You have to be an industrial strength duma$$ to speed if you are up to no good — especially in that part of the country.

lol. You have to be an industrial strength duma$$ to go back to the van rental agency to request the deposit back from the van you just blew up under the WTC in 1993 as well.

These people may be thuggish, cowardly and vicious, but they're not real bright ;)

Thank You for the information. I had not seen anything. I appreciate your efforts. I might add a vague update, and I know that is not your fault. It would help if more information was released or perhaps more information has been release and it was only to intelligence gatherers and LEO.

No nationalities.

Noticed that. If it were white men, that information would have already been released, along with their names. Last night on the clip, the reporters were saying "the buzz is that they're Middle Eastern men...not white, not black," but the police wouldn't confirm anything about the detained.

If the perps are members of the death cult, the media will suppress all mention of it, so that we think that the biggest threat is from Christians.

To you and others deriding LEO’s, note the article says that close by is the Navy brig and Weapons Station.

We should be praising the tight security outside the base when there are strong rumors about.

Once again more lazy reporting as it’s no where near the Navy brig and Weapons Station. It’s sort of the same road but where they were caught was on the other side of the city from the Navy facilities, closer to Summerville than it was to there.

Inside the vehicle police found explosives. Two men were arrested, and charges of possession of unlawful explosives are being prepared. Officials are not at this time releasing any additional information on the number of charges or types of explosive devices they found.

Florida, particularly its university system, is stuffed with Islamics.

I have always thought that the next attack is going to be either Charleston or Jacksonville. Glad somebody else with more authority seems to be thinking in the same direction and watching the muzzie rat lines.

Blue Water Bridge, Windsor Detroit Tunnel, Ambassador Bridge are prime targets, considering Dearborn is 20 minutes away. Any of these are prime since you would disrupt commerce from two countries.

I think bridges would be a disruption, but both Charleston and JAX have big military installations and a successful attack on either of them could be a more serious problem.

Charleston, of course, also has a military brig where some of this slime is twiddling its thumbs and waiting to be sprung. Not going to happen, IMHO, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t going to try.

What is interesting is that they were heading out of Charleston according to one source. My first thought was that they were heading into Charleston because being from Florida (one would assume with FL tags) they traveled up I95 and got off US 176 which is a back way into Charleston. I know this because we us to live about a mile up from where this occurred off of US 176. We would head up 176 to get on I95 instead of I26 because it was closer. Also, living outside of Goose Creek for a number of years, my husband was well acquainted with the Goose Creek police, being stopped several times in the town for speeding. It is known for speed traps, and the area these fellows were stopped is close to the city limits. So, I still wonder which way they were heading, my thoughts are they were going into GooseCreek from I95, on their way to Charleston.
