From CBS News: "It’s hard to believe that exactly 13 years have passed since Timothy McVeigh, Terry Nichols, and perhaps “others unknown” orchestrated the destruction of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. At the time of the truck bombing, on April 19, 1995, the crime was the worst in American history - 168 people were killed and hundreds more wounded and scarred. Since then, of course, we have come to know mass criminality on a much larger scale. The terror attacks on America on September 11, 2001 were an order of magnitude more profound and deadly than the homegrown terror that spurred McVeigh and Company into action.
(Oddly enough, McVeigh was executed [the first federal execution since 1963] four months before the 9.11 attacks. His final meal? Two pints of mint chocolate chip ice cream. Typical...)
Rico says it doesn't matter if you get killed by stupid white punks in Oklahoma or stupid Arab punks in New York, you're still dead and they're still stupid terrorists...
