    Thank God, he didn't finish it!

    But, never the facts get in the way of a good story.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      In the twitter feed:

      Does that count as "attempted Lego construction"? Or "conspiracy to commit Lego construction"?

      Or "intent to commit conspiracy to attempt to construct with Legos"?

        It’s fun but at trial we will get to see the real stuff. Let’s bookmark this page to see what the reality is.

        In the same filing, feds noted that Morss had sketched out plans to form a militia in a notebook titled “Step by Step To Create Hometown Militia,” according to Business Insider. Some of the steps included “Ambush,” “Battle Drills” and “Formations.”

        Shhh… don’t look here, let’s talk about the lego set.

          You said that earlier, and I don't dispute any of that. The guy's a whacko, and probably a dangerous one at that.

          I just find it that everyone was frothing over the Lego story, and now...it's not true.

            It wasn’t the media. The FBI affidavit says fully constructed but references “law enforcement” as stating it. So who is “law enforcement” ? Also haven’t seen “law enforcement” backtrack but I am assuming the tweeter isn’t making stuff up.

              I agree - he's probably toast. You're misunderstanding my comments.

              My point is that everyone said "LOOK A THAT! He had a model of the CAPITOL BUILDING!" OMG!!!!

              And, now, in paragraph 2 of this:

              Yeah, it's unassembled.

              Is it possible that Kelly lied? Yeah.

              Is it more likely that LEOs fucked up? Yeah, more possible.

                So, apparently he wasn't smart enough or disciplined enough to finish the Lego set he'd bought for Christ alone knows what reason, but it probably wasn't to build with his children.

                Was anybody really expecting the FBI to arrest a traveling band of rocket scientists?

                I was only joking

                  George

                  I do think you have a valid point and I note in the bin other lego sets partially or completely finished. Probably the bin was brought in by law enforcement to collect evidence.

                  The real risk to law enforcement credibility is if the lego being fully constructed was not a miscommunication but rather a pattern of misconstruing evidence, what and who can we believe?

                  On balance I do think the perp has a lot to overcome to be in fact innocent. I frankly don’t know if running the discrepancy into the ground is worth it but I do think the media should note the correction since they relied on FBI and law enforcement avvidavit(s) for their reporting.

                      So reporters are trying to validate Carlson’s claims and provide interesting new details that would be relevant.

                      Carlson is holding his cards close to what he is alleging. He’s got a humdinger of a case if he has the smoking gun. No one has seen it yet.

                        Wouldn't it be hilarious if Tucker's 'whistleblower' worked for an intelligence service other than the USA?

                        Not that I've got anything to substantiate that idea or anything.

                            Lucas had to plot out how to build a militia 4 years ago for history class.

                            I've probably got notes on how to overthrow the government from an old role-playing game ten years ago. There's a decent chance that notebook is in my pile of crap.

                              Does that count as "attempted Lego construction"? Or "conspiracy to commit Lego construction"?

                              Or "intent to commit conspiracy to attempt to construct with Legos"?

                              It’s fun but at trial we will get to see the real stuff. Let’s bookmark this page to see what the reality is.

                              In the same filing, feds noted that Morss had sketched out plans to form a militia in a notebook titled “Step by Step To Create Hometown Militia,” according to Business Insider. Some of the steps included “Ambush,” “Battle Drills” and “Formations.”

                              Shhh… don’t look here, let’s talk about the lego set.

                              Lucas had to plot out how to build a militia 4 years ago for history class.

                              I've probably got notes on how to overthrow the government from an old role-playing game ten years ago. There's a decent chance that notebook is in my pile of crap.

                              While that could be motive, you still need means and opportunity so it doesn’t work that way.
