While looking up your background, I realized that you might be able to help me, even though we disagree dramatically. I have been a member for a while, and have never figured out, or discovered how to contribute without compromising ID security. I'm not familiar with Pay Pal.

Geez, woke up as this is on my mind. Muhammed was stopped or found asleep in his vehicle on Oct 8th. His license was run etc and they let him go. But I can't find anywhere where it says that there were TWO people in the vehicle. Does anyone know??

If the cops had a "powder sniffin" dog, the dog would probably have gone beserk. Maybe we need more dogs. They have a "natural" gift and could also afford protection for our good guys.

We should think of some type of Amber Alert system also.

The paper that reported this is the Baltimore one. (Baltimore Sun, I think) they specifically mentioned that they found the same two guys asleep in the same car, at a rest area, nearer to Baltimore. The cops let them go because they were not white.

They apparently already have blamed this on BUSH:

NBC Does it Again and Uses Sniper Weapon on Bush

Simply amazing, simply disgusting.

"...I've read a couple years ago that the Roman second toe is longer than their big toe. What do you think????..."

I'd rather not think about something like that, thanks.

"...Is this a way to check for wimps? (Actually hard pressed to look upon Italians, Romans, as wimps, The French, maybe but not the Italians)..."

Well, wimposity is an equal opportunity affliction, it cuts across all ethnic, national and racial lines. The good news here is that, although you can't buy 'wimp test strips' at a pharmacy, wimp detection in any group isn't that much of a challenge.

All you have to do is look and listen... "You know 'em when you see 'em", to paraphrase the famous line by the judge challenged to define porn.

In fact, it's a sort of self-test... If you can't easily spot the wimps out there, that's a sign that you might be a wimp yourself.

"...Guess it chocks up to the fact their PM (i.e.President)seems to have some kahuna's (SP?) and says sensible things. Viva la Italia!!!..."

What are you trying to say here? Are you saying that he takes his liberal political opponents aside and offers them deals that they can't refuse?

Well, if that's true, the policy of the mayor of Montgomery enabled the snipers to go on to kill all the people in the D.C. area, when a different policy would have stopped them then, on Sept. 21. Can your mayor be persuaded for that reason to change his policy, or, if he does not, can it be made an issue against him?

If they're fall guys, will the sniping killings continue or not? If they do, they're won't be very effective fall guys. If they don't, why won't they? What can the government or whoever do to make sure that they won't?

That was taken in August, just afterwards they go over to the Montgomery Alabama area where they cold bloodedly kill one woman and wound another.

Muhammad and Malvo were apparently in Camden, NJ on Sept. 11, between those two events, to register the Caprice. I suspect they were also in Hillandale, MD on Sept. 14 to shoot the employee outside the liquor store. I wonder if the Caprice accompanied them on their travels.

There was an article from a paper on Jamaica posted on FR yesterday. While he was living on Jamaica, to age 13, Malvo's name was not John. He was Lee Boyd Malvo. He seems only to have taken the name John since hooking up with Muhammad.

Now back to worrying.... :)

Ahhh come on now, those in Washington would probably respond by saying, "Don't worry be happy :~) Like good little children...let us put on our intellectual thinking caps and dream up what what we deem is ideally "fit" for our subjects".

I have a similar take on that. When a government repeatedly ignores common sense while giving aid and refuge to those who want to do us harm I really have to wonder about the underlying agenda.

Get a hold of this reader at Barnes and Nobles entitled, Waiting For The Next Shoe To Drop: September 11 Prior Knowledge There's some info in there that'll make your jaw drop.

I missed that program but was watching MSNBC today where the authorities were questioning why the INS failed to do the job it was supposed to do in sending these illegals back to Jamaica. The INS claims these snipers have some due process due to the fact that they illegally came in without "inspection" process. Sounds to me like complete bs. Just throw these agents in jail. Aiding and abetting illegals is a felony.
