3. I always love the "allegedly" --
It would be pretty black and white if a guy was standing there with a shotgun or not. :eyes:

4. A shotgun? Was his name Whittington and was he looking for Dick?
Edited on Fri Jan-18-08 02:49 PM by Lone_Star_Dem
I suspected he was harboring a grudge but this still comes as a shock.

15. True that!
There was a picture of the guy's pickup truck on one of the news sites, but I couldn't tell if it had a Huckabee sticker or a Ron Paul sticker on the bumper.

11. "Items of concern" found in his car.
Edited on Fri Jan-18-08 04:51 PM by IanDB1
If it's "The Turner Diaries," he's a right-wing Repuke.

If it's "Armed Madhouse," he's a Liberal driven over the Andrew Veal Threshold by six years of Bush.

If it's "Catcher in The Rye," then it's just a random crazy.

If it's The Koran, then he'll be locked-up in a Yeminite prison, sentenced to death only to escape, turn himself in a year later, and then be freed after a month because he's really sorry-- just like the guys who bombed The USS Cole.

Then again, the "Items of Concern.."

DC has a gun ban. That means that guns must be nonexistent there except for police and law enforcement. :eyes:
