In the second article it says this:
"At an NYPD Bomb Squad facility, specialists destroyed seven fuse bombs packed with nails and screws that had been discovered in the basement, police said. "

Okay, even I'd have to admit that that's a little over the top! <img src="images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

A little?

that article is pretty scary if you read it.

the agents staged a fake car accident, to "prevent a violent stand off". (or just to lure him out and pick him off easier if there was no witnesses about more then likely).

look at how they are painting this guy (as well as other "survivalists")..

"and the basement was outfitted like a survivalist's den, with posters of Adolf Hitler and Che Guevara on the wall, hundreds of food cans and water bottles on shelves, a gas mask and numerous bottles of cooking gas used for camp stoves."

reading between the lines its meant to mean...dont prepare yourself for anything,dont be independant or a free thinker.
just be a sheep and rely only on your govt for everything they know better then you after all..least thats MY take on it.

i know people who collect ww2 items and LOTS of items will end up having a swastika on them,unless you ONLY collect allies items. but it doesnt make these people nazis.

i also like how they added "I believe that he may have been smoking marijuana immediately before the warrant was issued."
which would make it alot easier for the public to swallow if he had to be "taken by force".

this entire story disturbs me greatly.
the way they acted, and the way he acted as well.

if i had the room id dedicate as much as possible to storing extra food water and other emergency items.

but if he DID make bombs, hes definitly got a screw loose too.

i still want to know who snitched on this guy to get the law after him, i didnt see any reasoning in the article.

Man, this was one confused dude! <img src="images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

Maybe he was just trying to be politically correct.

Hitler, a faciest.

Che, a PHRASECENSOREDPOSTERSHOULDKNOWBETTER..

At least the feds can't accuse him of biased treatment of political beliefs.

Thats a good point, I didn't think of it like that. So much for freedom of speech/expression.
