Shots fired, shots fired - Officer down!

UPDATE II: The link to von Brunn's biography I posted is broken, but this is what it said (he has many admirers who quote it online; cutting and pasting this from one of them):

From his biography: "James W. von Brunn holds a BachSci Journalism degree from a mid-Western university where he was president of SAE and played varsity football. During WWII he served as PT-Boat captain, Lt. USNR, receiving a Commendation and four battle stars. For twenty years he was an advertising executive and film-producer in New York City. He is a member of Mensa, the high-IQ society.In 1981 von Brunn attempted to place the treasonous Federal Reserve Board of Governors under legal, non-violent, citizens arrest. He was tried in a Washington, D.C. Superior Court; convicted by a Negro jury, Jew/Negro attorneys, and sentenced to prison for eleven years by a Jew judge. A Jew/Negro/White Court of Appeals denied his appeal. He served 6.5 years in federal prison. He is now an artist and author and lives on Maryland's Eastern Shore."

Now I don't know if all of this is true but, he is an artist, living in Maryland. And the bit of biographical information you can read without "joining," on that same AskArt site, is pretty interesting.

And Oh, Fenty said nothin'.

UPDATE I: 88 year-old, white man from the Eastern Shore! A domestic, dare I say it - Terrorist?

(Nah-h-h-h, Deb! He's just a crackpot - an isolated incident. Gir-r-r-l, where you been? Don't you know we're post-racial?!)

==================================

With all the security measures erected in DC since 9/11, somebody please tell me HOW a man - with a "LONG GUN" - walked up into the FRONT DOOR of the Holocaust Museum in DC - and started shooting at people????? Bo-o-o-o-y, I can just hear the many ways this will play out right now! M-m-m!

I'm sure there'll be a lot of political expediency (make that opportunism) involved in the crossfire! Particularly since, Eric Holder and friends were to attend the play, "Ann & Emmett," (a conversation between Emmett Till and Anne Frank) there at the museum later on tonight. And of course, the Changeling's recent trip to the Middle East and - "The Speech" - will provide plenty of fodder for everyone! I'm going to go listen to Fenty. When I know more, I'll write more.
