Times Square Terror Suspect
Let me get this straight...
This Faisal Shahzad guy (Times Square attempted bomber):
* Purchased a house in an upper-middle class neighborhood in Bridgeport, Conn.
* Boarded a plane for Dubai
* Paid $1,300 cash for an SUV
* Enrolled in the University of Bridgeport for an MBA in 2005.
* Had his apartment remodeled
* Was granted a work visa
...and yet there's absolutely no mention of what he did for a living, his employment status, his funding source, ect. from the press.
If you're going to denote his college and $218,400 home, I would think it's at least worth mentioning whether or not he worked in xyz position at xyz company.
Somebody, please FOLLOW THE MONEY!
And yes, the vendors are heroes. You'd be surprised at the number of New Yorkers who aren't aware of their surroundings. This is classic...

Illiterate Hatred
Hi.
Secret:
When I get really REALLY BORED, I like to browse through all the illiterate hatred on the comment section of Yahoo! News and other news outlets. It is inversely entertaining and terrifying that some of these ubiquitous views run rampant.
I believe the reporters understand this phenomenon which may explain why they resolve to poor journalism, irrelevant titles and exaggerating every story to 10x magnification in an effort to draw emotions and comments…and emotional comments. Some are simply bad reporters.
The following is my supercilious list of my Top 10 Favorite Category of Posters:
10. "Let's nuke 'em to the Stone Age!" highly inarticulate belligerents.
9. “Who is dumber: Bush or Obama?” great debaters.
8. Tie: Islam is all about violence. Quotes the Holy Quran;
Christianity is guilty of violence, too. Quotes the Holy Bible and/or historical facts.
7. Tie: Liberals are too liberal to know what's really going on in this country;
Conservatives are too conservative to know what's really going on in this country.
6. The Zionists know the full story. The Jew-owned media is keeping it from us.
5. Calling someone an "idiot" while, too, committing spelling and grammatical mishaps. Highlighting the poor spelling of a previous poster in a comment containing misspelled words. (See “to/too”, “your/you’re”)
4. Tie: The posters of super random racially-charged comments;
The bait-eaters of super random racially-charged comments that ignite the always reliable Internet Race Wars (IRW).
3. Posting comments for no other purpose than to complain about receiving low ratings only to receive additional fresh low ratings.
2. Posing as someone of a different race, gender, national origin, sexual orientation, etc. to better attract unbelievers to your message…and failing miserably to conceal your plot.
And finally,
1. The poster who actually leaves an intelligent factually accurate argument…in 5-paragraph essay form!
You are simply guilty by association. Moreover, I find these sorts of sermons to be a senseless ego-boosting activity. [Ouchies!]
While it is a great to express your views and some of these comments may hold weight in a debate, 9 out of 10 times, they are completely irrelevant to the story.
