If it where true (horrors!) then the devil incarnate GWB would be right. And of course,he can't be right. I mean, a whole 5% of the population is smarter than he is, and of course that means everyone in the MSM. (thanks for the quiz, BW) George W. Bush is Horatio at the bridge. And the way things are going, he is probably going to die defending his nation just the way Horatio died defended Rome centuries ago. I just hope, that if he does give the supreme sacrifice, that the vast majority of the nation will finally see the truth, and will honor him. And then give every one of the snivelling, whining, obfuscating, backstabing, narscistic, powerhungry, manipulating, decietful, dillusional, self serving, leaches both inside and outside the country just what they deserve. Sorry. That "non-binding" resolution slinking through Congress right now is straining my self control. I'm going to my woodshop for some needed therapy.

But I agree with isirota: fascinating how quick the media evidently (maybe elves told them) knew it. Way before anybody else, like the cops, had anything to say about possible motives they were announcing that his Islamic underpinnings were not relevant. If the CIA had their sources Bin Laden would have been in a cage long since. I don’t know either, and it looks in this case like he’s a simple nut.

However, that said, I am appalled at the MSM's knee-jerk reaction to immediately remove that fact as a causal factor in what he did.

When, indeed, the very ACT of walking into a mall with a weapon, and randomly SHOOTING innocent victims IS AN ACT OF TERRORISM!?

The moment they start corrupting the ability to kill bad people, then there is a problem. So long as the enemy is dead, I don’t really care what the news talk about.

What was just irksome, though, was the way some information was delicately parceled out, and some shoveled out. To me, that's agenda-driven reporting, which makes it less like news and more like advocacy. Based on the information that’s emerged it the last day, TC, it looks as if your take is the right one.

His kid record for sure indicates an almost wanton desire to harm other human beings. I'm thinking the fact he was a member if Islam is really a total side note, if he were still in his native country he would have become a sniper a very long time ago. Just for the rush of taking another life! Sick, by our views and standards yes, but by the standards of growing up in a war where the snipers seemed to be heroes and villains? Who knows maybe the missionaries were after him, got him all confused and such, they like doing things like that. The local media would be pulling a covering angle so fast one can't believe it. After all a mormon is running for POTUS! For sure one can bet then the powers that be will, without being asked or coerced, perform what may actually appear to be an exorcism to protect the church. I'm NOT stating such as a fact, theory only. What I do know for a fact, is that 5 innocents are dad, four more wounded, and the guy who performed this act is also dead! Just as he should be! Saves one hella lot of expense to the public. Even though we can't stand him up and ask him WHY! Such is life. I'm glad that somebody with a gun was present to shut this punk down and very early in his escapade as well, citizen cop, happened to be the latter this time, but someone with a gun and the guts to use it STOPPED the killing! And this guy would have been able to take out another 20 or more had he not been shot and pinned down when he was. I know Troly Square, been there many times, it is a confusing and delightful place full of the typical mall shops and lots of places to have a nice dinner. Shops are everywhere, some of the many hallways are narrow and wind and at times you have no idea where you might be at. It is not laid out like any typical mall in the nation! Lots of wood, glass places to hide out or hold up. Sounds like he ran out of luck almost as soon as he began his shopping experience. I'm glad he did.

It appears that unless there is an unbroken tie to Osama, officials have a near knee-jerk propensity to deny terrorist motives. I think this is a pretty transparent attempt to shield certain ethnic and religious segments from public resentment. It will be interesting whether we ever learn if this young fellow came under the influence of any radical/jihadist indoctrination. If so, I doubt the main-stream media will enlighten us; but I would expect leaks and blogs on the subject. On the subject of violent vets. I knew many from WW2, Korea and Viet Nam; even a few who saw ghastly service in WW1. I don't recall any tendency whatsoever toward uncontrollable violence. I did see some tendencies toward personal destruction; especially among those who had been wounded and treated extensively with pain killing drugs. However, I saw even more of that tendency among those who did not go to Viet Nam but enjoyed the drug culture at home.
