Breaking: small explosive device thrown at military recruiting office in Times Square, New York City.

[syriacus]

Mayor: This country needs a military.

[armymarinemom]

What was that question about having the military there? grrrrr.

[syriacus]

Kelly: There was an officer in the substation. He came out. He joined up with the witness

Mayor: No one can do anything with seeming impunity.

Kelly: We're concerned. FBI labs helping.

[syriacus]

Bloomberg: We are please to have recruiting station. Glad to have local police substation. We are checking all the video cameras.

[GVnana]

What does Barack Obama have to say about this?

[lormand]

You guys work the night shift or something?

[HalleysFifth]

This sure got Bloomberg’s face all over the news. Is he still thinking about a presidential run as an independent?
Hmmm...

[dinasour]

> Dina it sounds that the anti military groups just upped the ante bigtime.

Just wait until Hillary steals the election from Obambi with superdelegates.

The “Peace and Love for all things” crowd will be burning entire cites to ground, Denver, in particular.

Alleged perp had hood and backpack. Looking at video cameras. ....... On a bicycle?, Sounds like a student protest prank. Broken window or blownout window? This may be blown out of proportion. Haven’t followed it too closely but my mind’s eye is picturing a large firecracker taped to a brick being thrown at the window. Maybe Blumberg needs some face time for a possible other reason? VP?

Some Most newsfolks are jerks.

Good question.

[gathersnomoss]

All is see are taxi’s.

[petercooper]

A bicycle? Hmmm.....

[Arrowhead1952]

Nah. Couldn't be.

[cricket]

Michele Obama probably feeling proud of America this morning and her husband, probably and quietly, feeling the same.

3:45 AM, peak traffic hour....

There was a freeper demonstration in Boston led by Race Bannon (can someone ping ping him?). Part of our duties might have been to protect the Boston, Mass recruiting station. If that happened, I expected to get seriously hurt -- especially since I was once again wearing my Ann Coulter t shirt. I took videos of the freeper protest HERE.

Fortunately, the "peace" marchers did not attack the recruiting station and the police protected us as the "peace marchers" paraded by the Fox 25 news affiliate (the reason for them flipping the bird) and the Mass. Statehouse.

[backtothestreets]

It is not just the military they attack. They attack the major institution most respected by Americans. As such, they are attacking both the military and all Americans that hold a high opinion of the military.

I’m guessing with all the live webcams on Times Square they probably have something.

Odd that they call themselves peaceniks, huh? Darn Amish.

[SouthTexas]

Guess she didn’t answer the 3:00 call.
