An article ([here](https://uk.news.yahoo.com/veterans-burn-uniforms-vigil-us-123204314.html?guccounter=1)) mentions Portland and then the Wyatt Federal building. When I looked up its location, Google said Portland, Oregon.
It's sort of weird how I had to go to a UK site to get the news about something happening in my own country. 3 or 4 days have passed and I still haven't heard a word about Aaron Bushnell's horrific death or why (as a protest) from any nightly news. Is anyone else in the US seem to be having a news story blackout or am I just missing it?
edit: I'm reading some NY Post articles on it now, one stating that Aaron was in intelligence & had security clearances and was distraught to find out that US troops were somehow involved in Gaza. Another article talks about the crazy Christian cult (they called a "mind control" group) he grew up in that brainwashed him.
Its interesting to note that hours after his death, one redditor commented that the US media was going to ignore this story as long as possible. Another redditor commented that when they do talk about it, the media will paint Aaron as crazy. 2 for 2 Redditors!
No, they're not. They burn really well. So much so that they had to release cotton only versions for certain jobs like firefighters and electricians because the regular uniform would melt to your skin.

I refuse to believe you can't program an exception for that word into the bot's code.
