Agreed. Am I the only one that learned as a kid to not judge a book by its cover? The 5 guys are terrorists. Plain and simple. It doesn't matter what color they are or their political affiliation.

Hmm, then we're two of the most unique individuals on the forum who were taught well. Apparently, others were taught to judge someone by their skin color and call them Republican terrorists because they're...*gasp* WHITE!
I still look for the day a few on the forum can start and handle a decent conversation sans the "Poor, poor me, I'm so disadvantaged" mentality.

CP, your posts get less intelligent every time you hit enter. I defend, support, uplift and do pretty much anything I can to help raise people from the often unfair situations they're in. There's a possibility I own a few more homes than most and I'm prepared to retire where I can do the most good. So if that's "Poor poor me" than you must be twisted at the root. I never said I was poor, minority, ex-con, or any other such thing. I've made some excellent decisions in my lifetime and I'm willing to help others do the same. I've seen racism, hatred, bigotry from those who honestly believed I went along with this narrow minded mindset. Those who know me well, know all too well how incorrect that would be. Oh and let there be no mistake, I can turn my back on anyone who is intentionally stupid and fights to remain that way.

Pretty sure the "Poor, poor me" was not in the financial sense. But hey... if you want to use that little statement as an excuse to tell everyone how many homes you own and how you can retire at anytime so be it. That is why this is called a forum... so people can change subjects on a dime and it is completely normal.

Admit it, Chico. You are a racist bigot. Plain and simple. You blame the white republicans for the dismay of other less fortunate than even yourself, and you pander to their (the less fortunate) cries in the name of charity.
Pat yourself on the back. You deserve to do so. I won't discredit your success. However, I refuse to even accept the rhetoric your spew on this forum with regard to feeling sorry for the masses who you feel are in such desperate need of help, especially since you couldn't even get so close to presenting factual info from the article you posted. And, yet, you say my posts get less intelligent every time I hit enter? I think it's a two way street, sir...

We'll probably learn that they have participated in the Occupy protests.
Good call.

Looks like they are from the Occupy Movement.

I think they were Occupy WallStreet Tea Party terrorists, members of the Home Made Meth Club.
It looks like Fox News is manufacturing the news again. These criminals would be the kind of crazy people to blow up people in a peaceful demonstration Occupy or Tea party. Leave it to Faux News to make up information.

No, not really Cary. Wrong again. They're more like Obama's Weather Underground friend Ayers... :
"Accused ringleader Douglas Wright was noted for his quiet commitment to Occupy Cleveland. Fellow plotter Brandon Baxter got arrested protesting foreclosures and organized an event called “Occupy the Heart Festival” that was supposed to kick-start Occupy Cleveland after a moribund winter. Another plotter, Josh Stafford, listed Occupy protests on Facebook as his job. Yet another, Anthony Hayne, signed the lease for a warehouse used as living quarters by Occupy Cleveland protesters.
The Cleveland Five are the pathetic sons of Occupy — rootless, underemployed, drunk on a sophomoric radicalism, alienated from the American system of democratic capitalism to the point of lawlessness. One Occupy leader told the (Cleveland) Plain Dealer that Wright — a drifter with no known address and a vaguely checkered past — struck him as altogether “stereotypical.” (from NRO's Rich Lowry)

Everyone knows US terrorists are right wing nut jobs. Can you say McVeigh? Who is forming those back woods highly Armed Groups? Not democrats. What you are reporting is loosely based on where Fox thought these people were at one time.
These guys were going to blow up the bridge that peaceful protestors were going to use to protest.

No one that is truly progressive and protesting against the crimes of Wall Street is going to set off a bomb.
People that would blow up a bridge may be moved by a protest, but they are not part of the protest. They are just criminals looking for a reason to be destructive.
That's only slightly different from those that create phony backwoods Militia's getting ready for the next civil war, so the south can rise again.
The main difference is the bridge killers are looking for a reason to be nuts, the crazy Militia people are convinced they are doing something good, which is still nuts, but an ignorant nuts.

Neither. They are separated by 40 years and are both true.
In the 1960's war protesters like Ayers didn't care about people having a economic level playing field, he was protesting a war. People like Ayers and ex-Vietnam soldiers did most of the bombings against the government.
But the southern people that were at the same time bombing Black Churches, are now right wing militia members who hate the Federal Government... ie Tim McVeigh... times have changed.
Both statements are true

The latest attempted bombers are left wing nut jobs. Which makes one of your statements an outright lie.
McVeigh was in the 90's...times have changed. Lefties are the terrorists again.
