Paintball Terrorists

Oh you've got to read about the "terror plot" that is causing the current Right Wing multiple orgasm.

• These guys were "planning to use automatic weapons to shoot soldiers at the Army post." Yeah - that'd work well. Just drive up to an army post and, uh, wait! Those guys have guns too! RUN AWAY!!!!!!

• They played paintball to practice their plot. OhHolyCrap that's funny. I wonder if they played with any unwitting Right Wing bloggers during their warrior training.

• This has got to be the best: "The Newark Star-Ledger reported on its Web site that the men took a videotape of their practice sessions to a store to have it burned to a DVD, and that a store employee contacted the FBI because of the video's contents."

Now that is some serious terrah minds right there. I wonder if they rented 300 - and Girls gone Wild - to get themselves fired up while they were waiting for their VHS tape to be magically turned into a DVD.

• An officer sums up the case: "While authorities are glad to have arrested them, the individuals are 'hardly hard core terrorists," one law enforcement source said. Another source said that while the allegations are 'troubling, they are 'not the type that made the hair on the back of your neck stand up.' "

Not unless you're a Right Wing Pant Wetter War Blogger.

You find this *amusing*? You *really* think that they were planning on attacking a base, but would retreat as soon as anyone with a gun presented themselves?

I'd hate to hear what you'd say to the families of the soldiers killed, even if they used only guns, and "only" killed a couple of guys before being killed themselves.

I don't think your snide laughter at the "bumbling" attack would go over very well.

The sad thing is, every time something tragic along these lines DOES happen, we know there are folks like you snickering in your bedroom, behind a computer screen. And sadly, we know you'll ALWAYS be there laughing, as long as someone keeps this country free.

I know a family of a soldier killed. And you don't get to know what I said to her.

And you'e repulsive. And you're anonymous, behind a computer screen. And repulsive.
