BREAKING: FEDERAL COURTHOUSE IN TAMPA EVACUATED

Suspicious napsack with an unknown substance found.

Developing...

this is getting so crazy.

Does this mean we have to avoid all federal buildings for the next few years?

I was assisting my boss defend a guy in federal court the a.m. of 9/11. The judge was not concerned about the attack, he did not follow Asswipes orders to shut down the courthouse, he "knew" we were safe. We selected a jury (despite the fact that jurors were receiving calls from family members during the breaks insisting they leave the courthouse) and began the 1st day of the trial. Nothing stopped it. Everyone else in the building had evacuated, all that remained were the defense, prosecution, jury, judge two members of his staff and a handful of marshals. Witnesses had to wait outside in their cars until we went down to ask the marshals to let them in. :shrug:

without a terrorist threat thrown into the mix!

Right after they announce a raised terror alert for Florida.

If they blow up abortion clinics, they wouldnt blow up a courthouse?

a three ring circus. America is really losing it's collective mind. It's a frenzy that rivals 911.

Culture of Life...we'll kill you if you don't agree.

It'll only get worse once Terri passes on.

Precious time looking for a bomb planted by the Fundies.

/sarcasm off/

But it won't be called "terrorism"

snork

and their supporters take things into their own hands. Afterall, when you're RIGHT, you have the right to take things into your own hands. They are responsible for Timothy McVeigh and a lot more. Why does anyone doubt some kind of holocaust under their domination?

Killing Judges in Atlanta, bad. Berry, berry bad.

Killing Judges in Tampa, good. Berry, berry good.

and btw here's to you ,Slutty Peggy Noonan.......
:spank: FUCK You, Eva Braun!":grr:

All is okay because God is on their side.

Also wasn't this the modus operendi of the Rudolph abortion clinic bombings as well...using one pack to get the bomb squad's attention and a second that killed people.

The over reaching by the fundies is scary and hopefully others are seeing this as well. They make the most noise, get all the corporate media coverage, but hopefully in many private homes tonight there are people who voted for this regime last November who are thinking they made a big mistake.

Oh, wait. Not Muslims. Never mind.

The streets surrounding the federal courthouse in downtown Tampa, Florida, are blocked off after a suspicious package was found outside the building.

The black backpack was spotted by courthouse security just before 8 p.m. local time.

The discovery was made at the same time a hearing was taking place in the case of Terri Schiavo.

DeLay, Jeb!, and W, not to mention Terry have driven the most die hard "believers" into a frenzy. As the media focuses on this... the frenzy over each move just grows stonger. I fear some kind of violent reaction. I do hope this is a false alarm. It will create a whole extra circus if someone had attempted to do harm at the court house. Then again perhaps this will require heightened security there - which I sense is very important.

Now the same people are on my TV referring to judges as murderers and threatening them; some of them are in the US Congress. Did we NOT just have a judges' husband and mother murdered AND murders inside an Atlanta courtroom?

foot in that sewer again. I miss the beaches, a little, but not the traffic, the crime, the overcrowding, the pollution, or the pervasive insanity.

Yup. The disgruntled dysfunctionals show their all . . .

This is reminiscent of the local county family/probate courthouse wherein each and every Thursday was heard custody matters (including guardianships a la Terri Schiavo) . . .

BINGO! A bomb scare. So much so, that the "joke" went that "Thursdays are Bomb Day!" dress accordingly during New England's harsh winters!

No, I'm not kidding. The soup got even thicker when child support days were heard! So is the life of the legal and judicial professionals, and courthouse staff . . .

Send an asteroid or something. This world is so fucked up.

America is being held hostage (death from a thousand paper cuts) by these lunatics.

The media puts these lunatics on national television. Probably a great recruitment vehicle for like-minded lunatics.

No surprise the lunatics may get violent.

Even if this is a false alarm, think of all the woman's clinic bombings and related murders. Think about the hate rhetoric that is directed toward gays, minorities, the poor (lazy), welfare queens (corporations excluded, naturally). They just keep chipping away at the fabric of society one "sinner" at a time.

If they harm one judge, Michael Schiavo or his family and doctors... what then? More death by a thousand paper cut?

They are cowards. They are terrorists more dangerous than OBL. Why don't they, including monkey boy and his band of neocons, just PULL OUR PLUG and mercifully draw the line in the sand... we're either with them or prepare for war.

I'm tired of the BS. Let them go ahead and dismantle the Constitution and just declare America a theocracy. Give us a reason to fight.

cause. They believe God calls upon them to take these risks to save other lives. Kill some to save others.

no disrespect for any or all parties (except the fundies, of course)
