1. What's John Boners bail?

[Ykcutnek]

2. Good work.

Bet we won't hear much from the "where was the FBI/NSA before this happened" crowd about this.

[Man from Pickens]

4. Probably...

because when we get the full story it will turn out to be another harmless, mentally-challenged individual snared in an entrapment scheme, as these things inevitably do

[bettyellen]

6. is it entrapment when they are tweeting encouragment for home grown attacks and stockpiling

weapons? I agree with you on the mentally challenged part, but harmless? Nope.


'“I believe that we should just wage jihad under our own orders and plan attacks and everything,” Cornell allegedly wrote in an online message to the informant in August, according to the FBI. “I believe we should meet up and make our own group in alliance with the Islamic State here and plan operations ourselves."

In the message, Cornell said that such attacks “already got a thumbs up” from radical cleric Anwar Awlaki “before his martyrdom.” '

7. angry venting is still free speech

when the full story comes out - if it ever does - chances are extremely good this was all provoked and encouraged as part of an entrapment sting, and that left to his own devices the individual arrested would have done nothing but mouth off.

3. Here is another link with a bit more info

The FBI has arrested an Ohio man for allegedly plotting an Islamic State-inspired attack on the U.S. Capitol, where he hoped to set off a series of bombs aimed at lawmakers, whom he allegedly considered enemies.

Christopher Lee Cornell -– also known as Raheel Mahrus Ubaydah -– was arrested earlier today on charges of attempting to kill a U.S. government official....

5. Thanks for info.

[okaawhatever]

8. Wow, "attempting" to kill, not "conspiracy" to kill so it went past the talking stages and into

action. Hmmm.......

[Blue_In_AK]

11. So now even Soundgarden are terrorists?

(Sorry...)

[AngryAmish]

9. Boner not pay his bar tab again?

[PeoViejo]

10. Another Dolt falls into the FBI Dragnet.

Just remember, the FBI always picks on people dumber than them, so if you have an IQ over 60, I wouldn't worry.

[Glassunion]

12. Are the quotes in the correct spot?

Is it - Alleged ISIS supporter in Ohio arrested over plan to carry out “jihad” attack on US

or - Alleged "ISIS supporter" in Ohio arrested over "plan" to carry out jihad attack on US

[Fred Sanders]

13. Sounds similar to the four white domestic terrorists in Georgia who got arrested a year ago, and

the white domestic terrorist who tried to firebomb a NCAAP building, recently.


And look at this "apparent extremist":

Because white folks are "apparent extremists" and brown folk are " terrorist jihadists".

Please obey the rules set for you by the media.
