#3 This one looks like a looney.

The other one, however...

"The FBI determined that it did not involve terrorist activity."

Abdallah Karadsheh. So, um, what was the motive?

From Tipper's link:

"On April 4, Abdallah Karadsheh, 21, of Macomb Township led security on a chase around the base at 90 mph, authorities said.

Karadsheh said he was a 'security officer for God' and that if he could reach 120 mph, he would go straight to heaven if killed."

LOL. Remember kids, when in Detroit, don't drink the water.

#4 Variant of 'suicide by cop.'

#6 Detroit is a bastion of Islamic radicalism in the US. If they don't want to deal with it, expect more incidents worse than this one.

Or depend on the power grid.

That's obvious, to check out the response times and effectiveness, bet he didn't plan on catching lead though. (Bit too effective)

#9 The FBI determined that it did not involve terrorist activity.

The FBI is real quick on those disclaimers, just like the El Al counter shooting in LAX. What kind of fools do the FBI think that we are, anyhow?

#10 120 to get to heaven?
and here all I thought that was required was 88 mph and a flux capacitor mounted in a Bricklin...

#11 The FBI determined that it did not involve terrorist activity...... but a shovel and some oats were found in the car and the bureau now has conclusive evidence of a link to the grave and demise of Jimmy Hoffa.

Good work "Special Agents."

#13 Darwin award.

#14 The CURRENT intrusion, the guy that got killed, seems to have been a run-of-the-mill nutjob out to commit suicide in an attention-getting way. The April 4 intrusion, by Karadsheh, looks more like an Islamic nutjob (redundency alert); that one may well have had terrorist implications, and I fail to understand why the FBI would determine otherwise so quickly.
