So which is it? Are they recent immigrants (been here a year or less) or the more current info that I'm hearing that they've been here 10 years or more?

Also, I'm always amazed by the "ant pile" tactics of my police brethren when there is a hostage/barricaded person situation. Put as many guys with guns as you can within 30 yards of the location. Nevermind that you think this guy has explosives and that, with AR-15's and other assault rifles, you could create a 360 degree field of fire with 5-10 officers from 50 yards or more away with precision. And, for the love of God, don't get me started on the media's description as they try to give a play by play...pathetic.

In this case, don't you mean reactionary domestic liberals? They hate Christianity, are against the war on terror, and were collecting a government check because they were too lazy to work, after al

As I look at a yahoo article titled "Simple Bosyon Bonb Plot Hatched Without Foreign Help, Authorities believe", I wonder why the media is wanting to dismiss outside help so quickly. Oh, and the sou

What we need are more extensive background checks for those wanting to purchase bombs. That'll end this crap! Rick

One of he brothers has been here since 7th grade, the older is also a us citizen but has not spent as much time here.

They've already interviewed their father who had no idea of his sons involvement.

the uncle just spoke...very powerful statement - angry at his nephews saying that they were losers and asked for forgiveness to the family from the victims. said the remaining brother should turn himself in. Reminds us that we can't blame the entire country and people where they came from for this incident.

The uncle's spot on. Those boys were wasted space and it's even worse because they were far luckier than many of the other Chechens who either didn't make it out of Chechnya or died in the fighting. Others from that same conflict came here and made good on the opportunity - these jackarounds look like they took it with them.

Yep. There are mentally deranged knucklheads everywhere. Some have guns. Some have bombs.

What a crazy week. And I watched the Red Dawn remake yesterday afternoon...great movie but might make you paranoid if you watch it before things calm down a bit!

      We should really stop these threads. It’s just depressing because the only conclusion is that no one cares about us.

      The Mean Green nickname was used a lot during the Fry era. There were "Mean Green And Proud Of It" bumper stickers and buttons. Almost every other bumper sticker used the words "Mean Green." Before football and especially basketball games....the fans would start chanting....."Bring Out The Mean Green!....Bring Out The Mean Green!....."Bring Out The Mean Green!".....

      ***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      In Slovenia with the wife and can’t watch the game later so will just post now that I am really disappointed in how we played.

      Opps! Jim Hobdy created the UNT Battle Flag in 1986 and WAS NOT involved with Rick Spear's design of the flying worm which was adopted by Hayden Fry and used during his tenure.My bad. It is a shame that we didn't stick with it and it certainly separated us from any other eagle mascot. However if you google history of Mean Green knickname you will find the credit for its universal usage by UNT attributed to Rick Villareal, not Hayden Fry.

      I don't think Hayden did this. Perhaps you could provide some reference as I can't recall the term "mean green " applying to our team as a whole until the 2000's. Yes the eagle is our mascot and mean green is the nickname of our team. Also I believe Jim Hobney [sic] was also involved in the creation of the flying worm bet can't exactly remember how. Maybe you know.
