ROME (AP) -- Authorities say armed attackers have taken over a bus traveling in northern Italy
This has been up at least 45 seconds, how long before dozens suggest that it’s ROP’ers.
Not that they’re wrong or anything. Some things are so predictable, it just don’t need to be said anymore...
I thought the ROP was slacking today. But, as usual, they are on the job.
I remember when a bus load of German tourists were taken over in Egypt years ago and all were killed.
Hope they stay safe.
I think I did it in :55 seconds...:-)
Does anyone want to bet how many of the attackers are named Muhammad?

Evidently Buddhists.
According to the local news here: (translation from german)
“Three north-african men have taken over a tourist bus. They are armed with pistols and knives. The police have blockaded the highway between Genoa and Simplon [Switzerland]. The bus exited the highway in the vicinity of Navarra.”
“Amoung the passengers is an off duty police officer who was injured in an attempt to subdue the hostage takers.”
Hmmm North African Amish?

Fox News just reported that they were “North Africans.” That’s mediaspeak for ROPers.
Sorry, I'm about 10 minutes too late to suggest the islamists.
However, I'll bet lunch that it's the islamists.
WHEN are those idiots in Europe going to learn what their ancestors KNEW about Muslims and Islam???
(Probably before we do here - we are still importing them and treating their cult like a legitimate religion.)
I’m surprised they didn’t just say “youths”.
