From Staff Reports
NORMAN -- An explosion near the University of Oklahoma's Gaylord Family-Memorial Stadium killed one person Saturday, OU officials said.

The explosion happened at the courtyard near the George Lynn Cross Hall, Botany-Microbiology Building on OU's campus, which is west of the stadium, according to Sgt. Gary Robinson of the University police department.

The explosion happened during the second quarter of Oklahoma's game against Kansas State.

After the explosion, police set up a perimeter of several blocks and made fans exit the stadium to the east.

Sgt. Gary Robinson said he could not say whether officials believed any act of terrorism was indicated.

"I have no information on whether it is or isn’t," Robinson said.

"Right now we do know there was a device that exploded. We don’t know what the device is, what the make of the device is, what compound was used. We do know we have at least one fatality. We don’t know the gender of the person.

"We have the area sectioned off, we are checking to make sure there are no other devices in the area or injuries or (other) fatalities."

If the dead student turns out to be named Abdul or Mohammed, and he or she is a follower of the Prophet, then we'll know what's up.

It was Sept. 24/25.

Remember that weird case where a guy strapped a bomb to another guy and it went off while they were figuring out what to do?

The pizza dude. They have narrowed the perp search I think to some 3 people. That was just sick sick sick.

Ramadan begins Oct.4 or 5, depending where in the world you are. Maybe someone answered already, but this is what I've read recently.

Wasn't it found in 3 censor's around the mall area from last week?

No more odd than suicide by plane crash and I'm refering to the idiot kid in Tampa who stole a Cessna and crashed it into a building.

Ah yes, a møøselimb student pilot, IIRC.

[kjam22]

Now they are asking gender and nationality of the bomber.... that is unknown.

No motive known. Reporter bimbet says she talked to witnesses, but she knows nothing???

[oceanview]

when we get the name of the person who is dead, we will know.

Trust the media to be ineffective when muslims are involved. I may be reading too much here but as others have noted: this story is fishy.

"When does Ramadan begin? Anyone know? I know it's soon. It is a very significant and emotive date for Muslims."

It's different every year because they follow the lunar year, Fitting for a moon god. When Ramadanadanaramistan is at it's peak, that's when Mecca should be bombed and made a glass bowl. You get more of the die hard Islamic nuts gathered in one spot that way.

Why hasn't President Bush been there yet? Must not be enough "white-people" in Oklahoma

What a crock of shit. Do they think we are idiots?

Yes.

Actually the pilgrimage month comes shortly after Ramadan.

"Thank you for flying Prozac Airlines."

I've been turned to FOX for 20 minutes. Geraldo is talking about the young lady in Aruba, the prick Vandersloot in Holland, and the Bali bombings which have been there all day. Not one word about Oklahoma City explosion. It does not make sense, give FOX had a news alert yesterday that there might be a news alert regarding a possible nomination of a possible SC justice. What is up?

[Palladin]

Maybe...unless it's a Johnny Jihad type kid.

[milford421]

"Now they are asking gender and nationality of the bomber.... that is unknown."

It will be most difficult to cover up if this is terrorist activity. Again, I believe the main emphasis right now is on avoiding a panic.

[Soul Seeker]

Charges of conspiracy to hide the truth this early are absurd.

Would we rather the MSM lead with the usual rumor and innuendo panicing everyone then discover weeks later it was wrong?

I choose to wait for confirmed facts. And as people have stated, the name released will likely be a giveaway.
