SANTA MONICA, Calif. - Authorities in Santa Monica arrested an Indiana man Sunday morning ahead of the LA PRIDE parade in nearby West Hollywood after the discovery of possible explosives in a car, according to California law enforcement.

Just before 3 p.m. ET, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti told the Associated Press a heavily armed man was arrested, and that man told police during his arrest he was going to the PRIDE parade. Investigators removed items from the suspect's white Acura sedan and placed them on the sidewalk near the driver's side door, according to KNBC.

Santa Monica Chief of Police Jacqueline Seabrooks identified the suspect on her official Twitter feed as James Howell of Indiana. She said Howell told officers he wanted to harm the PRIDE event. Chief Seabrooks said he was arrested for weapons and explosive materials possession.

post 80 above:

It is EXACTLY what you guessed.

Guy looks like he’s from Norway, maybe carrying a surfboard to a good swell off of Newport Beach.

He’s PERFECT.

“With what law are they going to charge him?”

Driving while white and carrying explosives.

I think the explosive was tannerite. Hardly a super explosive, but I guess if deployed in the right way it could do some damage. Maybe.

Just what the FBI ordered, the better to head-off Racism Accusations:

Some dummie, fit the bill, wrong place, wrong time.

But he does look good to feed to the media, at this particular point in time.

Next week it will turn out he has no muzzie association, but no one will then care, and he will have served his purpose:

"We need funding and today we gotta catch SOMETHING, guys..!!!!"

I see twiiter comments that say the killer in Orlando was not anti gay because he was Muslim. likewise this guy is not Muslim but he is anti-gay.

The Government is TERRIFIED of disgruntled patriots with Tannerite.

It’s a mixed, bitter-sweet thing though. One, they keep a list of everyone who orders the stuff. But it’s also a brilliant way to make a lot of bad people go away when the government attempts to come after patriots.

The government HATES tannerite, but loves the mailing list that it gives them.

“My first reaction is that this is all made up to take the pressure off the muslim killer from Florida.”

I too wondered if this was government initiated. What is his background? I thought it extremely coincidental that James Holmes, the Colorado theater shooter had his undergraduate degree in neuroscience - makes me wonder if the CIA has programs similar to the MK Ultra again.
This Howell guy has the same spooky look in the eyes as Holmes, the Sandy Hook shooter, and Dylan Roof.

Santa Monica Chief of Police did not mention Howell until AFTER sending her condolences to Orlando (in reverse order):

"Jacqueline Seabrooks ‏@SantaMonicaCoP 3h hours ago Resident called @SantaMonicaPD to report possible prowler which led to arrest of James Howell of Indiana. No known connect to circs in FL."

"Jacqueline Seabrooks ‏@SantaMonicaCoP 4h hours ago Man told @SantaMonicaPD officer of wanting to harm Gay Pride event during arrest for weapons and explosive materials possession."

"Jacqueline Seabrooks ‏@SantaMonicaCoP 4h hours ago Our hearts go out to Orlando community"

He can’t be biased.....he is from Indiana. This is what we learned about the Mexican American judge, right?

local news reports he was in that area on a specific street, knocking on doors, looking for ‘a buddy’ who supposedly was to accompany him. One of the homes thought he was a prowler, and dropped a dime.

I'm guessing the WH staged shooting unit pulled the prescription logs for psychotic drugs and targeted him for psychological manipulation via the Internet. Just had to make sure he gained access to the weapons needed via one of their black market weapons subcontractor agents...

Dear Black Market Weapons Subcontractor Unit,

If you guys are game, I would like to order the following items:
  1. An H&K MP5 3-rd-burst full auto with integral suppressor, subsonic ammunition, and a FLIR night scope.
  2. A Russian RPG-7V2 with 25 rounds of TBG7 Thermobaric warhead rockets, and 50 rounds of PG-7VR Tandem HEAT warhead rockets.
  3. A GE M134 Minigun in 7.62×51mm NATO with 10,000 linked rounds.

I promise I am crazy as a s***house rat and will commit a heinous event with such hardware.

As proof of my insanity, I offer you the following narrative: "Booga booga! OOOOOO! Moon is cheese is rain is squirrel! Booga booga booga!"

Looking forward to your approval and delivery,

Laz
