Excellent reminder! pandr32 Jul 2022 #6

Exactly what I wanted to say! Cha Jul 2022 #7

Also the easiest convictions ever. Missing plates led to arrest. JanMichael Jul 2022 #8

So the McVeigh arrest was easy. But getting the evidence wnylib Jul 2022 #13

Just saying bad example. No harm in that JanMichael Jul 2022 #18

Not a bad example. The only easy part wnylib Jul 2022 #20

Not a great comparison. former9thward Jul 2022 #35

McVeigh was arrested for not having a license plate on the car he was driving BumRushDaShow Jul 2022 #37

Jan 6th was 18 months ago. former9thward Jul 2022 #38

And I shouldn't even have to point out WHO was in charge of DOJ BumRushDaShow Jul 2022 #40

Nothing you are saying relates to the OP or even the general issue. former9thward Jul 2022 #56

Your recitation of what happened with McVeigh BumRushDaShow Jul 2022 #61

Reno? former9thward Jul 2022 #66

I think you forgot what YOU posted BumRushDaShow Jul 2022 #68

He did do the investigation, MarineCombatEngineer Jul 2022 #69

The poster I replied to said Reno did the investigation. former9thward Jul 2022 #70

You're really nit picking here. MarineCombatEngineer Jul 2022 #71

It is interesting the both you and the other poster are totally ignoring the Unabomber former9thward Jul 2022 #73

You are the one missing the point of the OP BumRushDaShow Jul 2022 #76

I was not the one who claimed Garland was the lead investigator of the Unabomber case. former9thward Jul 2022 #77

Here we go again BumRushDaShow Jul 2022 #78

One fly in the soup...They never pinned down nor exposed the RW network which enabled McVeigh and Ford_Prefect Jul 2022 #36

This recent thread discusses that: sop Jul 2022 #49

Yep there had to be many more people involved yet roam free. JanMichael Jul 2022 #54

And a few who perhaps help pay for it, or enabled the events. Ford_Prefect Jul 2022 #64
