Was it Militia men/White supremacists types or Al Queda or something else? [View all]

I am firmly in the camp this act was perpretrated by a Militia man group or White supremacist types or angry racist white men who love guns and who have had a burning hatred for Obama and the government, ever since the inaugeration. So, what does your gut or intuition tell you and who do you think was responsible?

Thanks for partcipating.

Actually, it's "Dildos." Just thought I'd point that out. But we do get the picture. kysrsoze Apr 2013 #14

No you did not. Dildo and Dildoe are both acceptable. MattBaggins Apr 2013 #33
