IT IS time to suspect the unthinkable and the suspicion is this: This city has been paralyzed by terrorists.
Terrorists working for a foreign organization that wants to destroy our country.
There are credible experts who believe that a war has been visited on our breakfast table.

You sound as bright as Katie Couric when you post drivel such as this.
"Maybe it's not al Qaeda, but it is in sympathy with them."
Larry was talking with a little edge in his voice.
"I keep on hearing these experts on television say that terrorists always leave their calling card, taking credit for their monstrosities. Wrong.
"Fact: From 1990 to 1999, there were 3,400 terrorist attacks throughout the world, mainly against the Western world.
"Fact: Some say 10 percent of those terrorist attacks are ones that some group took credit for.
"Fact: I believe it is about 1 percent that took credit. You take credit way after the fact. There are some terrorist groups that take credit for some things they didn't even do."
The atrocities in Washington, Yemen, the Middle East and Asia, he believes, are all connected.
"We have a French tanker blown up in Yemen. We have an American Marine killed in Kuwait and there is yet another shooting against our Marines.
"There is that horrific bombing terrorist attack in Bali, Indonesia.
"This is all happening at the same time the sniper is stalking D.C. and its suburbs.
"Hello?"
Larry Johnson ping.
There is another reason, I believe: The authorities are uncertain of their ability to protect the Muslim Communities from American counter-terrorist activities. It is these Muslim Communities that are providing shelter to these terrorists. Even with a $500,000 reward, they refuse to provide information.
If you ever see an old copy of this:
...pick it up- it's old, but you will amazed at how the alphabet soup terror/liberation groups are connected, and how long they have been around...
Dang, quit reading from your DNC political operative handbook.
I would think it is overdue for the sheep to fight back.
First, poison the world drug supplies so the users die and the pushers go out of business.
Second, topple the Saudi monarchy and occupy the Saudi oil fields.
Third, if first and second don't work.......try plan B.
Me, as well.
I concur.....and the fact that, IMO, American nuts don't kill kids unless they target kids (i.e., child molestors, etc., which, then, are going after a "target group").
Or maybe it's just some disgruntled FR poster who dislikes the NRA and wants to make them look bad. About the same level of evidence exists for both theories.
I agree: RECON. See how the public reacts, how our police respond, what their methods are, how likely leaks occur to the media (and about what), whether or not the MILITARY would get involved. They have gained a wealth of info. to "improve" their tactics to use in other cities, etc.
I recall about 6 months ago, there was a thread about RECON OF FIRE DEPARTMENTS by M.E., and a memo went out to all Fire Departments in New York, NOT TO GIVE OUT any info about how they respond to emergencies, equipment used, etc. Did you see that thread, does anyone remember it?
There are different accounts of its precise wording. I don't think we'll know exactly what it said until we see a reproduction or photo.
I think it was Nix 2 who said on a thread yesterday that the card has a message on its back that is written in German. That's presumably where it requested not releasing the info. I wonder if it also contained a threat to the government.
Let's refine that possible terrorist scenario:
"It is a diversion - tie up all law enforcement by drawing them out to the periphery of the Washington area and then hit the real target in central DC...."
Like Larry J -- and most of you -- I smell a terrorist strategy in this one.
TXnMA (No Longer!!!)
