"Federal Judge David Coar said Tuesday he didn''t believe Shareef was evil. But he said people could have been severely hurt if federal agents hadn''t broken up the plot." Severely hurt? How about killed and maimed??

Hmmm...things have changed. In the Watergate era, Nixon''s cronies openly admit they sat around a table and make death plots against people like Jack Anderson. It was considered legal because they didn''t act on it. Now a loner, with no explosives, is convicted? Of what?

This further illustrates the disparity of our sentencing system. Someone convicted of manslaughter, taking a life, usually gets less time in jail then he did. Most drug possession crimes get more then he did. It indicates how little we value our life. Also, if it had been a christian the sentence would have been much longer. We need uniform sentencing with some reasonable basis. It could be done. To have the subjective system that we do have leaves it possible for a murderer to walk free in a couple of years and a jaywalker to spend life in jail. There is no rhyme or reason to sentences, just whatever mood the judge is in on the day. It''''s the biggest travesty in our judicial system today. Don''t get me wrong, he needs to be confined, he''s dangerous. But 35 years fro "plotting" when people who actually kill get less?

Islam: Religion of Peace, maybe that should be Religion of Blowing People INTO Pieces. Sick freaks. Thank goodness they caught the loon.

Shareef was a lone wolf, with no ties to any terrorist organization. He never acquired any grenades, and he never harmed anyone. He will spend three decades in prison for thought crimes. What an interesting trend in government control of the people.
