I find that strange also. Who would let a car registered in their name be driven off by a stranger? Weird. This is a perfect example, FBI knocking on your door. Like I said weird.

NY Daily News:

This “person of interest” bought the 1993 Nissan Pathfinder that was abandoned with the engine running - and with primitive, but potentially deadly payload in the rear - just two weeks ago, law enforcement and police sources told The Daily News.

Investigators aren’t certain whether he is the same man who drove the rolling bomb to the Crossroads of the World, but he has not been seen by his girlfriend - and has not shown up at his home or job - since the frightening incident on Saturday night.

Are you a white male?

If not, don't worry about it.

Yup, a small test. This was a joke, right? Insult?

German Lutherans?

Only if the "treasure trove of evidence in the unexploded car" included a hymnal, a casserole for that night's potlock, and a 5-gallon coffee maker.

Most Muslims have less than a year of formal education.

I think he wanted to start a fire that would then just blow up the propane tanks.

I'm sure they wont start asking for citizenship papers in NY over this. That would be so racist. Bloomberg would rather see the Empire state building collapse than ask for papers.

From ABC News:

Federal authorities are closing in on the man they say is a person of interest in the Times Square car bomb attempt this weekend, who is described as a naturalized American citizen who hails from Pakistan and just returned after spending five months there. Police release video of possible suspect seen near site of failed attack.

There is growing evidence the bomber did not act alone and had ties to radical elements overseas, with one senior official telling ABC News there are several individuals believed to be connected with the bombing and that at least one of them is a Pakistani-American.

If a car is over a certain age, it's not required that it have a title. We have bought and sold a number of cars without titles over the years.

Even without a title, a bill of sale is a good idea just to protect you from the county coming looking for a tag fee. But in the case of the county, all that's needed is an affidavit that you've sold the car. It's the buyer's responsibility to title the vehicle, not the seller's.

And if the car was sold at some earlier without a title, the owner may have only been able to GET a "scrap/salvage" title without a bill of sale or a title signed over to him. Do you know at what point in the chain the salvage title appeared?

I don't think this is necessarily some sort of scam. Naturally the perpetrator of a bombing would want a vehicle WITHOUT a paper trail, and he certainly wouldn't register it.

Real terrorists would never be that stupid /s

Like the '93 WTC bombing terrorist who rented the van using his real name and real credit card?

But less than 12 hours after the attempted attack, United States Senator Chuck Schumer was on my TV speculating that this was a “LONE WOLF” (code for EVIL WHITE MAN) and that it was highly unlikely to be connected to any foreign terrorist organizations. What do you have to say for yourself now, Chucky? Pathetic!
