I haven't seen this posted here yet. How long will it take the dim bulbs of the left to realize that we really are at war, and that the war is on our soil?

It's hard to tell one Semite from another, so maybe the 'Hispanic' shooters (reported in other stories) are really Mossad agents simulating Arabs shooting Americans. Why not? It's no more baseless a speculation than that the shooters are Arabs, and no more irresponsible.

[Eva]

Why would Mossad agents bother to pretend they are Arabs? You don't think that there are enought Arab terrorists being arrested?

The only reason that this is not being termed terrorism is that the powers that be are afraid to be politically incorrect, and don't want to give Bush any more support for his War on Iraq or the Homeland Security Agency.

If this were declared terrorism, the lack of a Homeland Security force would be so apparent that Daschle would have to resign.

If the trade center towers had not been on film footage due to urban "sky-cams", it would have been dismissed as violent windshear and a fuel tank explosion, followed by a pesky rudder problem in Pa., and a case of excessive gravity applying forces which exceeded available thrust at the Pentagon. If it wasn't for those pesky cell phones, James Kallstrom would have solved the whole mess in about a week.

Do you mean you don't think Bush would find out about it and tell us himself if the media stayed silent????

Mossad agents? And how would this benefit Isreal? And the elected goverment of Isreal would condone this because??

As I said on another thread, two things are certain to come out of this: 1)there will be shrill cries for more gun control from the usual suspects and 2) if this bastard is using one of the dreaded "black rifles", the federal AW ban will not only be re-instated, it will be made even worse with a total ban ala California's AW ban.

Never mind that the belief that gun control will reduce crime is a fallacy, and those who push it are guilty of perpetrating a fraud on the American people. The bottom line is if laws could reduce crime, we wouldn't need police.

As for convincing the liberal/socialist crowd that we are at war and that the war has come home to American soil, it will take several more events like September 11 and a lot more body bags for them to crawl out of their drug-induced fantasy world long enough to get really scared. The last thing these SOB's want to admit is that the REAL line of Home Defense is the armed citizen/Constitutional militia, i.e., every one of us.

As I said on another thread, two things are certain to come out of this

Maybe three.

Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, ultra gun control crusader, may now win the Md. Governorship over her pro-2nd Amendment opponent, Bob Ehrlich.

Makes me absolutely sick.

(BTW, I am a Marylander.)

Like Maryland needs more gun control. These people make me ill. The bottom line is, if laws reduced crime, we wouldn't need any police. The idea that gun control reduces crime is a fraud; in fact, there is enough evidence to support the idea that just the opposite is true. We need look no further than the 49% increase in gun crime in England in the three years since the idiots legislated a complete gun ban.

A pair of Muslims, doing what they were taught.

Terrorism.

The simplist answer is usually right.

I call it like I see it.

[Eva]

NO, I don't think that Bush would find out about it. I think that Bush is much too busy taking care of business to interfere in a local police investigation where he is not wanted. They have made a major effort to keep the local juridiction over these incidents. They haven't even had the Govenor of Maryland involved.

[Elenya]

NO, I don't think that Bush would find out about it.

You're still kidding, right?....

[glock rocks]

so... how long do you give the legal private ownership of rifles?

[eastforker]

Now we hear of a tarrot card,the death card at the scene with the words"dear policeman,I am God". Sounds that you may be on to something and yes,if this starts happening in other locals, could start something of the nature you spoke of.If ya gottem you might want to hide em,all except for one of course.

[Squantos]

Watched a show a few nights ago that blamed the fall of the roman empire on the lead pipe they used for plumbing. They blamed the lead tainted water for the dementia that destroyed Rome.........

Makes me wonder what the Demonrat Socialists gun grabbers are drinking .........(kool-aid ?:o)........

Stay Safe !

[Eva]

I didn't hear anything about the tarot card. That is really spooky. It kind of sounds more like a lone nut, though, than a terrorist. I am just waiting to see where this goes from this point.

[B4Ranch]

how long do you give the legal private ownership of rifles?

Until the end of the American Constitution or the end of this gov't.

[Grut]

Mossad agents? And how would this benefit Isreal? And the elected goverment of Isreal would condone this because??

Well, let's see: it would benefit Israel because it would drive the US away from the Arab world if we thought Arabs were responsible; the elected government of Israel would condone this to get the benefit of greater US dependency on Israel in the Middle East; and Mossad agents because that's who does CIA-type stuff for Israel.

But your questions miss the point; I suggested Israel as the guilty party not because I think it's so but because we know so little that it's remotely, in theory, possibly so. And if that's the case, we don't know enough to nominate anyone for the 'honor'.
