...for 'balding white man in his 40s'

Federal investigators are on the ground at the scene where an 'improvised explosive device' detonated Tuesday next to the Colorado Springs chapter of the NAACP. The blast happened about 10:45am outside a barber shop next door to the group's building, which is about an hour south of Denver. Eyewitnesses said they heard a 'loud boom' as the improvised device, which was placed next to a can of gasoline, went off. The contents of the can didn't ignite, federal officials said.

I was cutting somebody's hair and I heard the explosion,' Gene Southerland, who owns the Mr. G's Hair Design Studio in the same building, told the Denver Post. 'It was such a loud explosion that some plastic containers fell off the shelf.' Police say no injuries were reported. FBI spokeswoman Amy Sanders says it's not known yet whether the explosion was an accident or not or whether it was aimed at the nation's oldest civil rights organization. The extent of the damage from the explosion wasn't immediately clear Photos of the scene don't show any visible damage to the barber shop building. inside the NAACP office, volunteers say the explosion was enough to knock things off walls, the Gazette reported. .

It very well have been a friend of Sharpton. Even a honky friend of Sharpton. An Ayers type.

Blamed on a white Christian Tea Partier until they find out it’s a black atheist communist. That’s when the story dies.
Reminds me of a shooting that occurred in Greenwich Village about 25 years ago. Badlands, a notorious gay nite club in the West Village was shot up by some psycho. In a 48-hour cycle the media frenzy started. First it came out that the father of the shooter was a chaplain, then the media really started going crazy when it came out that his father was a POLICE chaplin...until his mug shot was plastered on the front pages of the Post and Daily News the perp was a BLACK guy, OK the show's over nothing to see, move on...

Oh how the Establishment Media would love to pin this incident on the TEA Party!

Couldn't have been. Why, you say? Because it wasn't successful.

The article says barber shop as well as hair design studio but the picture shows a beauty shop and the names on the beauty shop don’t match with Mr. G’s. More stupid reporter tricks.

Smells like an set up from the Can’t Breathe crowd.

Ok, so the blurred out building between the barber shop and the beauty shop is the NAACP. What does the NAACP have to hide?
