Liberty student held after testimony of violent plans
Source: USA Today

A federal judge on Thursday refused to release from jail a Liberty University student charged with possessing a bomb the night before the Rev. Jerry Falwell's funeral, saying there was compelling evidence he could pose a danger.

Michael David Uhl told authorities he did not intend to hurt anyone, according to testimony from a special agent with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

But the agent, R.A. Davidson, also testified that the 19-year-old had other plans for violence, including a plot with a friend to disrupt a prom at his former high school in northern Virginia with heated homemade pepper spray.

A search of Uhl's computer turned up photographs of Adolf Hitler and young adults giving a Nazi salute, with one caption that said "I love Hitler," the agent said. Other photographs showed Uhl and others giving what is considered a gang sign, the agent said.

4. The curriculum is Making Jesus work for You.
No need to ask, "what would Jesus do?". At Liberty Jesus works for you. Use Jesus to attack your enemies, use him to justify smiting all who disagree with the white man's interpretation of God's word (that thrown together by underpaid, uneducated, politicized stenographers who couldn't copy two sentences the same way twice until they were bribed or beaten,piece of "holy" work for non thinkers called the king James Bible), who place themselves above man's law, and approve of torture and assassination in Christ's name to take over a sinful free Democracy which should be run by the swords of evangelicals if necessary to circumvent the constitution and replace it with the over translated by disagreement old snake charmed testament. Jesus has been hired and soon to be retained to work for the new grads of Liberty U. to show you the path...and make you take it...with home made bombs and pepper spray just like Falwell preached...uh, I mean- taught.

3. He did not intend to hurt anyone???
From Mark Uhl's Myspace webpage:

"Christians, fear of death, fear of death. The fear of death shows you don't believe. God needs soldiers to fight so his children may live free. Are you afraid??? I'm not. SEND ME!!!"

http://www.alternet.org/rights/52666/

Not hurt anyone. Right. :eyes:

11. I think that we need to start referring to everyone in this manner
JudeoFacists, AtheoFacists, IslamoFacists and ChristoFacist.

It just helps the debate soooooo much.

6. "Uhl's brother-in-law contacted authorities", that's the only way potential murders can be prevented

12. Sounds like a typical Liberty student.
He is, of course, not above criticism: after all, he only had ONE bomb. ;-)
