Over on this thread

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1474647/posts

they are reporting that the story of the soldier having been shot has been confirmed by numerous sources and IS NOT a hoax (after some banter that it may be a hoax - the freeper that made the hoax assertion on that thread has since recanted the claim)

Personally I'm listening to the scanner link right now and it sounds as real as any other I've listened to, though I am no expert. I can't imagine how someone would/could go to the trouble to fake the scanner talk.

Yeah, if you're going to hoax it, you're going to put really juicy stuff on it. Cops talking about stolen DVDs, racist comments, etc. Not happening.

Thanks for the info, LR. I saw that the thread was pulled but then I saw that it was up again. I listened so carefully to the scanner talk and just couldn't imagine how anyone could make it sound like it did...sounded real to me. I'll tune in again tomorrow. For now, it's getting late 1:15 a.m. AK time, and it's way past bedtime.

Thanks again. :)
