    Breaking News from Fox, apparently the suspect has what is called a dead man's switch, basically if he is shot or incapicated his bomb will go off:eek:

    Fox News stole that from 24. Next, they'll report that Jack Bauer has been sent in to negotiate/ kick the crap out of him.

    MSNBC's report has a picture of the guy, here. He's not any kind of racist or supremacist - he's an equal-opportunity misanthrope.

    Prediction: no-one will be able to talk about the world's population problems for years to come; anyone who does will be labelled crazy and treated with suspicion. :rolleyes:

    Tune out of it tbh.. that shit rots your brain. You'll hear what the outcome is in due course.. it's better than listening to idiot journos falling over each other and repeating everything hundreds of times without ever finding anything out that won't be disclosed when it ends

    The hostages are safe apparently. Shot and in custody (the suspect not the hostages). However this turns out he's giving up his home and leisure.

    Lee, thought to be a former employee of the Discovery channel, was said to have "metallic canisters devices" strapped to his front and back when he burst into the office block at lunchtime.



    Joke 1: "Hey guys, I bought you all a pepsBANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANG!!"

    Joke 2: "Discovery Channel Hostage taker, mythbusted by cops"

    Joke 3 : Coke found strapped to gunmans chest...




    sorry, they are pretty bad!
