I was wondering if it was AR15/M16 knock-off.

You're welcome. I don't know a darn thing about guns, just found it on Google.

They might as well not had one. I can't believe we waited all day and half the night for that.

Scratch Cochran - he said last night he is finished as a Defense Attorney and even if he wasn't he wouldn't touch this case with a ten foot pole.

You know, when our neighbor's child was murdered and they found the perp, they (cops, prosecutors, the mayor, you name it) did try to reassure us, but we were not reassured even though we knew he was behind bars. We were still fearful and that unease didn't leave until after the trial, his conviction and sentencing. Until we had that conviction, there always was that doubt: was he the right one? Could someone else be out there? How can we protect ourselves against a subhuman who's murder a child in her bed and stuff her body in a garbage can? It took quite a while before we could feel comfortable sleeping in our own beds. It didn't happen from one press conference, or two or three or ten, and platitudes from pols was the last thing we needed. What we needed was time and regaining the sense of security we had lost.

...MICHELLE MALKIN was the Guest being interviewed on the JOHN -&- KEN Show tonight that I quote. She is just INFURIATED over this threat to our National Security being ignored by the Liberal Seattle INS.

...Seems their Party's OVER...???

it was an effort to gain the confidence and/or sympathy of a black killer.

Very good points.

I hadn't thought of it, but if they suspected the killers were black (and Muslims, too), then having Chief Moose out front would help tamp down any anger from any communities directed against "the Man" picking on one of "their own".

Possibly.

Yes, I saw him the other night. Could it be that he has developed a conscience?

As I understand it she started wearing traditional dress a couple of years ago at his request. I'm trying to find out if he was raised catholic, wouldbe very likely in Louisiana . Can't figure out why he called a priest to complain.

...The days on NO ACCOUNTABILITY for the INS are now OVER.

I wish. From posts I've read in the past, they honor and reward incompetency. Doubt it's changed.

It's possible, he even said a week or two ago that he is no longer sure that OJ was innocent. Imagine that, OJ guilty.

Oh - We wanted meat! Stuff we should know we won't get! Plots, plans, names, Jihadi manifestos... Pictures of the gun hole in the car.... you know... the glitzy stuff!

LOL! We ain't gonna get that stuff. Not right now, anyway. But seeing the gunhole in the car would've been cool.

I hope Court TV covers at least one of the trials, but I will pass on the autopsy photos.
