CNN now reporting that the letter threatens children. CNN is now giving that information out...the investigators asked them NOT TO RELEASE THE INFORMATION. The news media is now releasing the information :) Police say DONT DO IT...news media DOES IT. Oh well...we now know why the schools are shut down.

Perhaps one of the things that will be "murdered," if you will, during this gawd awful frenzy is the little bit of credibility the press/media had with the general public.
One can hope.

So why did Moose (or his "task force") give it to them in the first place?

Police say DONT DO IT...news media DOES IT.And exactly what do the police have to show for all there "tight-lipped" cryptic messages and denials?
I'll answer that: fear, wild speculation, and distrust of law enforcement. It's time for a sea change in this case, and a leader who can engage the public not as sheep to be led to the slaughter, but as a nation focused on combating terrorism, whether domestic or foreign.
Fear is useless if it doesn't lead us to action.
