Wonder if he has any ties to specific eco-terrorism groups?

Or Glenn Beck - they wanted him arrested.

But I guess he's just an isolated nut since he's of the far-far-far-left fringe...

Suspect in Maryland hostage situation published angry online manifesto - CNN.com
Just Scott Roeder was an isolated nut, though celebrated by some.. I think this guy is an isolated nut, though he may be celebrated by some.

This guy's ideals originate in some perceived logic and perhaps are valid, but his illogical mind reacts in an illogical manner. He methodically loaded up some guns, strapped a bomb to himself, and took a perceived threat (Discovery) hostage. The frequency to which these type of people exist and carry out such plans logically leads to him being a lone nutcase.

Unless there are a few accomplices - then I would say a "group of nutcases".

He may have gone so far left that he went right:

5. Immigration: Programs must be developed to find solutions to stopping ALL immigration pollution and the anchor baby filth that follows that. Find solutions to stopping it. Call for people in the world to develop solutions to stop it completely and permanently. Find solutions FOR these countries so they stop sending their breeding populations to the US and the world to seek jobs and therefore breed more unwanted pollution babies. FIND SOLUTIONS FOR THEM TO STOP THEIR HUMAN GROWTH AND THE EXPORTATION OF THAT DISGUSTING FILTH! (The first world is feeding the population growth of the Third World and those human families are going to where the food is! They must stop procreating new humans looking for nonexistant jobs!)

This guy is as crazy as that anti-abortion Atlanta Olympics bomber. Actually, the current dude is one level under the Atlanta guy. If the lunatic actually pulls the trigger it will be a depressingly sad ending that will put him at the top of the crazy scale.

The danger of anyone who is truly crazy getting obsessed with an ideology= most dangerous person possible.

I think some Islamic extremists fit this bill.

Family is being interviewed on-air. This guy seems to have been a long term wack-a-doodle.

The media, as usual, is all over it. I'm sure we will see an interview with the perps dog before the night is over.

We have to stop these left-wing terrorists. Seems like they've been very active lately.

Imagine if he were a conservative saying that he was spurred on by Glenn Beck.

Since he's a liberal/progressive, the MSM will let this story die quickly, regardless of the outcome. Especially since he is a disciple of Al Gore.
