He was there with OWS in DC.
But since he’s a leftist he’s “metally ill.”
Only right wing shooters know exactly what they are doing and are symptomatic of the larger political movement to which they tangentially associate.
To: donhunt
I wonder if the alleged assassin is an American citizen Probably a card-carrying racist Tea-Partier, clinging to his guns and religion, dontcha know.

He shoots at the White house, yet who does more damage to it? Noobama or this guy? I don’t see this dude pushing WW3 nuke style in the middle east.

Hmmm, a non-white sounding name, a member of OWS....hmmmm.

He ought to tell his court appointed lawyer he needs to make sure that the guy that they say he was shooting at is really who he says he is......

U.S. Park Police found an abandoned vehicle, with an assault rifle inside itAs if shooting at the WH with bullet proof glass wasn't enough to put him on the potential Darwin list. Stupid criminal tricks.

"Charged with attempting to assassinate President Obama even though he was not there."
It must be covered under the totally unknown law of "assassination in absentia."

Obama’s “Asia” remark revealed more about how he views himself rather than his lack of geography knowledge.
To: jazusamo
How did he get so close.Fox is saying that it is suspected that the kids were home with the Grand Mom.They must be terrified.What if they were outside.How could he get so close.

If he’s a head case, what the he!! is he doing with a firearm, an AK-47 to boot? And, if he’s a homeless guy like I’ve heard he is, what does he do with his AK when he’s not using it?
