Putin kill someone? Oh yes, it could be a Putin job. His guys always muff the hit.

Troll? You must the ultimate sleeper troll. You post among us as a conservative since 2001 just waiting for today to strike!

How diabolical!

[delacoert]

Sounds like it was rendered safe from the get go....

Yeah, it's hard to imagine a grenade with pin pulled and handle released that was subsequently picked up and rendered safe.

Dang! I wanted to pile on. ;-)

Thinking along the same lines.
The pin was pulled and the egg was tossed.
The spoon should have came off.

Might be some kinda home made weapon.
Made me scratch my head when they said that a Georgian just walked away with it.

Thoughts??

Ping!

Naw. The MSM is reporting that it was some rednecks from Atlanta. (sarcasm off)
