Another instance of what I would call SIBJs "Spontaneous Independent Baliistic Jihadists". In this case, this one was detected and defused before detonation. I fear there are many thousands here who need to be either defused or destroyed. I group the two beltway snipers (despite what the MSM may claim their motives were)into the same bunch. Quite frankly, outside of a very few instances, I believe our FLEO's have clearly done a good job thus far preventing more attacks.

You have to know that the hard core terrorists want to get here and do us harm, and they want to forment just this type of spontaneous response from their "converts" here.

Didn't the republican campaign offices get hit there?

Just a matter of time. The good news is these loner kooks often out themselves prior to attack time.

What do you suppose was law enforcement's first clue that this guy was a potential security risk? If only all Islamofascists in our country were this stupid.

We had a nutcase in the Pittsburgh area several years ago, a Caucasian racist, who in one day shot up a synagogue, shot his Jewish neighbor (an elderly lady) whom he targeted specifically because he hated Jews, then he killed four other minorities and wounded three other minorities (Hindus, Asians and Blacks.) He shot up an Indian grocery and a karate studio because there were minorities there. Serving life in prison (it's amazing he didn't get the death penalty).

If these sickos are like popcorn kernels just simmering in their own poisonous slime, waiting to explode randomly in their thousands -- as you suggest -- then there will come a day when a statistically peak number of them will detonate. Making ready for that day is a concern for many on this board, Jeff, and I consider myself to be steady-ready. But how can we prepare for the actuality that the likes of this scum may cause horrific damage, despite our best efforts?
