They are saying they will have "more details" at 10 tonight. I'll watch to see what they might have.
Maybe the NYT and the WP will run banner healines tomorrow?
Naah!
"Maybe he wanted the AN to make his suicide bombing more effective."
Or, maybe a little of that, a little of this, a little diesel fuel and voila, truck bomb, act II in Oklahoma.
You're welcome. I just ask in return that you help keep the story bumped and ping your friends since MSM=MIA.
More like, turned back over so no one would notice.
The rumor that he had Jihadist materials was only footed by WND... hardly a reliable source for the past year, at least.
"More like, turned back over so no one would notice."
Why? That's what I've always wondered. So the economy wouldn't tank?
Ping to some of you who might be interested in this item. It's becoming more and more evident that this kid was not that tragic 'individual suicide' that the University President is so anxious to proclaim.
Certainly gives a whole new meaning to Boomer Sooner.
This came from freeper digitalbrownshirt's blog: Hinrichs bombshells
Local Oklahoma City CBS affiliate News 9 had a report on Joel Hinrichs this afternoon that said he had a Pakastani room mate. They didn't want to name him yet, but it appeared that they're going to actually cover the story, so President Boren better come up with a new story soon. They also said that Hinrichs tried to buy ammonium nitrate from a feed store a few days before his death. That's the same fertilizer that was used by Timothy McVeigh when he blew up the Murrah Building in downtown Oklahoma City. In additon the report said that their sources had seen Joel Hinrichs at the Islamic center that is located just a block from his home.
I'll post a link to the story as soon as it's posted on their website. Hopefully tonight.
Just a suicide my ***.
Let us not jump to conclusions. Depressed people often try to find an outlet for their depression by getting a hobby.
Oklahoma is known as being a state with a large Agricultural base. Hinrichs most likely had decided to take up farming and was laying in some supplies. He was also reputed to be unhappy with his major. I think it is not unreasonable to think he was switching from Engineering to Agriculture. OU does have its Aggies, does it not?
If you look at it with the calm rational eyes of Boren we might conclude that Hinrichs choose the open space by the stadium to commit suicide because it reminded him of his frustration of being taken away from his love of farming by the demands of his ME studies. Ok. We can remove the sarcasm tag now.
FYI re the best kept secret of the MSM this past week.
That would be a good first guess. Plus, their fear of mass panic and possibly reprisals.
"How many people were killed in OKC, 140?"
168
The media silence is DEAFENING! sending this on to Drudge, LGF, and others... you should too
Sooner Boomer? Yes, I know. Poor taste.
When someone is looking a AN, they thinking beyond just killing themselves.
Good for News 9! Is that KOCO? If so, kudoes to them for not knuckling under and burying this story, in fact for aggressively following up on it.
"beyond just killing themselves."
Maybe he was deeply nihilist, and fascinated with becoming "pink mist?"
