The thing that gets me is that 30 minutes after it happened the FBI said "nothing to see here..bla bla bla" despite the note supporting bin laden.

That's the most disturbing aspect of this story. What will we find out tomorrow? That he was befriended by a member of al qaeda?

Same with the recent AA's crash in NY. The whole scene was obscured by thick black smoke and gov types are reassuring us that the crash was not terrorist related.

ATTENTION gov types if you lurk here. It's better to say nothing than open your fat traps and reveal what idiots you really are.

Please humor me, exactly what is the government gaining by keeping these terrorist attacks secret from everyone?

I think this kid and his actions had nothing to do with Bin Laden, personally. This kid was a hopeless, but not harmless, twerp.
