Santa Monica Police Arrest Man With Explosives, Guns Going to L.A. Pride
Hollywood Reporter ^ | 12 Jun 2016 | Ryan Parker

It is unclear if a connection exists between the Orlando shooter and the man arrested by Santa Monica police.

Santa Monica police arrested a man who had explosives, assault rifles and ammunition and was planning to attend L.A. pride, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said Sunday morning during a press conference.

Police were called about the man who was in the area of Olympic Boulevard and 11th Street by a concerned citizen, Garcetti said. He told police he was waiting in the area for a friend.

The suspect was arrested Saturday night, Garcetti said.

Photos from the scene posted to social media by a reporter shows items from the suspect's car placed on the ground by police.

Police, suspicions of the man, checked his car and that is when they found the weapons and explosives, Garcetti said.

The suspect told police he was in town for the pride event in West Hollywood this weekend.

Any description or motive of the person arrested yet?

Amazingly- no.

Even if his name is Mohammed, they will still be clueless what his motive could have been.

I hate to say it, but one of the things that went through my mind was that some of the victims in Orlando almost surely worked for Disney World. It made me sad to think it, not gleeful.

If it was a white guy:

27 year old white man James Jones was arrested...

If it was jugears son:

27 year old Ganiquious Jones was arrested...

If it was a mad mo follower:

Is that accurate?

Gee, how many hours later and still no name....gee, I wonder....

It is almost a given now when they do not release names. It gives them time to scrub and get the propaganda people ready. Got to get a story straight! Look how Orlando got out of hand quickly even with the propaganda ready and two in one 24 hour period means it was planned and coordinated and there are probably more ready to go. People online just have not figured it out yet.

“Santa Monica police would not comment on the matter.”

I don’t approve of the gays (admitted perverts) and strongly disapprove of the idea of gay ‘pride’ events we are subjected to ~ but these are dead Americans, regardless.

The first ‘queer resident’ in the white house must take responsibility for the moslem invasion of our beloved Country. Does he love izlam more than homosexuals?

The spin on this will be something to see....

dfwgator @2: "No description of the perp. That tells me all I need to know."

Bingo! When the fifth-column leftist media doesn't say; they've said it.

This is a popcorn eating moment.

Liberal groups going after liberal groups.

I say just stay out of their way.

I’m betting there absolutely was a connection. Let’s see what information freepers can dig up.

Nowadays, no description is pretty much as good as a description...
