6/17    I realy just don't know what to say about this.

        \_ This will finally bring an end to degenerate "modern" art.
           \_ We can only hope...
        \_ I don't get it.  As far as I can tell the people who wrote this
           page have no idea what the case is about.  It might not have
           anything (directly) to do with the art.
           \_ So tell me, what is the case "about"? It seems obvious to
              me that the Justice Dept knows that this is no threat. Have
              they decided that art they don't like is terrorism now?
              \_ How would I know?  I just said that the people closest to
                 them don't know.  Why would I?
