After he was taken into custody and during interviews, Quinones "expressed his plans, preparation and intentions to kill President Obama and former President Clinton," according to an affidavit filed in federal cour. "Quinones detailed his studies of Secret Service protocols, sniper techniques and means of disguise and weapons concealment to implement his assassination plans."

A search of his residence resulted in the discovery of 11 long guns, four pistols, multiple rounds of ammunition and dozens of bayonets and knives, according to the affidavit.

Authorities also found books and manuals about FBI hostage rescue teams, Osama bin Laden, Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh, the Russian Mafia and other topics, according to the affidavit signed by FBI and Secret Service agents.

I posted this topic in here so OS could have a decent conversation about it. I didnt feel it was to much politics and more news. Mods if you think that this thread is to much politics please feel free to close it.

DO NOT GET OUT OF HAND PLEASE.

Dang, thats unreal. Wonder why or how he got into the hostage situation to begin with.

There's a way to do this without discussing politics, but somehow I would bet this thread is closed when I wake up tomorrow. Shame.

Anywho, I always wonder if this stuff is more common than is let out. I would imagine at any given time somebody somewhere is planning to kill someone very important and I would imagine that oftentimes that threat is quelled without us ever hearing about it.

In before this gets closed. Pretty sure Jackdog will nail this shut with an air hammer. It is craziness though.

Why would you kill an ex-president? Especially one that hasn't been in office for a decade.

Loony toons.

That's what I was thinking? Makes no sense at all.

I'm gonna close this. History proves it can't be done. I'd rather not ban people, believe it or not. And no, there's nothing inherently wrong with the post...but I'm not of the belief OS can handle it.
