I know... the news blackout on this story is very strange.
Channel 9 is being fed by The Oklahoman and OU Daily. Ties to OU are not affecting either of their reporting. They are sharing what they have investigated.
If you notice in The Oklahoman articles, there are always little facts that back up the terrorism angle and throw water on the Boren spin.
cue: crickets chirping.
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.
BINGO! We have a winner! Coddled is right and I would love to know why?
First of all let me say that if your screen name was easier to remember and spell, muawyiah, I would have posted faster. LOL
Seriously now, I do not think you should be banned nor insulted for noting that "Hispanic people have a tremendous resemblance to Middle Eastern and North African people". That was a truthful comment, and one that no one should have taken as being racist in any way, shape or manner. Sometimes political correctness can be such a pain in the behind when trying to get a point across. In all honesty, I probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference between those groups of people myself. It's not that I'm racist, it's just that the eyes can only take in so much. :)
Seriously, I didn't even know anything about it! Even though we in CA are in the annual firebug wildfire season, this is news. Trust fellow FReepers to keep us informed. Thanks!
I went to a conservative SEC school in the 80s. Life couldnt have been better. It helped that Reagan was president. It is a different world now.
A few years ago, we moved to the very edge of town and got a cat just in case some field mice wandered into our property. We didn't have ANY field mice on our property or in our house until we got this cat, because she wanders out to the field 2 blocks or so from our house and BRINGS THEM HOME. Further, she doesn't kill them first or even kill them when she gets them here because she wants to "toy" with them for a while and "watch them in action". We now have a mouse in our garage wreaking havoc (I've seen the evidence) and a mouse in our flower bed at the very least. THE FEDS ARE DOING THE SAME THING TO US WITH ISLAMIC TERRORISTS.
I'm having a hard time keeping up here so I thank you again for keeping me on the level plain. Sorry about your governor, or lack thereof. ;)
Damn, why do I feel like it is grounghog day???
What is it about OKC? Scnikies, indeed. The whole story was been downplayed at first it seemed, and I haven't had time to keep up on the threads here. I've got some reading to do.
Did Channel 9 repeat the earlier videos that show the information that forms the basis for this thread?
Can folks with high-speen internet service see the videos or is the site still down?
They sure did mellow and I wonder if they are now getting a clue about the OKC Bombing. They have sure shocked me. Channel 5 is pathetic!
I read the 7:20 p.m. also. I believe it was on the police report, but not sure.
Cool, thanks for the info!
sheesh! I HAD to get your name spelled right in order to post, but after a few minutes of getting THAT right, I then went on to misspell it in the body of my comment. I'm so sorry.
the guy had a dorm full of explosives. he could have been arrested at any time just for that.
This has got to be a Major National Story....
I have gotten used to watching things like this develop on FR (It is way ahead of the pack) but this one sure seems like it should be big
As for the bomb equipment, that was only a short distance away at their disposal range but it wasn't sitting there when I walked by that area before the game.
Thanks for clearing that up.
