10. Thanks!
They look like just regular 20 year olds. So disturbing. I hope they're brought in alive.

13. Don't much look like militia types
I'd say Jihadi and Columbine-type are about tied, with RW-loon now down to third.

39. Really, really aggrivated w/ Tweety & Co
... they're doing everything they can to call these guys Al Queida without actually using the words.
They look to me like 2 geeked out college students. Remember the Aurora Colorado shooter? Brilliant American guys can be anti-social nuts too.

42. We still don't know yet.
As positive as it is to have some photographs to go off of, there's still nothing known about motives at this point.
White Hat is definitely light skinned and appears to be Caucasian. Black Hat may have somewhat darker skin than White Hat but it's still too unclear about his race or origin. And I don't know if the darker skin might just be a matter of shadows.
We. Just. Don't. Know. Anything. Yet.

Freeper reaction to Fox news guy saying the suspects in the photos are white:
I just heard that as well... maybe Occupy hippie types?
Lots of middle eastern people ‘look white’.
I’ve seen blonde and red headed Iranians, Afghanis and Pakistanis.
don’t look caucasian to me, they look ME
Just saw the photos. I am relieved as they both look middle eastern to me. No TEA linkage here.
Now let’s go find and kill these Jihadis
I don’t know. I’m thinking Iran or Occupy.
He looks like an Occupy Wall-Streeter type
Occupy Wall Streeters in my opinion.
Khakis and white t-shirts are pretty indicative of either a Lib or Muslim.

4. Dunno, the schnoz on the guy in the white cap
looks pretty Mediterranean to me.
What struck me about these losers was that the t shirts were blank, as were the jackets and white cap. They stayed completely away from logos in a town where most t shirts have pictures and writing on them.
That alone should have made them stand out.

8. Neither you nor the freepers have any idea who they are
As far as speculation goes, we are still where we were before the photos were released.

10. I tend to agree with you
BUT... we all need to be careful about rushing to judgment.
We won't know why they did it or who they are until they are caught.
Didn't teh Grate Omni-impotent gNads caution them about speculumating?
Those primitives are on the iggy list for sure.

Radical Islam is a religion, not a race.
But with that being said - If I were an Islamic terrorist who was hell-bent on attacking the United States, I would work hard to recruit members who could pass for typical Americans - because sending over older men in prayer robes, with long beards, sandals and head wraps is probably going to arouse suspicion.
..DUmbasses...

Well, from what I see, one looks white and one looks darker skinned. Pretty much rules out skinheads. Don't exactly look like RW extremists, either. Even if the FBI can't identify them, they look quite young and not all that careful.

56. This doesn't look good for the country
I was hoping they would be some fringe domestic group because then the fallout would be less significant. Imagine all the shit Fox and the Repugs are going to raise if these guys turn out to be Muslim. The fear mongering and finger pointing is going to be intense.
I think of how terrified everyone was by 9-11, and it was indeed awful. Yet far more Americans died in Iraq and Afghanistan than during the 9/11 attacks. More people have died form guns since Sandyhook than died in 9-11, yet few pay attention to that.

For the lurking DUmmies that think that the muslim bombers look like white guys and not obama's kin folk, let me remind you of this!What did Chaz Bono do now?

She thinks that having Americans committing terrorism against their own country is better for the Presidentcountrythan a foreign country that we know hates us and has for decades.
Is Occupy a race group now?
And this says all one needs to ever know about the mother****ers of the DUmp...
You care nothing about the victims,the dead,the devastated families...you hoped you could make political hay out of their suffering and when it is likely you can`t you fear that your insane beliefs may be looked at and questioned.
I wish you nothing but the misery your soul deserves you wretched piece of shit.

BainsBane, there is no difference between you and the filth that set those bombs.
Ladies and gentlemen of CC, lurking DUmbasses, and all the ships at sea - I give you a face to put to the terrorist coddling, blame America, "educated" left:
BainsBane, there is no difference between you and the filth that set those bombs.
Amen to that! However, you cannot reason with BainsBane. :mental:
It's the age-old story.
Liberal meets fact. Liberal lies, liberal projects, liberal cries foul and sticks fingers in ears and head explodes.
I wish they'd just skip to the ending right off the bat.
