The Russia/collusion story must be losing steam. Time for CNN to go back to their favorite past time of exaggerating racial threats against black people.

(CNN) The NAACP is sending a strong message to people of color traveling through Missouri: Go at your own risk.

The organization is circulating a travel advisory after the state passed a law that Missouri's NAACP conference says allows for legal discrimination. The warning cites several discriminatory incidents in Missouri, included as examples of "looming danger" in the state.

The NAACP says this is the first travel advisory ever issued by the organization, at the state or national level. The Missouri conference initially published the advisory in June, and it was recognized nationally at the NAACP's annual convention last week.

What could cause the NAACP to issue a travel warning for people of color traveling to Missouri, you may ask? Klan rallies on the rise? Lynchings? Nope.

The advisory was issued after Senate Bill 43 -- which makes it more difficult for employees to prove their protected class, like race or gender, directly led to unlawful discrimination -- passed through the Missouri Legislature in June. Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens signed it into law soon after.

Aha! The NAACP issued their travel warning based on a Senate Bill aimed at curbing the onslaught of racial discrimination lawsuits that exist. So no actual new threat to people of color actually exists, besides the fact that they're no longer allowed to sue their former employer for 'racial discrimination' if they're fired for showing up late to work.

CNN and the dinosaur media does apparently. Both remain silent about the many black on white violent crimes that take place in Missouri.

Their budget now is less than it was in 2005, and I am not even talking inflation adjusted, and in the whole scheme of things 2005 rather sucked.
