Enormous etchings of numbers interpreted as threat to Trump appear on National Mall
Source: Washington Post
Police respond to what appears to be the anti-Trump message 86 47″ etched into the grass near the World War II Memorial.
U.S. Park Police, the D.C. fire department and members of the National Guard were seen responding Thursday to what appeared to be large-scale etchings of the numerals 86 47 on the grounds of the National Mall.
The numerals 8, 6 and 7 were visible, but the 4 wasnt clearly etched into the grass. It remains unclear how the markings were made. The term 86 is restaurant industry slang that generally refers to the unavailability of an item or a customers removal. Trump allies have argued it can also mean to kill someone. Trump is the 47th president of the United States, so the digits have been used to show opposition to Trump and have been seen by some as a threat against him.

(25,502 posts)...that way you can use more of the retina to better make out the letters. The middle is a "blank" as that is where the optic nerve connects to the back of the eyeball.

I also can't see the outlines while looking directly, but they do appear very faintly when I turn my gaze just to the side of the number 8 and 4. Look directly, no can see. Look to the side, you might see something.
Our eyes are amazing instruments. Most can see 10 million, but some can see over 100 million different shades of colors. I know this orange traitor turd in Washington who can only see green.

Maybe it's something that kills the grass slowly ... and maybe the grass is dying slower than they planned?

Please tell me this is a joke that is too sophisticated for me to understand. Sadly, when I look
at FAT ELVIS in a size 90 (me being nice), do you really want to be bored to death watching a

(384 posts)I suppose the statute of limitations has passed by now, it has been 60 years. While walking home from the ball field, tossing a ball in the air and catching it, my baseball went in the yard of an old cranky fart. When I went in his yard to get it, he came out screaming at me and shaking his fist! I was terrified and ran all the way home.
Came back later with weed killer. Made sure he was not home and wrote a word that rhymed with truck in letters six feet high on his lawn. Got out of Dodge quickly. For a day or two there was nothing unusual. Then it appeared. It was at a busy intersection, and most of the town saw it.
I think my dad suspected I was involved but thought it was funny.
Anyway, we now know that this gets under his skin. America, you have your marching orders!

Note to whoever did this: Next time, bring enough weed killer or whatever to finish the job!
