As usual, their positions and ideas can be summed up so “simply” : )

[processing please hold]

They are ‘simple’minded after all. ;)

Then why do you suppose, if that’s the case, they did this? They brought attention to themselves...maybe that’s also part of their scheming....to see how much they can get away with in broad daylight....and what reactions are, etc.

Makes me wonder if it’s not more “E’Mams”...(CAIR)...;0)

[nicmarlo]

I think there’s more than what meets the eye in this story...perhaps you are right about what it is you are wondering about, as well.

[nicmarlo]

so true...

It had no license plates (tip off that they were up to no good, duh), and turned out to be stolen.

This might suggest that every car going onto a ferry be scanned (there is software and hardware for that in use already), and compared to a constantly updated stolen car list, before every ferry leaves the dock.

If I ever ride a ferry, I will profile and photograph any sandmaggot-looking doofuses. If they don't like it, in public, tough noogies.

U.S. most armed country with 90 guns per 100 people

By Laura MacInnis 28 minutes ago

The United States has 90 guns for every 100 citizens, making it the most heavily armed society in the world, a report released on Tuesday said.

U.S. citizens own 270 million of the world's 875 million known firearms, according to the Small Arms Survey 2007 by the Geneva-based Graduate Institute of International Studies.

I do, WB. Ty!

"The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference - they deserve a place of honor with all that's good"

-- George Washington

"The best we can hope for concerning the people at large is that they be properly armed."

-- Alexander Hamilton, The Federalist Papers at 184-188

The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to permit the conquered Eastern peoples to have arms. History teaches that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by doing so.

-- Hitler, April 11 1942

Great idea. I'm going to find out whether this is done, but since it's Seattle, probably not. Wouldn't want to bruise anyone's uncivil rights.
