I couldn't agree with you better. My brother refuses to work for the FBI. He thinks they are completely corrupt. He wants no part of their stench operations. From my understanding the future of the FBI will be under the auspices of the CIA. Guess who they will be observing more than terrorist? You got it...Americans! That is why I consider them to be complete sham. I have no respect for them at all.

[seeker41]

They were warned in the summer of 2001 by the Mossad that a terror plan was in the works. What a joke they are and I rely on myself for protection. I have more sense then the FBI. This shooter is going to be arab or they would have already disclosed the perps identity. Stay safe.

Resently flew Northwest from CA to In with stop over in Minneapolis. Our plane was delayed for a minor repair. (It was the third incident of, "delayed for a minor repair", in the two days I flew. The gentleman I sat with said it was becoming more and more common to be "delayed for a minor repair".

Wonder if it gave them time to check out the half dozen ME men with passport that were flying on the plane.

Pilot made a comment about repair "better to be safe than sorry" Same could have applied to "passengers".

Let's just thank our lucky stars that I'm not an air traffic controller. I can't even keep the names of the planes straight. I just watched the Boston Pops by the Charles River. Talk about a mammoth stage. I wonder how many law enforcement agents were hiding underneath it just in case. They had some flyovers too.

Gray-Out Davis said nothing of gun control that I know of.
However, the mayor of LA proudly stated
"Too many guns in the hands of too many people...."

Davis was probably just standing behing him pulling the strings...

[PJeffQ]

notice in my post about an earlier news conference, they said they couldnt obtain his "true" identity...

[ArneFufkin]

No way. The FBI had no knowledge that those planes were going to be hijacked on that day by those individuals and directd toward those targets. B.S.

[Joe Hadenuf]

LOL! Were getting ready now. Got some heavy fireworks. LOL! I really love this stuff. Stay safe.....

Per Washington Post:"The 52-year-old gunman had approached another person at the counter and opened fire shortly before noon, said Alex Baez, a police spokesman. There was no immediate indication of his identity, nationality or motive." How ignorant of the government to release this info on his age and pretend not to know the identity, ethnicity and citizenship of this perpertrator.

I am getting tired of Political Correctness. It is killing this country! We have had enough of this crap.

Bomb Threat at LAX according to Adam Housley on FNC at 11:36 EDT
News trucks were evacuated.... reports are that the 52 yr old suspect, whose ethnicity has still not been confirmed, parked his car in a suspicious manner which indicates there might be a bomb....

[ArneFufkin]

Joe, you just keep shooting that ordinance into the air and I'll get the AC-130 to swing by!

[brydic1]

They have no idea as to the deceased terrorist's identity but they know he is 52 years old. How stupid do they think the American people are. Some of us after all are not liberal sheeple. How on earth can they be sure of his age unless there was some form of identification. They apparently believe whatever ID he has indicating his age but do not believe anything else about his ID.

[Catspaw]

A BOMB?

Yup, just an isolated incident. Nothing to see here....just move along.

[Wild Irish Rogue]

Did you see the press conf just held- more non info and stupid,stupid questions from the press. No ID yet on shooter,he did not carry ID( Charles Feldman,CNN, now saying they do have a good idea on his ID and he may have been carrying false ID, talks about possible contacts with intel agencies in other countries who may or may not be cooperating-Feldman is the best source for info tonight)Police-we have no idea of motive, weapons he carried-45 caliber,9mm and knife.After police repeat they have no idea who this guy is-female reporter asks if the car is registered to shooter.CNN anchor-blond Brit, states that this is not a terrorist act-how she is so psychic to know that,I have no idea!!

[flaglady47]

Just had news bleep on FOX tv that not only were the bomb dogs sniffing out the perp's car and found bomb scent, they (the FBI and/or Police) went to the perp's apartment in Anaheim (but they don't know his name, yeah) and the dogs picked up bomb scent there also. Plus they found a note, and the FBI/Police are now saying the situation is more serious then originally thought. News Alert!

[The Californian]

Thank you for the clarification. I really couldn't figure out what in the world was the reason for this. I didn't even think about the fires. I apologize for my thoughtless "overkill" remark.

[Wild Irish Rogue]

They tell us, with a straight face,that they don't know the ID of the perp-but,they were able to locate his car in the parking lot and go to his apartment !They should be honest and say, we are not releasing his name.

[goldilucky]

You are absolutely correct in stating this. Very good perception! I believe the FBI does know this was indeed a terrorist attack. I've also noticed they have yet to get an id on this guy.
