"Pinging Regulator Country too because RC was also blaming the clerk."
I was joking on the other thread, but it appears you really ARE quite the passive aggressive one ... it was not a clerk, it was the owner's son. And, he failed to take any sort of action in the face of very suspicious behavior that we've been warned about for TEN YEARS. Had it not been for that plainclothes officer being there (and I am fairly certain now that his being there was no coincidence ), I seriously doubt any action at all would have been taken.
Ultimately nothing came of it, which is very fortunate. Reason being, in my opinion, because that little idiot with the bomb or bombs was under surveillance the whole time.
That may explain the apparently inexplicable lack of reaction on the part of the owner's son, assuming he was aware of the situation.
Why should he, when a POLICEMAN was on the scene, and he knew the POLICEMAN had already reported it? Shame on you. Passive aggressive my foot. Take your psychobabble and stuff it.
"Take your psychobabble and stuff it."
LOL. Excitable, too. Just take a deep breath and c-a-l-m d-o-w-n. There, doesn't that feel better?
Nothing exciteable about it. Just stating a fact. I had to capitalize some letters because it was apparent those particular facts had escaped your attention. Again, your psychobabble is not welcome--or even relevant.
"I had to capitalize some letters because it was apparent those particular facts had escaped your attention"
Perhaps if you'd actually read my reply to you, you would have realized that I said "That may explain the apparently inexplicable lack of reaction on the part of the owner's son, assuming he was aware of the situation."
What, in your perception, is the meaning of that statement?
One reply from you on that point, and please end this. I know it's my last reply to you on this particular thread. It's getting childish.
Please explain why he is "stupid" when there was a POLICEMAN in the store who had already reported it to the Norman POLICE? What more should he have done? What other authorities should he have contacted? Most people, when they see something or someone who looks suspicious, will call 911. That had already been done in this case. So what more should he have done to get him off your "stupid" list?
Possibly. Not the store clerk's fault though if Norman PD dropped the ball--or if the FBI dropped the ball.
