Christian terrorists hijack Mexican plane...
http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5hurKrE3xb7Gfc6iwUeTYJy5slHOgD9AK2FCG5

I picture Timothy McVeigh in a sombrero and a lot of Freepers and teabaggers spontaneously combusting in their struggle to decide whether he's one of them or part of the Hispanic-Mexican "enemies".

2. Your headline is misleading
There was one crazy and you say "terrorists" rather than someone in need of psychiatric help.

You're attempting to make a false connection.

16. no, just have seen too much.
starting with defending catholic priests while the archdiocese was hiding docs, witnesses, and lying through their teeth.

Your view really changes when you sit through hours of video and polaroids of sexual abuse of children, at the hands of a religious organization. Not hatred. Just recognition of evil.

20. Still a broad-brush.
You can't condemn a entire group (with endless sub-cultures and groups) because of your personal experiences with the minority of them.

21. OK, name an archdiocese that did not hide a priest, a document, a rape
of a child.
Seriously. Name just one. Throughout the entire USA. Just one. Only one. The "Innocent" one.

24. Christianity extends beyond Catholicism.
And if we're going to play this game, prove to me that all but one did hide a sex crime.

You're still being a bigot.

8. Is he a religious nut? Check
Is taking over a plane considered an act of terrorism?

Check

Religious terrorist...


Now if he is that nuts, he can try to plead the insanity defense, it does exist in the Mexican Federal Justice Code.

Otherwise, he is looking at 30-40 in the Federal Pokey

23. AbsoLUTELY misleading. It was one crazy man.
The OP's use of the plural was wrong, he knows it, and refuses to admit it.

3. Well, that explains a lot
There's no crazy like god crazy.

I'm just glad it wasn't narcoterrorism. That would have ended very badly for everyone.

6. Why does that read like an Onion article?
9-9-09 is 666 upside down?

Circling Mexico City 7 times?

Wow. That's some certified corn fed crazy there.

9. Listened to quite a bit of the coverage on Mexican Radio
they tried the seven circles, though the pilot landed well before that.

15. And it also looks far less like a failure of security
fake bomb, fake guns... how do you prevent a finger under jacket?

Oy there is still gonna be a systems review from hell, but hey.

Wanna bet that this story will drop? I mean the only good religious terrorists we can have are them Muslim types....

26. Al Jazeera English played a (TV interview?) tape of that guy from before this
hijacking. Looked and sounded "normal" and calmly ranted utter nonsense without drooling and pissing himself. Give him some English language skills and citizenship, and he would appear to be a likely winner in any PublicCon primary contest in the US, since batshit crazy seems to be one of their favorite qualifiers.
