FBI Investigating Reports Of 17 Men Chanting, Firing Off Shots In Apple Valley « CBS Los Angeles

This sounds like a terrorist training camp. I hope the police keep an eye on these guys, even though they had to let them go. Seventeen men were firing over a hundred rounds in Apple Valley and chanting "Allah Akbar-type stuff."

A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People, except those of middle eastern decent, to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

Their rights were upheld because the police let them go since their guns were registered. And I believe it was the right thing to do. But that still deserves watching in my opinion. You know any homegrown right-leaning militia is going to be watched by the feds, and so should these guys.

This sounds like a weekend at my brother's house with his friends shooting at cans out in the woods. Trashy, yes. But illegal? Cause for worry? I guess not unless you're brown.

The police report is suspect, too. Wearing turbans? Not unless they're Sikhs. Different religion.

It was the chanting while shooting that concerns me. I actually don't worry too much about it, but thought it sounded strange. Do they think just because they are out in the country no one can hear them? Apparently other people were concerned enough to call 9/11. It could be totally innocent, but after San Bernadino it warrants watching.

Yeah, when I read " turban" I thought the same thing, too.

Then I came across this link that shows different types of turbans.

I'm sure the terror watch list just grew by 17 people.

From behind our property [by miles] on one side, is a farm but in the opposite direction is the highway. Still, I've heard that the farmer has been known to shoot animals that come onto their property. So, when one hears gun shots, could it be the farmer or could it be from a car (confused backfiring or a case of road rage)?


Yet, like others have already mentioned, it would be nice to know if authorities are keeping up their vigilance to ensure safety of the citizenry.

They are just exercising their 2nd amendment rights. What's the problem??? Is this only apply if you are of a certain ethnic decent? Oh well.
