I don't want to post the spew from the boycott site here, but Michael's is owned by the Wyly family, Bush supporters and owners of Green Mountain energy. They are currently the target of environmental groups:

Boycott Green Mountain: All in the (Wyly) Family

For a list of environmental whackos involved:

Boycott Green Mountain.com

Coincidentally, “Green Mountain” is the name given by the Palestinians to a contested Jewish settlement, the Jabal Abu Bhneim project at the northern entrance to Bethlehem to be called “Bethlehem, ISRAEL,” according to this article on al-bushra.org:

"Green Mountain" must not become "The Mountain of the Wall."

Pure speculation, doesn't prove anything, but interesting.

The Michaels of Bowie fire was started by kids playing with fire in the glue/solvent section. It was a Sunday over the summer. The store was gutted -- traffic was hell on 197 that day. The store has since re-opened.

The Wal-Mart and the Michaels are about a mile apart. The Michaels is off of MD 197, the Wal-Mart is on US 301.

I think the highway with the cloverleaf interchanges is US 50.

She spluttered, "but can't you just dial 911?"

Another example of someone that doesn't "get it".

Bullet fragmented....AS PER FOX.. Bullet mushroomed in the child..

Bingo

High-velocity round...

If no one saw a shooter, it was likely a long gun.

My money's styill on .223

[tomkat]

fragmentation of the bullet once it enters the body.
many/most bullets are designed to do precisely that, in order to maximize stopping effect ...

[Peach]

You heard that, too, re spokesman mentioning anthrax. Very telling.

[epow]

They have not found any casings yet

Then how do they know it's a .223? there are a dozen or more centerfire .22's rounds that can fire the same bullet as the .223. If they have a recovered bullet or some fragments they could determine if it's a military .223 or the Russian .22 caliber military round, but if it's a commercial .22 bullet it could have come from any one of many different .22 centerfires.

Could it just possibly be that the MD cops are playing up the .223 angle for the purpose of further frightening the sheeple about evil black rifles? MD government is very anti-gun, so I wouldn't put it past them.

What, another "happy face" anarchist?

Everytime Williams comes on, I send FNC an email. No replies yet. I'm not surprised, they don't reply to my rants about Geraldo.

Pretty sure they've got solid ballistic evidence for .223

Call me crazy but let's just call the deliberate killling of innocent people a terrorist attack. The snipers are not idiots and in all probablity will not get caught. If these killings happened in Jerusalem would they going around telling the citizenry that we are "withholding judgement" until we gather more facts? I don't think so. We are in the midst of a war, so let's not be surprised if this is terrorist activity. Time to hunker down and protect ourselves.

[stuartcr]

Absolutely true. To defend yourself against an unknown, random, long range shooter, would be very difficult.

[r9etb]

AS PER FOX

How is Fox getting this information? The kid's still in surgery -- who'd be willing or able to talk to reporters.

The needle on my BS meter is starting to twitch.....

[texasbluebell]

I will bet cash money it is terrorism and they are holding off to avoid panic. He begs parents to let the dismissal be orderly and not to panic.

Yep, it's crowd control, I'm certain we'll find it out at some point. But they'll wait till a number of weeks have elapsed so we don't panic.

Just like the LAX shooting, which took weeks to be called terrorism. They just wait for the hysteria to die down.

I'm getting really tired of this way of dealing with it too.

[maximus@Nashville]

She spluttered, "but can't you just dial 911?"

Yes, "Stop or I'll dial!" has averted many senseless killings.

[Miss Marple]

Hospital spokesman discussed the X-rays.

[stlnative]

MSNBC is reporting that is was a SINGLE shot to the 13 year old boy.

[Sacajaweau]

Yes, there's a similarity...not a lot of "kill" but a lot of chaos and fear.

Take credit...They are getting the credit everytime there's a press conference and something is shut down (economy).

The Yemeni Oil tanker has now been "concluded" as alqueda (and it sent oil prices up).

The guy that shot the mayor in France was shot by a muslim.

The parachutes were sabatoged by ???

Michael might be a code word...Mall might be a code word...Who knows but their codes are likely "simple".

The Media is the Message carrier!!

Do you all remember last week's Wash. Times tidbit about targeting malls, schools, etc.? Wonder if these incidents is what they were referring to?
