Sounds like they found a lot stuff but no rocket launcher. Do love the comments, though. The show a picture of the two men arrested -- one white, one black. Because no race is mentioned in the article, it obviously has to be people of color. Gotta love the bigoted mind that can't make the effort to ascertain facts right in front of them.

I don't understand. I didn't see any reference to race in the article.

It was in the comments below the article. The point was they showed pictures of the men arrested but made NO mention of race. It was idjits who commented and assumed the bad guys were black. Bah!

Bah!

You are so right.

That has almost become the standard of what the populace "assumes!"

Ah, the comments below the article...........that's where the idiots ply their trade.

The OP pointed out that we have idiots close by who want to launch rockets at the police.

Glad they got busted.

I'm glad they got busted but the headline had nothing to do with the true story. These weren't bad guys who were going to attack police. These were bad guys who had the usual arsenal to protect their drug business. The rocket launcher was a bogus tip. The drugs, guns and body armor were the real thing.
