Are anti-war activists worried this will make all anti-war activists look bad?

UPDATE: One soldier was killed this morning and another seriously injured at a recruiting station this morning. Their names will not be released until all family members, including some overseas, have been notified. The wounded soldier has been upgraded from critical to serious, but stable and is no longer considered life-threatening.

The suspect is being questioned by FBI, ATF, LRPD, and Arkansas State Police as of 1500 hrs 01 JUN 09 and LRPD spokesperson Terry Hastings will identify the suspect and a possible motive later this evening. He gave himself up after a short chase on I-630 ending on the I-30 off ramp.

There were multiple firearms, including assault weapons in the car, along with a shotgun, and assorted ammunition, and several packages thought to be explosives were examined as a precaution and there were no explosives found in the vehicle.

I am waiting for recruiters to be guarded by the treasonous administration that is in power. I am holding my breath. Good bye to all.

"Who else would Shoot at Military recruiters? There simply is no other option he is a Anti-war left wing fanatic.

There's also a reasonable possibility that this was somehow personally motivated. Both of these young soldiers had just returned to their hometown after completing basic training. Basic training isn't a long enough time for grudges to die.

If there would have been explosives in the car, then yes, I think it likely would have been politically or ideologically motivated. As of now, almost anything's possible. But, I think we can safely rule out right-wing extremist, which is why this story is virtually invisible to the MSM.

Most racist black muslims are black. A liberal relative of mine had no problem with the black muslims recruiting in our prisons.

Do you remember the DC snipers a few years back. They were black racist muslims and committing homosexual acts with each other. The media was totally silent on that. The fudge packers and black muslims are given the royal treatment by the liberal press.

The black police chief in the DC sniper case had gone after white guys in a van. That black chief had a history of filing racial complaints. White guys with rifles were being visited at their homes and threatened with gun confiscation.

O-M-G. A prime example of public school teacher DAIN BRAMAGE resulting from the end of the school year (this week). I can't believe I did that. There is simply no way to recover from that one. No pithy comments. I shot myself in the foot.... on full auto. Again. Sorry, everybody.

Isn’t it ironic that the left who called our troops baby killers during Vietnam is now supporting late term abortionists who are in fact baby killers.

Our troops are indeed heroes, they have my admiration. Also, with the left wing and the islamic fascists among us, the front lines are right here, everywhere.

There is a 95% chance that he is a black racist with an axe to grind against our military heroes. Put him in Gitmo and light up the firing squad.

The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette has the victim's names listed ...

Two U.S. Army recruiters were shot Monday morning in an apparent drive-by shooting at an Army-Navy recruiting station on North Rodney Parham Road in Little Rock, said Little Rock Police. One of the recruiters died just before noon. He is William Long of Little Rock. Queuton Ezeaghula was injured. The two victims were taken to Baptist Medical Center.

Prayers for all concerned.

More likely he was just a street thug who had a grudge against the victim(s).
