#1
Asteroid Simulator

Given the size, of less than 3ft.

The simulator says it likely blew up or burned up 19 miles above the ground.

Wake me when it's cruise ship size.

#3 Don't waste a good Asteroid on a Land base hit.
It would only get you amere 900k to 1.2 Million total killed liberals.

For maximum Liberal elimination, go for coastal cities.
LA, SF and NYC using an impact of 4 to 5 miles offshore.

The impact will create a 2,500+ ft tall tsunami.

It's good for about 2 to 3+ Million liberals killed at those 3 locations

Example:
SF 4 to 5 miles offshore:
An estimated 2,363,310 people would die from the fireball alone.
A 260+ decibel shock wave get you another estimated 221,252 people.
An estimated 901,728 people would die from the 30,403 mph wind speed blast.

#4 I'm beginning to wonder if the increasing frequency of reporting is NOT due to farther reaches of remote sensing but the occurrence of a 'harbinger density function'.
