    So today I drove five hours to see the eclipse, had a tire blow out, didn’t see the eclipse because of thick clouds, and got stuck in traffic for hours on the way back. (I’m still not home.) But at least I haven’t been shot by maniac, yet.

    Come on, what do I say here? Lock her in jail? Push her off the cliff?? Craziness should not be supported unless it’s in a tiny padded cell under constant supervision. Too many people in this country claim insanity and if she really is, let her watch Boomerang all day; if she’s not test her boomerang-ability

    It’s so weird that they freaked out this much over just this Eclipse. There was an eclipse last year and I didn’t hear a peep from these people.

      They happen about every 18 months, and thus are a rather normal and common natural phenomenon.

      Crazies gonna crazy, though.

        Every 6 months really. They just happen in places people aren’t a lot of the time. Heck next year north America will get another eclipse… But you’d have to travel to northern Canada in early spring to see it and it doesn’t sound nearly as fun a vacation spot as Mexico I bet to the chasers.

      I think it’s because giant singing and man-eating plants are a real concern.

      2017 was all “Look at the science! Isn’t this cool!”

      But then THAT path only brushed the Bible Belt…

      Maybe because last year they didn’t have Marjorie Taylor-Greene tell them that earthquakes and eclipse are a warning from god?

    There’s never people who God tells them to go cook really good food for the poor. Or maybe we just don’t hear about them because that’s not really news worthy.

    God told her to because of the eclipse

    When the Creator tells you to do something like that, you want to get it in writing just in case the judge has a different theological take on the matter.

      Moses needed to get “Don’t kill people” written in stone but these folks just believe anything they hear

      Blind obedience to god telling you to murder someone, no matter how dear they are to you, is one of the most highly praised actions in the Abrahamic canon.

      After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” He said, “Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.”
      –Genesis 22:1-2

      Ya, Yahweh is a bit of a dick.

    It’s because she didn’t wear the special glasses. Or mental illness; probably the latter.

      It was the chemtrails. I have photographic proof of Chemtrails visibly crossing the eclipse. I know Joe Biden scheduled the eclipse so we all look up at the right time to be exposed to the mind control chemicals

      … is this really easier for some people to believe, than mental illness?

        I had to explain to someone that the glasses are needed because you never stare at the sun no matter how dim it may seem. I’m not sure what they originally thought the glasses were for but I get the idea they thought the eclipse was giving of weird energy or powers…
