It was the photo they have on the petition web site. I swear he’ll be on t-shirts on college campuses within the year.

So did they recover any guns from his dead brother? I’ve been wondering about this all along. You can bet they didn’t get an assault rifle. That would have been the headline

I heard on the scanner that night and reported on the live thread that Boston police were reporting two pistols laying in the street. It has been reported that they also had a M-4 rifle. I have heard nothing else about that.

A witness looking out his bedroom window took many pictures of the shootout in which the older brother was killed. After the shooting stopped he discovered that a bullet had gone through his wall and through his computer chair and into an interior wall. I wonder what the caliber of that bullet is—a police bullet?

It’s all too confusing. Too many unsubstantiated reports and dare I say lies?

Boat owner said boat was like swiss cheese?
How did he shoot himself then?

Then he ought to be dead.

"Reportedly" the shot in his mouth was said to look like it came from his own doing.

Very strange reporting going on...all these unnamed sources calling media giving different stories to different media. Giving me a head ache.

One thing is certain....something very evil is going on in this country right now.

"....it is completely illegal for a civilian to have an M4."

Not true. M4's come in three different versions; semi-auto only, semi-auto and full auto, semi-auto and three shot burst. The mode of fire is determined by a selector switch. The semi-auto only version is completely legal to own by federal law, although several states have outlawed them because they fit into a home grown definition of "Assault Rifle".

The primary difference between an AR-15 and M4 is the barrel length and fixed butt stock versus a collapsible butt stock. AR-15's usually are equipted with a 20 inch barrel whereas the civilian M4's typically have 16 inch barrels.

Every part on AR-15's and M4's are interchangeable. Either can be built with many different barrel lengths and buttstock configurations.

Actually, he was on his way home from working at a homeless shelter for Jewish orphans when he heard a kitten cry. He lifted the tarp on the boat just as a band of fat, white, male Tea Partiers wearing “Bush 2004” buttons came by and shot both him and the kitten with AR-15s. The kitten died, the kid fell, wounded, into the boat, trying to cover the kitten with his own body, and cutting his throat on the peace symbol necklace he wore.

lol! That was pretty good. But you left out Mama. And trains. And pickup trucks. And rain. Oh, wait... never mind.

That’s the story as I understood it, yet, we haven’t heard a peep about or from this guy. I don’t know, maybe it’s just me, if I was in the middle of the commotion that night and been strip searched, I would probably want to talk about it!

Just putting this out there.....

We have watched over several years Obama”s support for the so called Arab Spring...which is really Al Qaeda and Muslim Brotherhood doing what they have plotted for many years...taking over entire Middle East.could it be that Obama is now working to undermine the Saudi regime? Al Qaeda has wanted to overthrow the House of Saud for many years now. Most intelligence agencies around the world fear that more than the current rulers in SA. Obama has already helped them overthrow Egypt and Libya...who is next?

Shudders.......

Very interesting thought. I just had a conversation tonight about this very thing and have decided I need to re-learn a whole lot of stuff that has gotten buried, what with all the garbage that has come our way over the last 5 long tiring years! What would barry gain though, who benefits? I don’t know the answer but it is an interesting question you pose.

The news reported they were shooting mostly blanks during the boat thing. They really wanted to keep him alive for their political purposes. Because no mater what they found out from him they knew they have the ability to make this look like a one off home grown thing. And it is America’s fault
