ANESVILLE, Wis. (AP) — Authorities are stepping up patrols around southern Wisconsin churches as a precaution as they search for a man suspected of stealing firearms from a gun store after threatening to carry out an unspecified attack.

The Rock County Sheriff's Office says 32-year-old Joseph Jakubowski expressed anti-religious views in a 161-page manifesto he sent to the White House. Police were increasing patrols near Janesville churches Sunday, although investigators say there is no specific threat.
 
Police in Sun Prairie, about 48 miles north of Janesville, say a man who entered Bethlehem Lutheran Church on Thursday and asked about church services was not Jakubowski.

Jakubowski is accused of taking handguns and rifles from a gun shop Tuesday night in Janesville, about 70 miles southwest of Milwaukee. Investigators have followed up on about 320 tips.

1. It seems Wisconsin Man is replacing Florida Man in the headlines

[rpannier]

2. Shouldn't that be 'Terrorist'

at the very least 'suspected terrorist'

[Still In Wisconsin]

4. No, silly... terrorists are brown people.

This man is Caucasian. Clearly, he needs mental help because he is angry. He is not a terrorist. Terrorists are brown people, understand?

Thanks.


Oh, and just in case.

8. White terrorists should always be dealt with by skillful and patient negotiators

and treated with compassion and understanding as to the whys and wherefores for their nonstandard behavior

Oh, and taken to Burger King if arrested

[Marcuse]

3. Home town of Paul Ryan.

[Vinca]

5. Jakubowski - now that's an unusual Muslim name.

[Heartstrings]

6. Janesville, it's Janesville

Not Anesville....and yes it's Paul Ryan's hometown and is located about 1 hour (give or take) from the (liberal) city I live in...guy's still on the loose after robbing the Armageddon Gun and Ammo store of multiple firearms. He has a manifesto and trump is his target...of course, if I were Paul Ryan I might think about not being in this area about now...Ha!
