To return to the question which has been bothering me. I get that the accusation by an ex-GF that "He's making bombs in the RV!" isn't enough to get a warrant.

This story is about a black man who was arrested handcuffed and detained while eating out with his family because he "matched the description of a Black man with dreadlocks who was suspected of using stolen credit cards." Forget for a second the whole racial and COVID subtexts: just a chance similarity is enough to get him handcuffed? If that is enough evidence to get him detained why is the explosives allegation not enough to prompt an investigation? Maybe it's a legal difference between Tennessee and Virginia; or is as simple as TN was at his home and the VA guy was out in public at the mall?

Just the usual attacks in one of the other of the few active threads from Joe and Gob because I dare to be intelligent, highly educated and a former university professor.

Just curious, BSG... did you know Katie Barefoot?  Did you know she was a polymath?  Did you know she spoke/read/understood at least four different languages?  Did you know that she had collaborated with/translated an article by Elie Wiesel for a Sunday newspaper magazine supplement?  Did you know that she played several different musical instruments?  Did you know she was active in the late Paul Wellstone's final campaign for US Senator?

And lastly, did you know that she also had a valid claim to the title "Doctor" as she too held a PhD (from Brandeis University, if I recall correctly)?

No, you probably didn't .... because unlike you, she wasn't the kind of person WHO WOULD BEAT YOU OVER THE HEAD WITH IT EVERY FUCKING CHANCE SHE GOT!!!!

Is this the person you all referring to; the facts don't seem to match; it appears she is dead, so who was she?

Ms. Katie Barefoot
Hi all! My name is Katie Barefoot and I am so excited to be your Social Studies teacher the 2020-2021 school year! We will be learning lots of interesting facts about the Ancient Civilizations of Mesopotamia, India, China, Egypt, Greece, Rome, Mesoamerica, and the Aztecs, Mayans, and Incas.
Facts about me:
-This is my 19th year teaching;my 4th year at Archer Lodge Middle
-I have 2 children. A son who is in high school at SSS and my daughter is also a Gator in 7th grade this year
-I love to be active and outdoors
-My favorite color is PURPLE!
-Teaching is my passion!
Soon, I’ll post my farewell message. The end is starting to get close. There are many misconceptions about me, and before I go, to live with my ancestors on the steppes, I want to set the record straight.

That's typical FBI incompetence. They could have prevented the Parkland School Shooting, interfered with and possibly prevented 9/11, and never could find Whitey Bulger or Ted Kazcinski. But if a Super Bowl jersey is stolen they're on it.
Thank you RBG wherever you are!

You can blame the FBI for a lot but AFAIK they were involved neither in the events before the Nashville bombing not the Virginia Beach incident.

Not the same person. She was not a teacher, was not married, and did not have children.
This appears to be someone from North Carolina (the reference to her daughter who 'is also a Gator'; Archer Lodge Middle School in Wendell NC is "the home of the Gators").   The Katie Barefoot I'm referring to was a Minnesota native.
