Lots of muslims are white.
Lots of non-muslims have dark skin.
“Dark skinned male.”
Oh dear.
I’ve got the feeling this whole thing’s headed for Benghazi.
It sure seems like we’re all too anxious to profile for males in this bombing. Why aren’t we looking at women on an equal basis as the men?
I’m sure 0 is coordinating and concocting something up with Deval as we speak. Although I’d like to think Boston law enforcement won’t let them get away with it.
Indeed; just reporting what the story says.
that’s not the photo I saw, the guy I saw looked like the unibombers brother.
Brian Williams is deeply saddened.
There is no “University of Boston”, there Boston University and Boston College, the latter a Jesuit institution. The Chinese grad student was at BU, not BC.
Interesting that the guy may have set the bomb off with a short time-delay, rather than a remote control. Possibly they were worried an unattended bag would be noticed.
African Americans have virtually no history of this type of violence so I’m going out on a limb and saying some type of foreign national.
Hmmm...a dark supremecist? We’ll never hear that.
If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it is a duck.
Saying someone is dark-skinned is saying something a lot broader than “African-American”.
There are many “hues” of dark, describing many kinds of peoples both in and out of this country.
The only thing I can take from the description is that the person IS NOT WHITE.
If Obama had a son, he’d look just like him.
Could this be this: I-S-L-A-M-O-F-A-C-I-S-T ?
OWS-type?
