Ping for a new article about GA Tech - This one is by the AP and is absolutely outrageous. They refuse to even mention that the devices found at GA Tech were explosive devices - just plastice bottles w/ Chemicals!!! I honestly can't believe the audacity of the AP at this point.
If these incidents keep happening at our college campuses and anyone ends up getting hurt the AP will be complicit in the crimes, IMHO. Word needs to get out and our students need to be warned to at the very least keep their eyes and ears open!!!
Yeah, two colleges. I wonder how many others are targeted?
Yeah, no clue about what these 'devices' were supposed to do. Go boom? Create poison gas?
Here's what's being reported out of Tampa, FL:
Terrorist Act on GA Campus - http://www.tampabays10.com/news/news.aspx?storyid=19817
Atlanta - Three explosive devices found in a courtyard between two Georgia Tech dormitories on the East Campus Monday morning were part of a "terrorist act," an Atlanta police official said.
One of the devices exploded, injuring the custodian who found them inside a plastic bag. Two others were detonated by a bomb squad.
The custodian suffered ringing to the ears and was treated at a local hospital. The events led to a temporary evacuation Monday morning.
"It is a terrorist act at this point and depending on the outcome of the investigation it potentially could become a federal violation as well," said Major C.W. Moss of the Atlanta Police Department.
The custodian found the three devices about 9 a.m. in a plastic-type garbage bag, Moss said. When he picked up the bag, one exploded, as it was designed to do when handled. The explosives were made up of chemicals placed inside plastic bottles and could have seriously injured someone, officials said. Numerous agencies were on the Georgia Tech campus to search for suspects.
"It will be a joint investigation between the Atlanta Police Department, the Georgia Tech Police Department, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, the FBI and the Joint Terrorism Task Force. Every possible lead will be followed," said Major Moss.
About 100 students were evacuated from the Cloudman and Glenn dormitories, according to school spokeswoman Amelia Gambino
Don't you dare suggest that Muslims were involved. And explosive? Some pesky kid probably just shook up a soda can for a prank.
C'mon, get with the program here!
You had some great comments on the thread regarding this event yesterday. Thought you may wish to take a look at this article as well.
Ok, Now my suspicions have been confirmed. The MSM will do anything to keep any suspected incidents involving an explosive device quiet. With exception of anything that might just be a threat to their beloved NYC or perhaps LA.
Yes it is quite possible that the incident at GA tech was some twisted weirdo with a very displaced sense of humor. But the MSM could at least mention the response by DHS, and what actually happened. Can't you just see their Pear Harbor headline if it happened today.
" PEARL HARBOR ENJOYS RECORD NUMBER OF VISITING JAPANESE MILITARY. NAVY SHIPS SINK DUE TO ACCIDENTAL RELEASE OF INCENDIARY BALLAST FROM RISING SUN AIRPLANE.
Yet, if this were the first story I'd seen, I'd probably be thinking, "so what?" Which, apparently, is what somebody (who??) wants us to think.
