MSNBC reporting sniper related digging and searching of a building in Tacoma WA. FBI is involved. May be related to something the sniper told police

I didn't know anyone wore that haircut any more.
That style is popular in Tacoma and in Lynnwood, WA too. In fact in every area surrounding Seattle.

Shep was chewing his butt out good too. That's exactly what I thought Shep should do to MR. KNOW IT ALL...lol!

C'mon Freepers, let's figure out who owns the house where the search is being done. Deborah and Chris live at 3309 S Proctor Street. Across is likely 3308, 3310 and 3312. 3310: Robert Holmes I can't find a 3308 or 3312. Anyone else know anything about this location?

This terrorist is homegrown, he's white, and he's young.

I thought that too, until a few minutes ago. Now they say they are going to search places all over the US. My newest theory therefore, developing as I type, is he's part of that US Islamist black muslim group they locked up they other week (one had been in the reserves) out on the west coast with some members in Detroit and with connections to Al Queda. Most of his islamist buddies are locked up, he's joined the group because he was psycho himself, but a follower, not a leader. He's now on his own and without direction, comes up with this wacko battle plan for single warrior jihad. Thats my theory and I'm sticking with it for at least five more minutes.

Well, they ARE serving other warrants!

You do not look for Bio agents in the ground with a metal detector.

Nuke agents, stored in lead, would be detected with a metal detector.

That would send a realy loud alert to the person operating the detector. (I know because a 12 pack of beer cans burried on the beach in Corpus Christi makes you think that you have found gold).

The person operating the detector, getting a really loud alert from his detector, would not flag and walk forward. It could be a mine.

While I am typing this, while watching FNC, it looks as if they are throwing swords on a tarp in the back yard.

Did you or anyone else see that?

"I believe James Ujaama tried to finance a terrorist like training camp down in Portland."

Maybe he's singing to save his own a$$...

[ConservativeMan55]

Could be the sniper phoning in this tip across the country, while LE is occupied elsewhere, he is allowed to move across the country and start another shooting spree?

[DoughtyOne]

Hey, Joe Dirt....

[mostlyundecided]

How could anyone practice in that yard?

You'd be surprised, but I agree, they shouldn't be but I have seen people do stuff like that, test a new gun out in the yard...maybe just shot it once, not something that happened a lot, which is why they would have expected to check the whole yard before finding a bullet casing.

[blam]

"how could anyone practice shooting in that yard? ....way too small..."

No kidding, with a .223.....very loud and very dangerous. Some of those bullets could go all the way through a house.

[swheats]

Fox News said there are a string of suspects involved in the sniper shootings. Sounds like an AQ terrorist conspiracy.

That could explain the terrorist angle. I was thinking the search warrants could be the different locations the Fort Lewis soldier was stationed. If all locations have the same bullet casings.

[TheLion]

Think they will visit every guy who ever fired a 223?...just kidding. Great theater going on here. Hell knows where this is heading.

[piasa]

Yeah, her verbal arse-whuppins are the stuff of legends...second only to FightingIrish's but Howlin's have a feminine cast to them... ; )

[floriduh voter]

What went into the U-Haul truck was much larger than shell casings. Maybe it was a trunk full of weapons or something. It was VERY BULKY. Size of a small size couch.

Is that a Samoan name?

[marajade]

I know... My husband thinks I'm getting paranoid... Man this is weird...

[Spunky]

I was just listening to our local Eastern Washington news. They said they are searching the backyard and tree for a shell casing where a former army soldier from Fort Lewis Washington used to live. He is no longer living there.

Sounds hawaiian or Somoan.

From the Portland Cell, I think this guy had been at Ft Lewis, where the guy who lived in this condo complex also was at one time:
* Jeffery Leon Battle : (aka Ahmad Ali and Abu Isa)     ex- Army reservist, trained in WA

Great Catch!
