Enough with the Anthrax threads
Come on people. We are better than to listen to bullshit media spin. Don't forget that the media pushed the al Qaeda link. Ivin's so called shrink has a long rap sheet, and she isn't even a psychiatrist, but a social worker. As people that believe in the presumption of innocence, we need to stop believing the unsupported crap spewing from the FBI and media.

1. REALLY??? We don't have enough information
to make ANY assessment whatsoever regarding Ivins' guilt or innocence. And that's just the problem...WHY DON'T WE??? Something definitely stinks here.

2. not withstanding that Ivins (and everyone else) is innocent...
...until proven guilty in court, with due process, I think we have all the information we need. He's innocent.

3. You're probably right about that,
but again there's no way of knowing from what the lying media tells us. What I want to know is who's NOT innocent, and what the FBI knows about it.

8. We know the FBI isn't innocent. The government just shelled out
5 million dollars in lieu of an apology to Hatfil.

5. Why do I keep thinking "Richard Jewell" when reading about this case?

6. No, it's not enough
The anthrax attacks were the galvanizing force behind BushCo's Iraq invasion. The truth must come out. We cannot let this fade into history like JFK's assassination. No coverup is totally locked up. The feds can have their prime suspect and try to close the case, but the true culprits are still out there.

If you've had enough of the anthrax threads, don't click on them.

Forgive me if I take this particular issue a little personally: it was my workplace in S. Florida that received one of the anthrax mailings, and it was my former coworker who died. Between that and the dangling chad ballot bullshit and I'll never set foot in that accursed state again.

10. Move along, nothing to see here.
Unsupported crap is all we get, it's all we ever get, it's all we're gonna get. We've got to make do with what we have.
