She’s disgusted at the possibility it was all aimed at the march in memory of Martin Luther King, Jr.

How many muslims in the area?

Maybe it was those lefty nutcase anarchists who attacked during that G20 summit a few years back.

Naaaah. Musta been racist. What a turd!

I smell a false flag op. That area is a center for left wing lunatics, the T shirt in the backpack is too easy. Sorry, no sale.

Yep, it has GOTTA be a racist, whitey, TEA Partier. It COULDN’T be a nutcase like Loughner or left wing whacko like the Unabomber.

Two T shirts, one for an anti-cancer event in the mid-west, the other for spring break in Florida. Not sure who I’d think those were characteristic of. College age right wing anti-cancer fanatics? Nah.

The bomb was found on the route of the MLK parade, which has unleashed a flurry of speculation. Most probably the actual reason for that’s the same as the Willie Sutton rationale, parades are where the people are.

When security guard Richard Jewell found the backpack bomb at the Atlanta Olympics, the FBI and the MSM said Jewell himself was the suspect.
