#1  The authorities didn't disclose the botulinum toxin, anthrax powder, and the Koran he had, for security reasons.

#2 A .223 made to fire .50 ammo?
he knows little of metallurgy, if it didn't blow up on the first round, it'd break bones for sure.

I have this mental image.
Puts modified rifle to shoulder fires and entire arm and shoulder flaps brokenly like a chicken wing.
OR,
Raises modiied rifle to his shoulder and BOOM there's a red mist where his forearm and chest used to be.

There's a hell of a lot of charge (Powder) behind a .50, you cannot compare it even to the old Sharps .50 Buffalo rifle, Much, Much, more power.

The article at the link has a photo of a black man in a wife-beater undershirt, tipover. I s'pose the police made off with his green, military style jacket and military style ballistic vest with reinforced steel plate. He is supposed to be a Navy veteran.

#9 Branchburg Patorlman Steven Cronce noticed a large bulge beneath the green, military-style jacket that Woodson was wearing

Must have been those 50 cal ammo cans.

#13 My my. The muslim murder mob is just coming out of the woodwork since the media picked Obama to be President. I think the number of actual and attempted attacks already exceed all during the post Sept. 11, 2001 Bush presidency.

Really? Is this: Investigators also found Middle Eastern red and white traditional headdress (i.e. the Wahabi hat) the common headgear for the wife-beater crowd. Further investigations please Mr G-man.

#15 Interesting gear check there , Mr Woodson..

Sounds like an unhinged loony drifting for public attention , riding on the back of all this dubious activity as of late .

Am hoping Fridays big meeting in London isnt going to attract a large amount of nutters .. ooh wait, theres 'anti-war march' at the same time as Blair takes on the Iraq Inquiry

Something not good is going to happen , prime time :(

#16 There are a couple of .50 conversions for AR platforms, though they are not cheap.

#17 So - the local cops "confronted" him at 0355LT. By 0817LT the FBI issues a statement that this is definately not terrorism. Nice of them to wait ALMOST five hours before coming to that conclusion. He probably isn't even completely processed yet!

Re the 50 cal assault rifle; there are a several after-market platforms that shoot 50 (kinda) in an assault rifle configuration. Not preferred by operators, but probably very attractive to wannabes.

#18 The latest update @ 3:00pm, (nj.com), the original newsperson reports his bail is set at $75K.

While detectives also found a map of a U.S. military base and a civilian community, the FBI has determined there does not appear to be any link between Woodson and terrorism, said FBI Special Agent Bryan Travers.

“Woodson does not appear to have a link to any known terrorist groups, nor a specific terrorist plot,” Travers said. “However, the matter is still under investigation and these should only be considered preliminary findings.”
