Our local paper, when printing the picture of them, cropped out HER gun, I think to make her somehow more of a sorry soul or martyr or whatever. I doubt that it was just to make it fit the paper.
A couple of weeks ago I was in a Radio Shack (where else are you going to find a tape for an old answering machine when it days "Do NOT use 60 minute tapes" in this machine?)when what appeared to be a husband and wife pair walked in.
She was dressed in one of those things (don't know a chador from a burqa, and don't care to)and he was in normal clothes, jeans, button shirt and sneakers.
It might be profiling and I know he thought I was ogling his wife how could you dressed in something like that?) but I watched them the whole time I was leaving the store. Even backed out the front door.
Probably profiling, but I can't really help it and don't care to if I could. Show up in middle America and make no attempt to blend in and you WILL get stared at, watched and otherwise treated suspiciously!
Nearby college is putting a bunch of them through prison guard school, I think that is probably where they came from.

Too bad she wasn't a premature ejaculator...er bomber...
That crap IS going to end up here, probably in the not too distant future... sigh...
Interesting looking pistols, anyone know what they are?
Looks like a Mak and some kind of Tok derivative.
She looks like Alia from Dune.
That's a Stechkin on the right.
Grrr... bastard gets a Stechkin and I can't have one. Terrible.
