Overnite, two men arrested while sleeping in their car at a reststop in MD. John Mohammed aka John Williams and his stepson Lee Malvo. Mohammad is thought to be the likely shooter.

"So if Nicole was black, OJ would have been convicted ?"

Probably. ...at least the odds would have been increased for a conviction. Have you forgotten all the racial things that went on in that trial?

Thank you for posting the thread. It's 7am and almost 500 posts already. It's gotta be a record.

[CDHart]

Thanks for the info. I did find an article on Fox's website that says "the FBI searched a location near Marion, Alabama, known as Camp Ground Zero USA -- a place known to train militia groups." They do not specify what kinds of militia groups.

"I have a feeling we're in for another "OJ" trial with these two folks ..." Nope. They killed innocent black people too

I'm black, and even if there were no blacks killed, these 2 deserve the same thing that their victims got, only much more slowly and that they see it coming, which they victims did not.

They each deserve a .223 for each victim starting from their feet upward on a daily basis.

Court of Public Opinion:

Yesterday at this time the local elementary school was jammed with parents bringing their kids to school (plus three ABC reporters, as I posted about this time yesterday). Today all is back to normal. Looks like local parents have already decided the danger is over.

So this is why they kept chief Moose on this one. Keep the racially correct police cheif on the case so if the bad guys happen to be black they can't play the race card. We all know whites can't play the race card at all, so it wouldn't matter in that case. If they can link at least three or four pieces of evidence to these guys, they will fry. Yahooo!

[Carolinamom]

The Blacks I saw interviewed on TV were outraged and fearful that the sniper had shot a child. I certainly hope that outrage transcends any race bias they might have. A killer is a killer is a killer is a killer......no matter what the race.

"While his race does not lead a thinking person to say, "we have to keep an eye on the blacks," it does bring up the question of his associations and affiliations."

Yup. I never once thought the shooter was a black person.

Demand that Capt. Moose repeat that "duck in a noose" statement could just be evidence of Mohammad's reported (Seattle newspaper) controlling personality.

Last night, the cable news networks were saying that the older guy had been charged with domestic abuse. In the Seattle Times article, he also took the three children he had with his ex-wife either during the divorce or afterwards & concealed them. Control, control, power & control--except with the murders, it's on a HUGE scale, controlling two states and the District of Columbia.

I didn't see the press conference

Moose's statement is in post #3944 of yesterdays thread.

The 40 yo is a moose-limb too

"Their stuff hitting the fan would have been on the radio, but not until late last night. Did they miss it?

I doubt it. These guys were glued to news. Several talk radio channels in that area with coverage all the time. They would have been tuned in.

[Freedom2specul8]

From the Washington Post: "The duck reference apparently is drawn from a folk tale ...

I wonder which freeper emailed washington post!

[bvw]

The duck in noose story, as many have posted it the past few hours, is a Cherokee Indian kid's tale and involves the goose winging away with the rabbit afraid to let go of the noose he hoped to trap the rabbit in. One way to read it is that the real perps or masterminds are winging away themselves while our forces hang on to this John William Mohammed noose of a misdirecting story.

The nmemonic "LADIN" and "NIDAL" is cute.

[Catspaw]

And the Nation of Islam offices. I want to see how Louis Farrakhan spins this one.

[wewillnotfail]

Bet they'd be singing a different tune if they were two angry white guys.

[slimer]

Camp Zero was infiltrated, unbeknownst to the owners by Muslims sympathizers.

So much for their motto, " the best of the best"

[MasonGal]

hmmm - interesting.

I wouldn't think that all is "back to normal" yet.
