The car was all hopped up on methanol.
Is it true that if you drive by there your cell phone stops working ?
I didn’t think of the that. It sure is shaped like a bagged/rapped body... and I haven’t yet found a closer shot.
I agree...I was about to post the same thing about how it looks like a body before they mentioned that anyone had been killed. It may be a body...
looks like foot sticking out
“Picture of car after shooting. Witnesses say that the car was unarmed.”
Wheels up, Don’t shoot.
Car looks black & unarmed to me. Where’s Al Sharpton? Where’s Jesse Jackson? Has Eric Holder initiated an investigation? Has Obama said the guards “acted stupidly”?
With #wipers-up (don’t shoot!
NSA? OHHHH! I thought it said NASCAR!
I don’t know...it looks like there my be a foot sticking out???
LOL!
I wonder what they thought they’d accomplish. Did they really think they’d be able to just drive through there and wreck the place?
Maryland ping.
No, that is the correct place, I’m sure.
Somebody stated “Llewellyn” but that is a main drag in Ft. Meade itself with its own gate AIR. Not NSA property. This definitely has the look of the main entrance to NSA. Samford Rd.
I’m not sure if there are any “gates” to “ram” here. Pretty much just a checkpoint.
If they were dressed as women, that’s a disguise and I’d think they would want to sneak in, not ram anything.
Wheels up don’t shoot?
What is the poor vehicle to do...It doesn’t have any hands to put up!!!
Maybe they thought they could flash the "War on Woman" card and no one would dare stop them.
What were these people thinking? What the heck did they think they could do? What the heck was going through their heads?
For example, the Google view shows three lanes going through the checkpoint, with a parking area off to the side, while the helicopter views show no parking area, but four lanes through the checkpoint. And there are other changes in the roadway configuration as well.
So either there has been some very recent road construction around that gate, or perhaps Google is intentionally using old and outdated aerial photos at the request of the Fed Gov.
Not that anyone should be surprised that Google would selectively present untruthful information, but I don't know enough to be certain whether it may just be a date-of-last-image problem or something else.
BTW, we are probably looking at "Vehicle Control Point" (VCP) 6 located at MD 32 and Samford Road, referenced in passing in a planning document dated from 2011 at https://publicintelligence.net/ufouo-nsa-site-m-expansion-planning-documents/
Of course, now I'm gonna be flagged on some list for researching that.
