Men Behaving Oddly
Have you seen these men?
The FBI wants to question two men who were described as behaving oddly on a Washington state ferry earlier this summer.
Members of the public and ferry workers reported the men to authorities after the two were seen pacing in areas of the boat, including a cargo hold, as if trying to measure distances, FBI Special Agent Larry Carr said Tuesday.
The men were also seen about two months ago taking photographs of the ferries — including restricted areas — and studying an emergency evacuation poster.
The men were spotted on multiple ferries and ferry routes, Carr said.
You’d be amazed what they look like:
Some news organizations have refused to publish the photos, saying the men have not been accused of a crime. It appears the men could be of Middle Eastern origin.
Although the initial FBI news release on the men did not discuss their possible ethnicity, “We just want to ensure that there is just one standard being implemented for suspicious behavior for both people who appear to be Middle Eastern and those who appear not to be Middle Eastern,” said Naseem Tuffaha of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee.
You got it, Naseem. The next time Conan O’Brien is seen pacing off a ferry cargo hold, it’ll be front page news.
Michelle Malkin had this a week ago (what else is new?), and the papers still haven’t run the pictures.
What idiots. Seattle will get the terrorism it deserves.
Or don’t you remember? It was only just over a year ago.
