Bowel infection sounds about right

But you’re mistaken. It was an angry middle aged white guy in a white panel van. Didn’t Chief Moose tell us so?

Beltway Sniper attacks - John Allen Mohammed sentenced 2003, executed 2009.

“John Allen Mohammed sentenced 2003, executed 2009.”

In reality, an Islamic terrorist operation. Our leaders refuse to identify it as such.

Some curious trivia on that one...Mohammed purchased the Chevrolet Caprice used in the spree on 9/11/02.

His time of death was recorded as 9:11 p.m. on 11/10/09.

Blooming Grove Township is about 35 miles east of Scranton.

How fr is that from Promiseland State Park?

Yes, the Beltway Sniper admitted to admiring Osama Bin-Laden and Al-qaeda and doing their work. Sort of like Obama perhaps being a hidden Islamist operative.

Yep. I remember when they caught the jag-off. He was identified as a military veteran, not a Muslim. As if it was his military service that turned him into a killer, not his conversion to the Religion of Peace.

Then, there was his bum-chum Malvo, whom they refused to identify as an illegal alien.

It sounds like they think it was a personal attack.

About 10 miles.

The officer may have been dirty and stepped on the wrong toes....it was a well thought out hit and the perpetrator knew the routine ...we all put our pants on the same way....the public is tiring of being fleeced and watching the hard work and blood spilled in wars to be pissed away by politicians who are surrounded by men such as the deceased?....I find it tough to listen to politicians preach restrictive gun laws while they are surrounded by them...this act was not just a lone wolf...there is more to this than what is being reported....I still offer my thoughts and prayers to the wife and children left behind.

Yup

Maybe he’s not a killer; maybe it’s all just a big misunderstanding due to a breakdown in communication.

When you read the comments now, about stories like this, it’s interesting how much good will the police have lost over the last few years. Just saying...

Did any of the targeted Pennsylvannia State Troopers have anything to do with the beating of Robert Leone?

Maybe involved in one of those highway confiscations of property that are so popular in Philly?

Does at least sound personal and planned on the surface

But why attack the LEO at the police barracks? Seems like it would be a lot smarter to plan your attack at some out of the way place. The perp must be more than a little wacko.

Maybe they won’t really know if he is or isn’t until somebody actually observes him.

We, in western MD were all just waiting for them to show up here.

Turns out, they had targets all around my area mapped on their laptop.

FReeper Zygoat watched it all go down on I70 when a trucker spotted a suspicious vehicle in a rest stop and reported everything, as it happened.

Those of us who never sleep knew it was happening long before it made the news.

It was a crazy night.

Used to be the right would go to bat for the police no matter what. I just can’t do it anymore. I don’t know if this State Trooper ever did anything wrong but there is a problem in Pennsylvannia. 150 cops arrested since ‘94? Betcha that’s the tip of the iceberg.

I’m pretty sure this is Trooper Dickson’s Facebook page. Looks like he may have been a Marine vet.
