MSNBC reporting sniper related digging and searching of a building in Tacoma WA. FBI is involved. May be related to something the sniper told police

[lelio]

Yes. "The stump is on its way East."
You forgot about the speculation that this is the work of the Mexican Homosexual Mafia.

Bladders all over Freeperland will thank you!!

Maybe instead of HUGGIES, we should have FREEPIES, adult diapers with little gray elephants all over that turn pink when, well, you know...

I believe the stump is still in the garage at the Lakewood police station, south of Tacoma.

Damn, I live in Lakewood! Get that stump outta here before I tear it limb to limb!

The duplex is not exactly in high rent district, but I'd hardly call it some melting pot of diversity.

Thanks everyone for the help!! I just got home from choir practice so have not had the tv on very long. Y'all are great!

"BINGO!!!!! That is where the TERRORIST CAMP WAS!!!!!!!"

Yes, yes. I remember looking at the map for Marion because I had never heard of it. Terrorist Camp!!!

Can somebody summarize what has happened in the last hour in 20 words or less?

Certainly. (Dang it, it hurts when I zip up that fast...) - Authorities have searched a house in residential Tacoma, Washington, uncovered an unspecified packet and taken it away, unearthed a tree stump and taken that away as well. They are reportedly searching in Alabama as well.

Speculation on the thread makes the suspects out to be Hispanic ex-soldiers, Azatlan adherents, Native Americans, Taliban, al Qaeda, local Muslims, Koreans, and aliens from the planet Zoob.

It wasn't me. I swear it wasn't me.

???...NJ plates---?????

Huh?

[floriduh voter]

This is as creative as I can be at this time. BINGO! Now if you're right about the training base, does anyone know where that thread is?

[Diddle E. Squat]

I hear that there have been lots of rumors about the Marion Librarian.

preparing for jihad in marion, alabama

[mostlyundecided]

Found this about Marion, Alabama:

The past surrounds you! Marion Military Institute is down the road and is home to the Alabama Military Hall of Honor.

The people interviewed on Proctor Av. in Tacoma were a diverse group.....white, Pacific Islanders, Hispanic. So I would say it is a mixed neighborhood, like many in the Northwest.

See that is why it is hard for me to jump to any conclusions on who (ethnic group) they are going after. If it a diverse neighborhood you can't pinpoint one ethnic group as opposed to a mexican neighborhood, korean neighborhood, ect. But with this simeutaneous action going on across the country it seems more like terrorism then anything else. I could be wrong but who knows.

[TankerKC]

I stand corrected. That incindent was in Rutledge, south of MGM.

[vikingchick]

aliens from the planet Zoob.
LOL! Do crop circles figure into the equation?

[rbmillerjr]

Don't fret. The media will focus on the military connection.

If it were a white male, that would be the co-focus along with the military fanged wackjob.

One thing you won't hear is the hispanic left wing nutjob.

Hey, I have a neighbor and friend here in the DC area who is Hispanic -- I'm going to go kick his as* right now lol.

[El Gato]

Don't the shell casings fall on the ground next to the shooter?

Sometimes, sometimes not. My 7.62x51 H&K throws them about 30 feet to the front and slightly right of center. Still I'm sure you are right and they are looking for bullets imbedded in the stump.

[austingirl]

Will the media report this?
