Four law enforcement sources familiar with the case told NBC New York that the suspects were David Anderson and Francine Graham.
According to three sources, Anderson was a one-time follower of the Black Hebrew Israelite movement, whose members believe they are descendants of the ancient Israelites and may adhere to both Christian and Judaic beliefs, and his social media pages include anti-police and anti-Jewish writings. Investigators are looking to see if it was Anderson himself who posted that material.
Inside the van used by Anderson and Graham was a note with religious writings, the three sources said.

That's fine. I get really annoyed when people post things here that have no credence.

This is the reality all gun owners and their apologists want for this country by clinging to guns.
