I almost felt the need to reply to Noble with "Why don't you choke on the chlorine instead, Noble?"

I have no way on describing on how everyone in a neighborhood is going to react to a helicopter landing in the middle of the street.

Quote of the Week: "A NEW STORY ON WRITING THREAD FOR HALLOWEEN!! MYSTERY MINE AVAILABLE NOW!"

RPs I do
- How do you do fellow kids? You want to see something violent? - Artemis: Deimos Trafficking League (Horror/Mature)
- Descend into the forgotten tourist traps of Florida on this transgressive RP! - The Community (Mature/Black Comedy/Slice-of-Life)

My overall account that I use for P2TM and even for international roleplaying! MNM is a mysterious and extremely dangerous dictatorship filled with supernatural oddities, demons, militarized soldiers everywhere, and a misanthropic nihilistic dictator who doesn't give a damn. It's basically if the SCP Foundation got mixed with 1984.

How do you figure


Justice is popular and has a pretty good record, and Minnesota actually has a historical thing for IPM/third party, should be pretty fine running as an incumbent

Hazel is ideologically funky without a clear base and the big parties are going to be much more invested in the chance to pick up a swing state Senate seat in the race. But I'm expecting that to be an extremely fun race probably with four big candidates in the running, I'm assuming the Progs will want to take a shot at it just with its weirdness

And then Schnider obviously has been a lame duck since the literal Nazi salutes and thumbs ups for killing Jews happened, and whatever that whole militia takeover utopia was

Is there even much a point of running there? Since I doubt the GOP could ever loose and Schnider isn’t coming back.

Lol, apparently

Didn't part of it happen at a Walmart or something though? I'm struggling to remember

I might be confusing it w/when Hutchinson had that wanting to fund a private army via Walmart thing

A big time blue dog could have a chance, especially if the midterm turns very blue and the Vanguards maybe siphon a few percentage points off the far edge of maybe more likely GOP voters

But that's a longshot and I don't think we should assume Schnider is running again, any successor probably wouldn't even get to single digits

We can probably just assume that the Vanguard Party isn’t fielding anyone in that case.

The Wilson bombshell video
"Good morning. An inside source close to the Hutchinson campaign, who I will not name for his own protection has revealed to me and the FBI corruption by his campaign. He has revealed a plan to corrupt Vanguard Party politicians in Arkansas. He is conspiring with Wal-Mart to acquire military equipment to attempt to overthrow the state government. I believe that Mr. Hutchinson should be convicted of high treason for attempting to overthrow the state government. This is an unacceptable use of power. The people of Arkansas voted for the Vanguards, they can decide when to get them out. If you love corruption and coups, go ahead, vote for him. But if you want honesty in politics vote Wilson. Go to Troywilson2016.org if you want more on the fraud called Hutchinson.

Schneider can still win re-election. Just have him burn down the state capitol and then declare martial law. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
