That's what they have been saying all morning and last night that they acted alone. They also said they never went to the Ground Zero camp and had no link to Al-Qaeda.

I was referring to the cop on Fox. Sorry if I was unclear but I've been up since 4:30 am. I think he reflects the thinking of all the experts and media types that we -the public-should not be jumping to conclusions about any connection between snipers and terrorists groups.

[Quilla]

WOW! Thanks for the post. I, like many detectives in the books I read, don't believe in coincidences.

[tomkat]

i'd like to be wrong about that part, but am inclined to agree ...

[Elenya]

So clever in their planning and getaways at shootings and they are found asleep in a rest area in Maryland?!. Doesn't compute.

That's what my husband said: they were set up. I don't know what to think. It looks like they did the alabama shootings, though.

Secret Service agents with their weapons drawn detained a man on Thursday on the White House grounds between the fence surrounding the complex and the north entrance to the president's residence

WOW .. first I heard of this

[Sunshine55]

Take the day off like I did! I honestly could not go to work today when this stuff is far more important to me as an American citizen than anything I had to do sitting in cubicle hell. That and the fact that my temper flares everytime I have to 'splain what's going on to some of my co-workers who really don't want to know, as long as THEY aren't affected. The problem is...they ARE.

Freedom fighters accused in alleged shootings.

What the....?!?!?!

Easy. Look at Checnya(sp) and what is going on with Moscow right now. Chechyna, or any of these militant muslim groups located around the world think of themselves as freedom fighters. Even that MATAH site I linked to, talked about gaining their freedom.

"this bellingham cop on fox is full of shit. what a PC joke - 'no involvement with any group ... acted on their own ...'"

He's "SHOWBOATING"

[CodeJockey]

Just speculation I'm sure, but a report I heard on the radio stated that the two perps may have been taking turns doing the shooting. Having a contest to see which one could out do the other.

No doubt if this is true, they are the devil personified.

[dinasour]

Washingtion state official on FNC: "We are safe. There is no risk"

I glad you're so sure of that. I'm not.

[twigs]

At this point I am no longer discounting any possible linkages among the leftists who are at war with the USA.

Nor do I. I am beginning to suspect that these loose cannons are being used by others to carry out their plans to destroy the US--and other western nations that practice capitalism and believe in western-inspired values.

[fight_truth_decay]

Have been looking for this guy since Sunday..computes to ne with the NJ tie.

[Merovingian]

Regarding firearm...msnbc says a rifle was found in the car..Bushmaster BRAND..

[TexKat]

I was referring to the Happy Bellingham Day!

[areafiftyone]

He may be show boating but that is what Moose Man said last night too.

[berkeleybeej]

Waiting for the obligatory picture.

[fight_truth_decay]

yes

[ET(end tyranny)]

An individual black male came over the fence on Pennsylvania Ave. and was taken into custody by Secret Service uniform division officers and is currently being interviewed by agents from the service."

Wonder if he was 'muslim'?

[Elenya]

as long as THEY aren't affected. The problem is...they ARE.

You're absolutely right. But then again, you're a FReeper and they aren't. :o)
