Close your eyes an imagine the press reaction if this were an Arab man, and not a white terrorist. Never mind that the second worst terror attack in American history was in Oklahoma, and committed by people with the same political beliefs as this guy.</p>

1. I know. Somehow it does not register as terra to people. Most folks don't

even remember Theodore Kaczynski.

7. The difference there

is he was paranoid schizophrenic, not part of a group.

2. Another reason why everyone should read a book titled "The Terrorist Next Door."

After all, by whom was the SECOND worst terrorist attack on US soil perpetrated?

A right-wing white guy, that's who. The rightwingers do seem to forget that.

4. The right wingers haven't forgotten that, they claim he was the greatest american

to have lived in the last 30 years. After all he was just standing up to Clinton and Reno's murder of those nice religious people in Waco, the Saintly Branch Dividends who were true Christians of the highest order that done nothing to bring Reno's or Clinton's wraith down on their saintly souls. Just don't expect to hear them admit that outside their party. But the Libertarians snitched them out by claiming the government had no business serving warrants on a religious institution.

3. Homegrown Terra, just as deadly.

6. I was always worried that I would be accused of something like this...

I used to make prop lightsabers and sell them online, hence my buying of a lot of weird chemicals(mostly epoxies and glues), random bits of metal and/or plastic, and lots of tubes. Hopefully my website, ebay account and the records from paypal and ebay would be enough to convince them I'm not a terra-rist. :)
