The post is good, but you really piled on the "topics". This isn't Arizona related, so what's it doing in the topics list? You're abusing the state sidebars.

The media spin is just beginning. Soon you won't hear the words "muslim" or "black", all you will hear will be "gun control", "poor victim", "racist America", "religion of peace", "military background", etc. If the shooter HAD fit the FBI profile/composite, the media would be in a frenzy blathering on about "white separatist", "gun nut", "anti-government", "right-winger", etc.

Ah ha. I posted this earlier today on another thread:

Someone just posted about FoxNews now not showing photos of the "youth" - which post was pulled and not sure why. It got me thinking that the advocates will probably try to have this [church-going] youth tried as a juvenile so he will only spend one year in a juvenile detention facility. It would be cruel and un-American to charge him as an adult when all he was trying to do throughout this crime spree was get to school or church so he could continue with his science studies or choir singing.

Well, the vitim flip has started. Watch how they turn this into these two perps being victims.

Well then, we'll just have to keep reminding them that they are radical Islamist, American-hating cold blooded murderers, won't we.

NBC already is referring to Malvo as a Teenager

I agree about media spin - but doesn't a person who is 17 years of age qualify as a teenager? Why is this breaking news? Why all the keywords? Why not document, over an acceptable period of time, all the media spin and then sit down and write a detailed, well reference rebuttal?

I would not be at all surprised to hear that his (John Muhammad's) father was gay.

"a less than honorable discharge"

Fox reports that the Army is reporting that he received an "other than honorable" discharge - which is a legitimate type of discharge. Now as knowledgeable as the news media is regarding the media, I can understand how they would come up with "less than honorable" out of the true name.

We don't know if they shared the target practice on the unsuspecting or if only one of these men was the shooter.

I gleaned from the Montgomery, Alabama incident that Malvo was the shooter. Certainly, the state of Maryland has the option of trying Malvo as an adult--he is 17.

Are we certain that the Malvo and Mohammed have any familial relationship or do they just use that in order to get past people? Just how is Malvo Mohammed's stepson? I haven't seen any explanation of this connection, have you? Was this going to be a gay adoption in order to avoid deportation?

Final questions: How were these guys supporting themselves--shoplifting? They were apparently living in the car. How do you think that car smelled?

"You could tell he was scared," Norman said in an interview in Scotlandville, La. "He was very, very quiet. You could tell he didn't like the way he was living."

Miss Cleo? Is that you?
