From Staff Reports
NORMAN -- An explosion near the University of Oklahoma's Gaylord Family-Memorial Stadium killed one person Saturday, OU officials said.

The explosion happened at the courtyard near the George Lynn Cross Hall, Botany-Microbiology Building on OU's campus, which is west of the stadium, according to Sgt. Gary Robinson of the University police department.

The explosion happened during the second quarter of Oklahoma's game against Kansas State.

After the explosion, police set up a perimeter of several blocks and made fans exit the stadium to the east.

I was watching the MSM coverage of the Murrah Building - all day long as I was home with a toddler and an infant at the time. I kept switching back and forth between the 3 networks and I remember well how the story changed in the first few hours - first 3 people... finally ending with McVeigh's capture and him being indicted alone. It was that day that I "woke up" and realized the MSM indeed lies at times. It was quite a shocking day and I remember thinking to myself how could they ignore what they just reported and buy the officials' bait hook line and sinker! I was 23 at the time, and I was still under the illusion that the stuff I'd learned in journalism class about integrity, being un-biased, questioning all sources, and getting to the bottom of the story was followed by ALL reporters.

I am also somewhat familiar with Waco and Ruby Ridge. In fact, I found the book "No More Wacos: What's Wrong With Federal Law Enforcement and How to Fix It -- by David B. Kopel, Paul H. Blackman" at a library sale a couple months back and just read through it - fascinating stuff in there. I've read other reports as well as talked to others who have investigated it in depth and there is so much that's not spoken of. Even if it is to try and debunk theories I think they should at least consider the possibilities in all of these events! Of course, then they would find that most of it is the truth...

It's sickening really the way this stuff has all come about and how much the average American is oblivious to - perhaps that is a good thing though in a way. Some people (most) have a hard time taking the "red pill" - survival mechanism I guess. Part of me wishes I could go back to the days when I was blissfully ignorant but it's like they say - you can't turn back time.

"I guess I'd rather be a safe 'crackpot conspiracy theorist' than dead."

I hear you there...

It needs to be finished, no matter what it takes, no matter how long. I agree with your post, and especially with this part.

It is a pity that Clinton and his minions sought to make political hay out of incidents which should have met with reprisal, just another part of the legacy.

His apologists in the MSM did diddley squat to make the American people aware of the significance of the events you listed, and helped whitewash things all too often.

Do any of you have a link for Alamo Girl's Fact File page? I remember seeing it several times before, but I'm having trouble finding it tonight.

Is this what you are looking for?

It's eerie- I've had more inquiries about A-G's marathon compilliation in a few days than I've had for years.

As I mentioned here:

-Time to kick the tires & light the fires, folks- terrorism gathers across the World...--

When World War One began, it was said "All across Europe, the lights of civilization are being extinguised. We shall not see them relit in our time..." I suggest that now a somewhat opposite process is being started- first one fire of terrorism, then another is being lit- the question is, can we put them out?

Anything is possible if it's God's will through the power of prayer and hard work.

In the end, good will triumph over evil.

"In the end, good will triumph over evil."

I'm confident that this is true.

However, rest assured that evil won't go down without a vicious fight to the bitter end.

Good will triumph over evil, but not by default.

A remote-controlled device, eh? PhiKapMom was indicating as much.

This again confirms a large operation. There is NO WAY on earth that Hinrichs was acting alone. And, that's exactly what we were saying from day 1.

Good morning.

I'm still ticked off about the information you gave me about the Republican Guard. I've been trying to learn more about it. Specifically, what were they thinking?

I found this article, which I found interesting.

Interesting that after the explosion in Norman on SATURDAY, an unknown Homeland Security official called his kids on MONDAY and told them to stay off the NYC Subways for the NEXT TWO WEEKS until the plot is stopped. And the NYC press doesn't go public with the plot until THURSDAY.

See the following link:

http://gopandthecity.blogspot.com/2005/10/security-threat-nyc.html

"I got this email forwarded to me on Tuesday (10/4/05) from a coworker. I sent it on to Snopes and some other NYC Bloggers as a potential hoax. Look who's not laughing now.

I do not send out mass emails as games or jokes so PLEASE take this seriously. As some of you know my father works for HomelandSecurity, at a very high position and receives security briefings on a daily basis. I received a call from him Monday Oct 3, 2005 and it was a brief call and did not contain a lot of details. The only information that I can pass on is that everyone should at all costs not ride the subway for the next 2 weeks in the major areas of NYC, that means Grand Central, Times Square, Herald Square, Union Square areas. I know that seems crazy but do take his advice if at all possible. I am not at will or able to discuss anything more than that. I was not allowed to ask him any questions but he called with grave concern for the safety of myself and Heather. He said I could tell friends exactly what I have said above and that is it.
I am sorry that I cannot give any more details. He also said that he would inform me as soon as the threat at hand has passed and when we can go back to normal life.
Best wishes,
-------Name witheld-----"

Thanks a lot, jimbo123. Now, there is little doubt that Hinrichs was connected to a larger Islamic bombing plot.

Pinging PhiKapMom, hispanarepublicana, Rte66, and LibertyRocks. Check out jimbo123's post. Very interesting connections, don't y'all think so?

I've been out of pocket and will be mostly out of pocket the next couple of days.
Has anyone posted the story that includes text from Boren's latest "open letter"? All about not rushing to judgement based on color, religion, blah blah blah....then goes on to say that people were wrong about the OKC bombing being the work of ME terrorism?

It deends on the moon sightings....there is always confusion in the muslim/terrorist world because different mullahs interpret the moon differently (no wonder they are moonbats!!). According to some, Ramajustdamn started yesterday and according to others, on Oct. 04.
