Police: Suspicious items found on rooftop prior to RNC

Posted: Aug 21, 2012 12:03 PM CDT Updated: Aug 21, 2012 1:03 PM CDT  

Chief Castor takes questions about Friday's find. TAMPA (FOX 13) - Tampa police say they've confiscated suspicious items from a rooftop in Tampa in the buildup to the Republican National Convention.

The items included bricks and pipes, which were found along with anarchist-style graffiti Friday evening atop a business at 1000 North Florida Ave., which is at the corner of Florida Avenue and Tyler Street.

"We are appreciative that the business owner called us," TPD Chief Jane Castor said this afternoon. 

"Finding those items for us was not a surprise," she added.  "We are just pleased to see the communications process worked the way it did."

I live on a busy neighborhood street. Our Romney sign will be up at rush hours; I’ll be on my lawn chair at a discrete distance with my digital camera.

I put the Obama-Joker why-so-socialist stickers on all the gas pump units at the filling station. Why put my car or house at risk.

I have always put signs in yard but probably will not this year.


Putting them in your yard would be like begging libs to break your windows.

So they got pipes and bricks but no people. Why didn’t they put up some cameras to watch and record who might be doing this. Now they have been tipped off.

A couple of signs were stolen from my yard last election here. The replacements were surrounded by canine feces, just so any new thief would know what I thought of their efforts.

I didn't lose any more signs.

... items included bricks and pipes...

Looks like the communists funded left is building pipe bombs. Broken bricks work as shrapnel. Pipes are needed to create the explosion. I wonder if they found empty bottles and rags?

If 'Occupy' darlings of the left - are planning on killing Republicans with pipe bombs, the Secret (whoring or not) Service needs to get their butts in gear.

Same with Homeland Paranoid Dyke run Insecurity - they need to get a move on - and I don't mean moving the men's desks into the men's bathrooms .. ( yeah, the man haters did that one) And I don't mean checking out the paranoid delusions of the Southern Poverty Law Center. There IS NO VAST RIGHT WING CONSPIRACY you effing idiots..

(If you think there is take your 'proof' to any liberal newspaper - even the suckup liberals aren't nuts enough to believe that whopper) I mean check out the violent hate filled liberals WHO RECEIVE SUPPORT FROM COMMUNISTS. Check out violent left wing nuts.

Check out "Occupy". Because WE KNOW about this and Secret Service should know about this too.

Don’t hold your breath. Obama’s DHS is on the same team as the OWS crowd and the entire city of Tampa is run by democrat goons. It doesn’t bode well.

Sounds like the Stupidity Brigade thinks they have a chance to make a difference. Strip them and make them walk through the town square in the Emperor’s (Zero) New Clothes. Prison duds for all. Orange stripes and pink underwear!

Cavuto on Fox News just had a reporter for the justice department as a Fox News Alert. DHS has put out a warning to law enforcement in Tampa about anarchist threats during RNC convention. Warning of Molotov cocktails and acid eggs. Could be an attempt to scare away people from attending as well though or they figure they are going to cover their asses when their false flag goes off.

Scary times.

It’s because conservatives believe in others individual rights. We also believe in personal responsibility. We also believe in behaving orderly.

Example: The Washington Mall after Obama’s inauguration vs. the Washington Mall after the Tea Party in DC.

The Ulsterman Report had the first query/scoop on something going on at the convention. Points to Gerard at work and some tie in with the odd Biden appearance in Tampa. A fascinating read and a foreboding one.
