The PIO is a non-nonsense kind of guy...not answering much. He won’t describe the suspect- except that he’s male. He was trying to gain entry to the Pentagon.

It’s dreadful to have to listen to Sanchez report this.

Another questions was asked: Did the shooter have on body-armor? The PIO officer said he didn’t want to answer that right now...

Something’s up.

Rick Sanchez on CNN summing up press conference. Says the shooter was trying to gain entrance to the Pentagon, not the Metro. Notes the chief would not answer question of whether the shooter was wearing body armor.

"Middle Eastern? Black? White?"

Wouldn't describe his ethnicity. He said he believed the shooter was an American citizen. He wouldn't answer a question about whether the shooter was wearing body armor - kind of strange he wouldn't answer the question and that it was asked in the first place.

Won't describe gunman."

So we now can surmise it's not a white guy...

so the shooter could be a local boy gone bad, a gang banger, a jihadi wannabe or some other type of killer.

It would be hard to disagree with you, at this point.

Joe Stack (IRS plane crasher) ends his “manifesto” with this, a popular Karl Marx quote and a slap at Capitalism...

“The communist creed:
From each according to his ability, to each according to his need.

The capitalist creed:
From each according to his gullibility, to each according to his greed.”

-Joe Stack (1956-2010)

Didn't the five that are under arrest in Pakistan come from the D.C. area? Could be an epidemic.

Thanks for that info, kristinn. Most of us are only familiar with the above-ground part of the Pentagon.

I didn’t catch the question. But even if that wasn’t asked it was the one on everyone’s minds.

That’s a strange answer: “believes he’s an American citizen.”

“Three people shot outside Pentagon Metro station”
March 4, 2010 - 8:58pm
WASHINGTON -

SNIPPET: “The shooting involved two Pentagon Force Protection Agency police officers. Arlington Country Fire and Rescue says the three people, including the suspect, have been transported to a local hospital.”

SNIPPET: “Keevil says the suspect calmly approached the Pentagon entrance, reached in his coat pocket, pulled out a handgun and started shooting. Police believed the shooter was reaching for Pentagon pass.”

SNIPPET: “The Pentagon Metro station has since reopened. The south entrance to the station is still closed, but trains have resumed service.”

Well, if the shooter was wearing body armor, it wasn’t all that effective, unless he was shot in the head.

I mean, reportedly, he’s in serious condition, right?
