"Pat Brown is on MSNBC - saying she was not suprised at all Mohammud fits the profile ...blah, blah, blah"

You know, I remember a lot of profilers saying this guy would turn out to be an angry WASP, but I don't remember even one saying it would turn out to be multiple angry Black Muslims.

That's because I wrote the dam* tip number on my belly with a permanent marker.

Any suggestions??

Acetone, heptane, and 2-propanol, maybe?

Details coming up on the contents of the blue Caprice. Bet they find beer cans, a 223, maybe drugs, blankes, and fast food trash, and dirty clothes.........

Again, trained, sophisticated terrorist, these guys were not......

AND THAT'S THE PROBLEM!!!! In Buffalo, they had a rally for the "alleged terrorists" and were willing to put up their houses as bail money.

However, to date, the $600,000 bail for the one can get out on bail has not been met.

Looks like a few of them folks changed their mind but going inside and locking the door does nothing to help the situation.

THEY have the best chance of weeding these radicals out of their groups.

HELP NEEDED from any FReepers who live near any of the shootings:

this is a long-shot and quite possibly may require a tin-foil hat, but......do any of you living near the shootings remember seeing tea bags taped to stop signs?

This could apply to anybody, really.....but I have reasons to ask particularly about the Aspen Hill, Silver Spring, Falls Church areas.

Thanks.

On the face of all this he does seem to be the leading candidate for Darwin Award accolades, doesn't he? But I have serious doubts about this entire scenario.

For a couple of weeks, he's acted with total impunity. He's killed, showed an amazing amount of skill and stealth. He's pretty much done what he wanted to do, the guy was almost like smoke. Suddenly, he started getting stupid and sloppy? Hell he might as well have hung a sign around his neck advertising the fact that he's the guy. I really have a concern about this.

I realize conventional wisdom would say he just got very arrogant about his success and it gave him a false sense of empowerment to do whatever he wanted. Sorry, but I don't buy this at all. It's clear he's had professional training and he's good at what he was doing. People like that just don't turn stupid overnight.

I'm not trying to start an argument over this at all, just expressing my concerns.

Okay FReeper who said the back seat folded down and the killer shot from the vehicle, TAKE A BOW. They are announcing this on MSNBC. The car had a trap door in it, back seat folded down, guy shot through the car.

I took a run to the store because listening to Beck just isn't the same when not in the car...last thing I hear him say again was "do not be fooled...our lives changed last night every bit as much as they did on 911"...you can bet this is just a small chapter in a very big book. Someday, I'm gonna find myself a man like Glenn Beck!
