Explosive devices found on the GA Tech campus.
And the OU bomber just happened to have plastic bottles in his car? When are they going to level with us about these incidents? How long before the police guy has to back off it was a terrorist attack?
... USA & PCA are lightyears apart ...
....in case you haven't guessed....I'm PCA and have been almost 20 years.
And you and your infidel friends sit around wondering why the rest of the world hates you...the world shall be scrubbed of you and your ilk by the holy scotchpad, and fed with sacred green bean casserole.
Depends on how successfully they can suppress word of the events. If it's like the WTC bombing, then about a week. If like TWA Flight 800, then potentially forever.
That's only because they haven't yet found the depressed student that placed them there after re-thinking commiting suicide. Once they find him/her, it will be dismissed as nothing more than that.
There are still Quakers ?...........
"how long before that story changes?"
Classic disinfo tactic would be to trump this one up as a terrorist attack, build it up and build it up, only to release that (oops!) it was just a prank, and then proceed to mock anyone who "believed" it.
This actually is meant to diffuse the discussion on OU, PhiKapMom. Talk about tin foil, lol, but I think that really is the case with this.
And that was just to the sewer system.
Well when we think it through we can understand why ......
Does not play into the media frenzy that the terrorists want as they downplay the action denying them the joy of panic by the public.
Allows the Feds to investigate leads discovered to follow the network WITHOUT having all told in the press to allow them scurrying cover.
Allows the Feds to put in place monitoring devices, tracking equipment to lead to the higher ups.
Prevents public panic, copy-cat activities, recruiting advantage for the terrorists.
As opposed to the voyeuristic pleasure of the public, the use of these actions in political ploys, and the well-known ability of the press to support anti-American activities as the rights of the terrorists to kill Americans.
With George Bush in power - I would prefer to trust my government rather than the media.
Hey - Bob - someone has beer, and they ain't sharing.
Time for a Jihad!!
I picked up on that! lol......... - but I will say that our PCUSA Church was very conservative - anti all the liberal items being pushed by the Liberal side of the Church - yes, there are still hold out sections of the country. We tend to get labeled incorrectly - it is just like any other issue, San Francisco and the North East push their agenda
The guy in the turtleneck? Watch the news for him. He scares even those of us in the MLF.
Bobs, I put an entire refrigerator in my garage to lure folks in when I do yardwork - but the women around here are lazy and the men are too smart........... so I do the yardwork alone.
The explosives were made up of chemicals placed inside water bottles and could have seriously injured someone, officials said. Numerous agencies were on the Georgia Tech campus to search for suspects.
So yea water bottles. But filled with some kind of explosive chemicals. Even gasoline would not be a Good Thing. Plus they were salvage fused, that is designed to go off when handled, you can't manage that with common fireworks, even if the bursting charge is something like an M-80. More likely they were 1/4 or 1/8 sticks of dynamite.
Except that it wasn't water in those bottles. Something explosive or at least flammable.
Hobson's choice?
