha losers

    2. Fireball XL5 covid hasn’t killed 200,000 either,. Test are unreliable. Most People may be dying with virus but not from virus. You can’t shut down the world for over a year when majority of virus symptoms are so minor people don’t know they are infected

  2. That’s not something that just anyone has hanging around their basement. Ask Putin, he seems to have it occasionally.

    1. @Kathleen Flacy Is it in “castor oil” ….. In low amounts if it is .. I had to drink that horrible stuff once. Never again.

    2. @Trisha Ann Good question. Found an article in Popular Science that says
      “the oil itself does not contain ricin; the ricin protein is left behind in the ‘castor bean mash’ after the oil is extracted from the seed.

    3. @Kathleen Flacy thank you…I’m not sure what I’m thinking about. I’m more adept at biopharmacokinetics than poisons. Apprec the info

  3. Trump: people love me. I get so much mail. No president ever gets more mail than me. I had some guy named Ricin mail me.

    1. @J.C Ford but it’s true all you people that watch MSNBC are a bunch of left-wing radicals and crazies one step away from the booby hatch
