10 million...cheaper than I expected.

Cool Hand Luke...   What we have here is a failure to communicate.

Have you seen how many replies within this thread are related to issues dealing with electronic communication rather than matters that address a way to comply electronically?

....and as far as I can tell, this is the definitive thread dealing with the latest comments by Moose to whomever........and the quote isn't even close to be accurate.

....and other than a few pathetic souls, nobody else seems to care.

They should give them a canoe and point them in the direction of Mecca.

      much more humane than my thinking was.

I hadn't noticed whether the thread content was sticking to the title.   I *do* see your point about accuracy. Does Report Abuse requesting a correction (on the first post) not work?

LOL! Thanks GirlShortstop for the pic.
OK, hole_in_one, does this help?

[Balata]

Yep, I've read every reply on this thread. I came to it late or I would have jumped in earlier to give you some close in air support.

LOL!

Looks like you're one of those racist jerks who sees a black guy and automatically assumes "affirmative action."

First of all who are you to attack me by calling me a racist. Second of all one of my best friends is black. Why don't you look at Moose's record there are plenty of ways you can access that information. If you do not think that he got his position on affirmative action then so be it. There is a difference between earning a job and getting handed a job. Racism has nothing do do with it. If a person is a moron then I will call them a moron.

    nice to see you smile!

This is the Mayor's take on how Moose left the PPD.

"In 1999, with the input of a diverse group of 18 local citizens to screen candidates, completed a local and national search process to hire Mark Kroeker as Portland’s new police chief after Charles Moose resigned to take a position in Montgomery County, Maryland. In appointing Chief Kroeker, gave special recognition to Lynnae Berg for excellent service as acting chief following the resignation of Chief Charles Moose.

This is how I remember it.

The Admin Mod was *pinged* and directed accordingly to the specific posts detailing the issue....that should have sufficed.

Abuse Button.

I am sorry that I am not as superior as you in writing. I was not aware that I was being judged on my sentence skills. You see when I write fast I simply write down my thoughts. I've been on Free Republic for a while and didn't know there were such nice people to pick apart my posts grammatically. Next time I'll use spell check so arrogant people like you won't have any ammunition to attack me.

Oh and make sure you get your English book to grade my post.

This is a state (foreign) run terror program. People need to stop being so myopic and look at this for what it is. ME terrorists. Wake up USA.
      I agree. I think the demand for money is collateral to the original intent

Agreed. These snipings are so horrific... the prospect of it *not* being terrorist/s and just some "lunatic" who went over the edge boggles my mind.    When I see evil like this I recall the feeling of incomprehension watching those jets on September 11th.

When he said electronically, I immediately thought about a wire transfer of money...hmmmm.

Me too, but not one of the news channels picked up on this or even mentioned it!! They continued to think it was about communication, but how can it be when they are already in communication with the sniper? I sure hope they aren't dumb enough to hand this sniper any $$$$$$$!!!!

Your post #55 has been removed.

.....at least the Mod Squad pays attention to you!.

Re: comply

Of course many have been bearing this in mind as they dutifully read through the whole thread. Communication isn't the problem because they've been doing that: he can leave another letter, they can answer via tv. If he wanted to make another phone call he could without worrying about its being traced immediately, because if he can fire a weapon and escape detection then surely he can make a brief call from a payphone and get away safely. "Compliance" means he wants them to do something for him. Wiring funds? I can't see how it's possible to move a lot of money anywhere now, with the FBI etc. already poised, and guarantee that it can't be traced. Moose said "can't comply electronically", suggesting they could go about it some other means, so maybe he wants (as someone has hinted a few miles back up there) them to broadcast some nutty message of his live or something and they're trying to steer him toward submitting another hand-written manifesto.
