Dad: Oklahoma student bomber wasn't politically motivated

For some reason, I think I may have met the guy during Rush Week (he was in the Triangle fraternity). And if it was politically/religiously motivated, we probably would've found notes and messages from him on the subject.

I love it how many FReepers jump to conclusions.

Thank you for imparting some sense here... watch out for the flames though... the tinfoil hat brigade does not like their theories debunked so quickly.

[Americanwolf]

Funny some say he looks Muslim in this pick.... I would have sworn he was Amish! (perspective folks!)

[Walkingfeather]

He may be right... For muslims it is not politics it is religion. To kill the infidel is to go straight to paridise.

[Reactionary]

"And he took the care to select an open area where there was no one around."

Yeah, an "open area" where there are tens-of-thousands of people around waiting to exit a game. That's real "open."

How thoughtful of the terrorist maggot.

As stated before, BAN THE QURAN!

[righttackle44]

I'm not politically motivated, either. Do I HAVE to blow myself and some people up?

[philsfan24]

guy looks like doogie howser.

[Americanwolf]

how many did he kill besides himself again?

oh yeah...none...

[lastchance]

Yeah it seems pretty dang inconsiderate to me to have your body pieces strewn about for anyone to step on. I mean that has got to be a major even in the psych trauma annals.
Nice considerate suicides should write their notes. Go out to a place for from civilization and then commit the act.
Truthfully I believe suicide is horrible and I grieve for those who think death is the only solution. But to say any suicide but especially a public one is a considerate act is just assinine.

You see this?

[hoosiermama]

Maybe he was an Amish wannabee?
;^)

I, too, would have thought Amish, but he's not wearing a hat.

Hinrichs III sister says she hadn't talked to him for about eight months. Something a little weird about that also.

its the new hatless sect from california...! :)

j/k

[Hugin]

Perhaps we should leave the questions of his motivations to be answered by the folks investigating this.... or does the tinfoil hat brigade think they are in on this too...

You don't have to be a tinfoil hat type to see the FBI has been doing everything possible to avoid calling terrorist incidtents "terrorist" since 9-11. DC sniper John MOHAMMED? Not a terrorist. An Egyptian muslim shoots up the El Al counter at LAX? No terrorism there. Nope, not a single incident since 9-11. Unless a perp has an official Al Qaeda membership card it's just another random act of senseless violence.

[Fitzcarraldo]

it's bad enough for his family that he died this way - why make it worse by connecting him to AQ /sarc

[Americanwolf]

I have not talked to My SOB of a middle brother for 6 months what is so unusual about family members not talking... as adults siblings don't always get along..

News 9 is reporting that he went to the same mosque as Zacarias Moussaoui.
