The comments attributed to the FBI director in the article sound like he is advocating for this perp.

Perhaps he was upset with sodomites being allowed into the military.

How come I've never heard of a 'gruntled' worker? It's always the disgruntled ones. Does anybody know what a gruntled worker is?

Ethiopia is majority Christian, but about one third Muslim.

Asked to confirm that evidence found in Melaku has been linked to last year's shootings, an FBI spokeswoman declined comment, citing "an ongoing investigation."

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee is probably still holding out suspicion that the shootings were done by an anti-abortion activist "Christian terr-rist".

Perren said authorities “do not believe it is his intention to harm innocent citizens or Marines,” adding that the suspect “has attempted to avoid casualties by acting during the nighttime and non-business hours.” In fact, no one was injured in any of the shootings.

I've never seen a government official use this "tact" when discussing an off-hours abortion clinic bombing or arson attack. The entire movement to end infanticide is tainted by the criminal acts of a few people. But with REPEATED Islamist attacks on US military sites INSIDE the US, we use kid gloves and hem and haw that things are not what we think we see.
