MADRID, Spain — The fingerprints of the American attorney arrested as a material witness in the Madrid train bombings were found on a plastic shopping bag that held detonators like the ones used in the deadly March 11 terrorist attacks.

Why don't guys like this put on Arab dress like Laurence of Arabia and go off and live in the desert? Why do they have to turn the world into a Caliphate?

[Palladin]

AvNell Mayfield is pretty dumb.

Her son most likely has half a dozen other identities, under which he traveled to Spain, and perhaps other countries where terrorist attacks have occurred.

[Alouette]

how could they track this guy's prints like that? From what I read, he didn't have a criminal record.

I don't have a criminal record, but I was printed 20 years ago when I interviewed for the NSA (through campus recruiting). Never completed the interview process as private sector offered a job for higher pay. I'm sure they still have my prints on file.

Why do they have to turn the world into a Caliphate?

Because Mohammed (the pedophile) commands it

When I first saw this I was thinking anyone could have finger prints on a bag and that's scary that you could be charged just on that but it looks like they have a lot more on him.

[TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig]

He was prior military. You give up your prints when you enter the military.

Mayfield, 37, attended high school in Buhler and Halstead before going to Hutchinson Community College on a track scholarship, his mother said.

In other quotes from his family members, it was reported that Mayfield joined the Army directly out of high school because he felt it was the right thing to do -- no mention of attending college first on a track scholarship.

AvNell Mayfield said that she spoke to her daughter-in-law, Mona Mayfield, by phone Thursday. She was "hysterical" and said that people were searching their home and confiscating credit cards and many boxes of possessions.

His fingerprints were found on a shopping bag containing detonators. Find the purchase made by credit card at the store where this shopping bag is from, and you have another clue.

His mother and his stepmother have contradicting stories about when he converted to Islam (one says after marriage - which apparently was in 1998, well after their kids were born - and the other said he converted in 1987) and about when he joined the Army (one says right out of high school, the other says he first went to college on a track scholarship).

If he's guilty, the best thing to do would be to execute his entire family. Of course we won't do that, but that is the sensible deterrent. Islamists want to out-populate us, and this jerk should know while he's dying that there will be no one to propogate his fetid genes.

[satchmodog9]

Buried alive with five pounds of bacon.

[PresbyRev]

Because the State should be limited in its ability to track and monitor law abiding Citizens.

[PresbyRev]

Perhaps before this clash of civilizations is over it will come to that.

[thoughtomator]

I'm afraid it will, if the liberals don't shut up and get with the program before it's too late... and I just don't see that happenning. They could themselves be killed by Islamist poisons, and they would blame Republicans as they die.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

IMO anyone found guilty (in a Military court) of conspiracy to commit mass murder of civilians should forfeit all civil rights. Next then they should be tortured for whatever information they might have and then summarily executed by Military firing squad (although I would prefer it if they were dropped into shark-infested waters).

[Rebelbase]

I wonder how many more people are going to tell you they have his prints because he was in the miitary?

[eastforker]

Hey did you know this guy was in the military? Is he kin to Kerry?

[Blood of Tyrants]

Maybe the mayor of Portland will resign and the police chief will apologize because one of their citizens committed this atrocity.

[Ronin]

All U.S. military personnel are fingerprinted when they enlist or are commissioned.

[fire_eye]

I believe everyone should be fingerprinted, what's the worry if you have nothing to hide?

Oh, yeah! For sure! In fact, let's take photographs of everyone's faces (requiring them to show up for new photographs every year), get DNA samples from everyone, take voiceprints and retinal prints, and put it all in a big government database linked by Social Security number. I mean, you've got nothing to hide, right? so why should you object? In fact... we should store every transaction you've ever made with your credit card in there too. You've got nothing to hide, so why should you care? And... oh, never mind...

This is one of the few things I really *HATE* about so-called "conservatives" - they seem to be willing to give the Government (all bow) all the necessary tools of a totalitarian police state because they think they themselves have "nothing to hide". (If I had a nickel for every time I've heard a so-called "Conservative" say "I have nothing to hide, I could retire right now).

The frightening thing is, we get the same crap from the Lie-berals, except instead of intoning about "security", they dribble on about how it's "For The Children". Either way... Welcome to 1984, braindead groveling government-worhshiping socialist style.
