Yeah, I want to know his race, height, weight, markings, clothing, everything anybody knows, and I sure as hell want to know if he went north or south on I-95. He should be in custody by now. Terrorism is color-blind. Look at McVeigh, Bin Laden, John Muhhamed, Jose Padilla...a white former military man, a Saudi elite gone radical, a black male with anger issues about his ex and a Hispanic ex-con who hates America...all of them terrorist nuts, but with different gripes.

Hmmm.....diesel fuel and ammonium nitrate.
Do you folks know what ANFO is? A tanker truck of diesel is worth about $20000 and would be extremely difficult for a thief to "fence". It would however make one hell of a bomb if mixed with a truck load of ammonium nitrate.

Put a Lojack tracking device on each one. Maybe two, with one hidden where it can't be found or accessed. Problem solved!

[No difficult issues, only stupid people!]

I'm suprised it has not happend sooner
The gas station will become the new bank! best off there are no cameras!or security

JLM - as much as race and terror do. I am simply pointing out that all those here bashing the chimp are not liberals. I am a lot of things, but never that.

This is just another platform used to de-program citizens from the cult of mainstream thought.

Believe it, the chimp cares nothing for you JLM unless you are pulling his strings or stuffing cash in his pockets.

Bush is a globalist puppet, deluded and ignorant, he is being used to destroy what is left of US sovereignty and law, under the guise of making us all "safe" from the war he and his minions created.

Wait a minute, what does this have to do with illegal immigration? Why am I reading comments about that when this has to do with theft? And look at the reality you racist, our companies are closing up and moving to Mexico. Hershey Chocolate for one is closing "6" plants because they found they can find "BETTER" workers and pay them less for more production. It seems to me that your just a lazy glutton who's running out of avenues to live that sort of lifestyle. Cmon and start looking for the real threat, terrorism. Why are you picking on Mexicans when none have done any terrorist activities. And why do we pay folks from other countries to come work, tax free, with benefits and also getting 20k bonuses every year they stay here. I know of several from the UK, Germany, Ireland etc... Why is it only those that are caucasion are admited into this elite club? Why are Canadians allowed to come in and out freely, which is where the terrorist came from in 09/11. Geez people, stop being so ignorant and realize there's more important issues at hand.

I found this pretty funny:

I will get my news from the Drudge report, at least they are not bias...

I hope that was a joke.

I also love how any Bush hater is labeled a liberal cry baby. Last time I looked, there were plenty of Rebulicans that weren't very happy with him.

All you Christian right wing freaks need to go jump off a cliff. Don't worry, God will save you.

Liberal numbskulls? I'm a Republican who bashed Bush at every opportunity. Better wake up abut Bush's so-called conservatism and its impact on the GOP, or find conservatives sitting at home on election day.

GB- and that has WHAT to do with the tanker hijacking......?

Hey JLM,

If you haven't noticed it yet, most of the people who truly detest the Chimperor are hard core conservatives. Bush is the WORST thing to happen to real conservatism in 100 years.

There's no need for a plate number. All trucks and tankers carrying hazardous cargo are tracked by satellite as required by the Patriot Act. No doubt the dum-dum theif has been apprehended.

GPS trackers are the size of a candy bar, and any respectable trucking company should have them on all their vehicles to know where they are at any time. Too bad if the unions don't like it; unions are outdated relics from the 19th century that are no longer relevant, and really have no place in modern society, other than for political reasons, oh, yeah, and money.

If ABC indeed removed the robbers race, they have truly sunk to news lows in journalism and all three of the networks are worthless, liberal, politically correct cesspools that would rather report sugar coated, PC news, rather than the facts that might help catch the criminal. I refuse to watch television anymore & canceled my cable. I will get my news from the Drudge report, at least they are not bias...

A tanker gets hijacked and all you liberal numbskulls can talk about it is Bush. Wow.

I agree with other posters...somebody stealing a full tanker full of diesel is not just after fuel to run their personal vehicle. This is a higher level theft that does deserve utmost attention to determine that someone is not out to blow up a building somewhere. I don't believe in paranoia and I don't think every criminal action has a terroristic threat attached. However, a tanker full of diesel fuel does lend towards a larger purpose than just "stealing some gas." There is a perspective that needs to be placed here. Also....I can't believe ABC removed the description of the robber simply because some people thought it was racist to divulge what color his skin was. That is so ridiculous....that is well beyond being politically correct.

This was a few years ago, but kinda shows a snapshot of time where simular things happened. I won't believe its terrorism, unless there is more to go on.

It's not the president's fault. Honestly, did no one take government in high school or college? the president really doesn't have that much power. It only appears that way. If you knew anything, you would know that Congress is more powerful than the president. The President can't just say "I'm going to let in any immigrant who wants to come into the US." Congress and the Supreme Court would stop him. And how the hell do you draw any connections between this incident and immigration? The article never links the two. You're just whining and complaining about a president you don't like. To clear things up: I'm not especially fond of Bush either. I don't like a lot of the ideas he brings before Congress, but at least I know better than to blame everything on him.

Well... Under Bush's new law, if there is an act of terrorism, he can declare martial law & stay in power as long as he see's fit. So... From King George to King George in 231 years.

BTW.. Its not the price of oil thats going up... Its the VALUE OF THE DOLLAR that is going down..

Buy gold....

This would not happen if dumb bush was not letting all the illegals into the US...
that is what this comes down to, all the violence we been seeing is all about immigration..
Crap, I know I am losing my last wits over this dumb pres. that these dumb people elected in for 8 years.

i hope the guy gets away

Several months ago in my home state a young man was arrested, detained and deported for having several fake id's.
With those id's he set himself up with cdl classes, specifically for driving hazardous chemicals via semi's. The only reason he was caught was because the driving school teachers were suspicious that he didn't want to learn how to back up.

Talk about drama kings - CNN is the KING !

Looks like some black guy stole a tanker because it was a "crime of opportunuity".....If it was a white driver then you would hear about the "hate crime" but making it sound like terror and fear is CNN's specialty. In an hour or 2 the terror color will elevate and Cheney will be needing more money for Haliburton to fight terror.

who cares if race was used, it's how you I.D. a perp. It needs to happen more, and everywhere.

Maybe it’s just a truck driver that that’s ticked off about gas prices and wanted to stick it to the man.

Nobody knows who or why this truck was stolen. Yes, it is important to find the truck. No, we shouldn't jump to conclusions and blow every crime out of proportion.

Terrorists usually have the funds to be a little more discrete with their plots.

GPS tracking is used by a lot of trucking companies but now the unions are fighting them. They don't want the companies to know where the jackboot thugs go nor who stole (normally the union themselves) the loads.

If there was a crime commited and the witness of that crime describes a specific person by race, height, weight, or any other identifying feature, it isn't racism. It is simply the factual account of an event.

Get over yourselves...

I didn't see the story before the suspect info was removed, so I have no idea what it said.

However...

Stating a male stole a truck, tells me nothing. Stating a mid-20's, black male, who was between 5-10 and 6-0 feet tall, with a thin build tells me who not to bne looking at.
