Time for a brief recap:

Two men wanted for questioning in the deadly sniper attacks were arrested early today in western Maryland in a car with New Jersey license plates (nda-217) obtained in Camden on the one-year anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks

Edmond Bonnette, agent at the state Motor Vehicles office at 2600 Mount Ephraim Ave. in Camden, said the car was registered at 8:52 a.m. on Sept. 11, 2002. "At 9 a.m., we had a bomb scare," Bonnette said. "The police said it was called in from a phone booth on Kaighn Avenue. We had to evacuate everyone."



17 years then a name change after 9/11.
Williams/Muhammed wasn't a military sniper. He was a PFC mechanic and Gulf War veteran.
Muhammed served as a bodyguard for The Reverend Louis Farakan during the million man march.

FOX reporting John Malvo not really John Muhammed son. Fox said he was only introduced as his son. Not the son. Maybe they are saying he is the stepson.That he was not his real son was reported VERY EARLY and misintrepreted in a 20 questions scenario.. The early report said "adopted him" as his son or some phrase like that. I think it came from his ex-wife or a friend of hers.....Something like that.

Mohammed and Malvo met when they both were living in homeless shelter last year in the Sea/Tac area.

There are 2 exes that we know of, the one in Louisana and the one in Maryland. The female in NJ is a girlfriend.

Apparently Mohammed is from Baton Rouge but moved away years ago. She said she saw him for the first time in many years this past August, said he and Malvo were in town to visit his brother who is married to his ex-wife's sister.

I fear we are doomed due to the PC world in which we live

It's so infuriating that I can't even watch anymore. They are still calling him a serial killer. They are making it out to be about his military service when it's really about his service to ISLAM and his hatred of Americans. He viciously shot a young boy. He shot women in the back. He murdered fathers going about their day. Where is the outrage? I want this fully investigated and I want to hear from Tom Ridge and John Ashcroft.

thanks, Kim...

this is another thought that goes along with my post #634 on this thread concerning two black males in a white truck with Alabama tags this morning at my kids' busstop.

tea bags started showing up on stop signs a few days ago.

the police have sent out a cruiser....couldn't find the vehicle. FBI tipline took all information.

didn't get a good look at the guys....it rolled by slowly...then turned the corner...then we saw the BAMA tags.

"Barf Alert" should always come after ANYTHING Pat Brown says. HER FIRST blabbing was "some gun nut with Guns&Ammo magazines in their house and that neighbors need to call cops on their neighbors
