I think there has been a fair amount of discussion on FR about all of the theories, plus some of our own theories. They were not all about ME men. Its true that not many here would be surprised if it turns out to be ME terrorists. I don't think you can fault people for that considering the times.

Gus - Virgil has a very valid point - this is a discussion forum and I have seen the full spectrum of theories presented here. I opine you saw a few you did not like and assumed that all of FR was of the same mind. Additionally, as we were caught so unaware on 9-11, I would not discount the possibility that the sniper attacks are indeed terrorist acts initiated by Al-Qaeda or members of thier network. The bottom line is that we do not know - because one buffoon was discredited because he said it was ME terrorists has no bearing on the fact that it just might be. Personally, I have wavered between the looney home-grown nutcase theory and the terrorist. No one here has the answer as of yet - and if they did they most certainly should not be posting it here...

I get your point, Dave. And I have no problem with any of the theories, conspiratorial or otherwise, that FReepers have been putting forth over the last couple of weeks. I guess I've just grown weary of some of the REAL racism and bigotry that some people here are so quick to express even when they don't know any of the relevant facts. But, hey, it's a free country and this IS Free Republic, after all, ehh? :-)

P.S. And you and I both know that the metro DC area is a PC town, whether we conservatives like it or not. That's just the way it is, but, at least we have the Constitution to defend our rights, too.
