Boy, this being a reporter stuff is harder than I thought. There's no new information here, but I thought freepers might be interested in a real live freeper's observations.

[DallasMike]

Excellent! This beats the CNN crap hands down. I'm not just nice because you're a Freeper -- you gave some very good and useful infromation.

[terilyn]

Very interesting actually. Thanks for the first hand report!

[rageaholic]

thanks for the close-up. In cases like these, the unremarkable is often what is so remarkable-- the "banality of evil".

If this is your first try at reporting you've done a great job. It's clear you are very observant and not shy about talking to the 'natives'. It is more than just a little strange that the family was all out of the country before the attack. What ever possessed you to go there yourself? Now that you've been there, what's your gut feeling on this guy?

[terilyn]

Ping for some great first-hand freeper reporting!

[Mike Darancette]

Boy, this being a reporter stuff is harder than I thought.

But you did it so well, I really got a feel for where the guy lived.

The parts about watching hate TV, the TV dish, and about last year's vacation WAS news to me.

Thanx

Great job!

[Rocketman]

Super job!!!!

If only reporter's would care as much as you do about getting the facts straight, and report what they actually observe instead of speculation.

You did terrific!!!!

[EaglesUpForever]

He said that he thinks Hadayet watched "hate TV" on his dish. .

That was the most interesting part for me, I wonder if this is conjecture or if he heard specifically that this was the case.

I'm convinced this is terrorism, the real question is what degree of organization was behind it.

Great job reporting!

If you'll remember a few months ago there was a guy that did some shooting outside the White House in Washington. The shooter was from Evansville, In., not to far from where I live and I went there to observe the happenings. It is kind of neat to see what happens when the cameras aren't on. Actually, it is not very exciting, but you get to meet some neat people.

Good job!

Question....was the police tape still up????

[csvset]

Omar would occasionally quit playing, saying he had to go home to play with his brother.

Had to face towards Mecca and pray?

[bvw]

Hooray! Very well done!

Boy, this being a reporter stuff is harder than I thought.

You did well :-)

The sticker ("Read the Koran") was not there, but there was evidence of it having been there, only recently removed. The entire backing of the sticker was still affixed to the door and it was the size of a small bumpersticker.

Now WHO removed this?

[lizma]

What a neat thing to do!

Thanks. Maybe you started a trend. "Our Freepers on the scene says..."

[dix]

Great job. Instead of a chicken in every pot, we have a FReeper in every neighborhood.

[BeAllYouCanBe]

Auntie, You forgot to cover the story from the politically correct perspective.

Poverty breeds contempt, contempt breeds hate, and hate breeds resentment. Resentment breeds disgust! Disgust breeds un-easiness. Terrorism is an natural outcome of uneasiness.(Well, the liberals have confused me on all this but you get the point.)

Given these "poverty stricken" conditions he liven in it is no wonder he chose terrorism!!

[TwoStep]

You did GREAT! I re-name you,
Brenda Star, reporter at large, for FR!
