Great: Tea Partier Arrested For Plot to Bomb Wrigley Field
— Ace

The FBI got involved in setting him up; his "bomb," made by an FBI plant, was fake.

A Northwest Side man has been charged with plotting to bomb a strip of crowded Wrigleyville night spots around the time people were leaving a Dave Matthews concert at the ballpark over the weekend.

Sami Samir Hassoun, 22, of the 4700 block of North Kedzie Avenue, was arrested as he placed a backpack containing what he thought were high-explosives in a trash can in front of Sluggers on Clark Street, about a block south of Wrigley Field, according to the FBI.

There is some possible terrorist breaking news. Fingers crossed.

BREAKING: Fort Bliss Army Base in Texas on Lockdown After Shooting, Army Officials Say. Please God, not again.

Either way I guess there was a shooting. Prayers.

Murder/Suicide: God loser men suck.

Can't just kill yourself. Oh no. Gotta bring someone along with you because otherwise you'd get lonely.

Cowardly, weak killers.

Then they won't have to rely on Special Agent so-and-so to help them out. That's when we should be worried. All in all Vidal Hossoun was probably a loner given "gentle" prodding by some dipshit cleric at a local mosque. Total deniability and a test of Chicago's security all for the cost of some loner douche.

46 And another thing...I was walking down the Champs Eleyses (sp-5) years ago and I went to put a wrapper or something in the trashcan but I was puzzled that I couldn't find any place to put it. There was a fitted metal cap on all the trashcans. I heard that hours before, someone placed a bomb in a city trash can and as part of the response, they have caps for all the cans the city puts on in response. After a moment of marveling about their system, I got a bit pissed off about this idea that a civilization  has chosen to accept perpetual warfare  instead of offending some pubic hair bearded folks or university faculty  or journalists somewhere.

One person was shot, said Major Myles Caggins, an Army spokesman on base. He did not provide the condition of the victim. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2010/09/20/shooting-fort-bliss-army-base/ Officials said shots were fired inside Shopette, a convenience store on the base. Officials are sealing off the area and closing the gates at Fort Bliss. Details about the identity of the shooter or about possible casualties are still unclear.

With all due respect, I gotta agree with my fellow moron here-- I think it would be better with a rolling rotation of WASP identifiers.  Funny to us, but as we all know, actual facts and truth don't matter to the left and the MFM.  Remember that they get their news and election information from Stewart and Saturday Night Live, to which they then bitterly cling.

Agree.  Honestly, terrorism on our soil is a serious thing and I don't see the humor in connecting it to the TP.  Especially when people have (or may have) died.

Also, the left and MSM will do everything possible to find a TP/rightward angle and don't need help from our side to make a connection even if it's in jest.

87 62 Well, Beckoning, honestly, I wouldn't headline that if it were REALLY a tea partier... Huh. I thought they were funny. People keep saying I'm giving them heart attacks, though.

Well, they are funny, it's just I never know when you're being funny or accurate (or funny AND accurate).  I don't think I've had any heart attacks over this, but it just seems given the relentless Left coverage of the Tea Party as "dangerous, maniacal extremists" that I always think it's possible, just possible that there might be some unstable people in their ranks just waiting.   And that one of them has finally ignited.

So while I can read a headline here as "Hardline Episcopalians" and know which actual real religion is about to be fingered, it's more iffy with Tea Party stuff.

But hey, however this works I'm still going to hang around here (sorry).  Maybe I'm too jittery over the coming November bloodbath, and how the MSM and Dems are going to do their best to cheat their way out of it.  I'm all for handing them ammo that blows up in their faces, but many times the "corrections" to their stories never seem to come out, or get much attention.

94 Hassoun my son, your contact will be two white guys with high and tight haircuts   wearing blue windbreakers and driving a late model crown victoria.  May the baka be with you. 

Thank God they're stupid.  And, Thank God for all the FBI guys and gals who do what they do all day every day.

"Sami Samir Hassoun, 22, of the 4700 block of North Kedzie Avenue, was arrested as he placed a backpack containing what he thought were high-explosives in a trash can in front of Sluggers on Clark Street, about a block south of Wrigley Field, according to the FBI."

Great. He's in my fucking neighborhood. And yes, thank God for the FBI.

97 Ah yeah, you're right, if I start off with "Great" then it's like one of *those* posts... okay I screwed it up. Hm, I like the joke, but maybe if I try to telegraph better right in the title that it's a goof?

98 What if it were like Tea Partier (Indian Subcontinent Chapter).... or Tea Partier (Algerian Glenn Beck Fan Club) ... like better telegraphed?

Too much?

Yeah, for those of us like me that would lessen the button-panic-ohcrap instant reaction.  The more ridiculous and over-detailed, the easier to say, "Oh, that's that ironic satire thing I've heard about, so that's okay, then!" 

I mean, I'm not without a sense of humor, really.  Honestly, you can see it right here, it's got this great little attachment, and...oh, well, it was right here a minute ago.  I guess I should get another one from Amazon.  If I click a link here, will that help?

Yep.

Just saw this headline over at Doug Ross.

If I hadn't been here last night;

if I had just been lazy and not clicked through;

I'd have just thought it was another report confirming the MSM meme of the TP's violence. The MSM isn't even reporting this story at all so the only reporting this story's getting is yours blaming it on the TP.

How is that appropriate???

Can't overestimate what a BAD idea this is...

This headline will be all over the net and anyone who DOESN'T do the effort of clicking through back to here (which is MOST PEOPLE) will be clueless that this is an "inside joke"...

That's really not funny.
