It's an extra credit project by some lefty anti-war protester.
Instead of 72 virgins he gets an A for the semester and his name in the obituaries.

Bomb Threat at a Local Car Dealership

LOS ANGELES — A man claiming to have a bomb entered the Felix Chevrolet dealership in southwest Los Angeles today, leading to a standoff with police.
The incident began about 10 a.m. at Figueroa Street and Exposition Boulevard and was still in progress early this afternoon, said Los Angeles police Lt. Horace Frank.

The building was partially evacuated, and a police bomb squad was sent to the location, which is near the USC campus, Frank said.

There were no immediate reports of injuries.

What I'm MORE concerned about is the backlash against all the "peaceful" islamics living in the US. "Peaceful" could possibly become "pieces".....

It's not like muslim teachers of the whaddis sect aren't teaching american kids (muslims) in their schools all over the USA to hate America. They teach these kids what the koran tells muslims to do to infidels and, as is obvious to the most casual observer, it ain't purty.

"Chaos and fear" in this country? Hmmmmm! How 'bout "cowboys and muslims"? In other words, I share your apparent concern about what will happen in this country if some dumb islamic pulls such a stunt here!! The downside is enormous!!

Stay vigilent, stay armed, and never trust a muslim or a liberal! Both are terrorists, differing only in weaponry and technique!

" ... prevent a suicide bomber from accomplishing his deed? "

You are allowed to come to the defense of others. So size up the situation. Then act accordingly. Take a CCW course they will fill you in about what you can/should do in your state.

[Djarum]

How does this happy circumstance prevent a suicide bomber from accomplishing his deed?

Armed citizens have stopped suicide bombers in Israel.

Exposition Boulevard

Shouldn't that be Explosion Boulevard?

[John H K]

It's very hard to push a detonator button when your brains have been ventilated.

So people should start blazing away at everyone whose clothing seems a little bit too bulky?

Or do suicide bombers announce "I am a suicide bomber, I will set off my bomb in 30 seconds?" Help me out here.

Actually, a PITTSBURG t-shirt is more likely..

No, I'm not in the mood to play PC games.

Uh, yeah.

OK, I've sized up the situation. There's a guy in a jacket, and he just put his hand into a pocket.

So I'm supposed to cap anyone fitting those criteria?

[TC Rider]

Assume that the state not only allows concealed carry, but mandates it of every single adult who is not physically disabled from shooting a firearm (blindness, inability to move arms/hands, et cetera).

How does this happy circumstance prevent a suicide bomber from accomplishing his deed?

Last year in a Israel supermarket, a bomber set off a small bomb, meant to attrack a larger crowd so he could then set off his BIG bomb. A woman shopper pulled out her concealed handgun and blew his brains out.

There have been other cases as well, where a bomber has given himself away before the bomb goes off.

Next question please.

Oh please, you're not "concerned" about a backlash, you fantasize about it.

Chevrolet? That explains and fully justifies the terrorist act!

His "warranty" had expired no doubt

Anyone else remember the movie, Breaking Out, with Michael Douglas. His series of violence started in a convenience store where he thought he was overcharged for something, then when the clerk at Wammyburger told him he couldnt have breakfast because it was past 10:30 am, he pulled out the heavy artillery. Great movie!!!!!!!

Translation: "I blew it bigtime in my argument, and I hereby surrender."

The bomb squad should have detonated the man just to be safe (that's what they would have done with a mysterious abandoned package).

Oh no! Al Queda is trying to take away our right to buy crappy cars!

Sounds like loser former employee with the ol' vest of wired hotdogs.

Boy, most of the posters on this thread will be disappointed.

Actually, it was "Falling Down."
