Detroit Dump

Excuse me while I go to the toilet.

Here is what I brought in to read:

"Man accused in plot to attack mosque bragged beforehand, bar worker says" February 01, 2011|Associated Press

DETROIT — Hours before his arrest outside a popular Detroit-area mosque, a 63-year-old California man held court at a nearby sports bar, telling an employee that he was a Vietnam veteran-turned Muslim holy warrior, that he planned to set off a “big explosion,’’ and that he was “going to be part of making history,’’ the employees said yesterday.

A Muslim holy warrior bombing a mosque?

Joe Nahhas, an operations manager at the J.S. Fields bar in Detroit, said a man identified after his arrest as Roger Stockham ordered a double Scotch on the rocks on Jan. 24 and told him he planned to cause an explosion that would be “here, there, the mosque.’’ Stockham — who is bipolar and suffers from other psychiatric disorders, according to a lawyer who represented him in a previous case — was wearing a Vietnam War veteran hat and said he is a Muslim and a member of an Indonesian mujahedeen group, Nahhas said.  

Oh, no, ANOTHER DRUGGED UP CRAZY!

Nahhas said he called 911 to report the encounter, and police have said a tip preceded Stockham’s arrest near the Islamic Center of America in neighboring Dearborn a few hours later. Police said when officers pulled over Stockham’s car, he was wearing a ski mask and traveling with open alcohol containers, spray paint, and more than two dozen powerful fireworks....    

Those were the "explosives"  he had while DRIVING DRUNK in the car? 

Can you say STAGED SET-UP?
