I hope you stay on this like a bad smell on a DUmmie, Al. Good info so far.
Don't worry, this is in my backyard! My sheriff bud tells me if they want to hide, we live in the best place in the USA in order to do so! Especially this time of year! Most places are ass deep to a tall Indian and everyone is snuggled around their fireplace, not payin' much attention to anything else! Plenty of tourists in town due to ski season.
Maybe, instead of wanting to take the blame for an attack or in this case an attempted attack, the Muslims are trying the tried and true tactic of divide and conquer. Hell the left leans more than halfway in favoring Muslims anyway, so this would only help to increase their empathy.
That has been proposed! Most of the guys down at the local have this on their minds, too! Most times the FBI rarely shares anything! They seem to be reaching out to us for the Aryan link and haven't found anything. Otherwise, I doubt we would be gettin' as much info as we are.
ETA:
There is a little more, but I can't divulge or I will lose my source, and that ain't happenin'! As soon as I get an okay, I will share it with you!
