We now have a bit more news about that NSA gate shooting the other day.\u00a0 And it’s gotten a bit strange, to put it mildly.<\/p>\n
The FBI has now identified the dead guy as “Ricky Shawatza Hall”.\u00a0 He was the driver of the stolen car.\u00a0 The passenger, who remains hospitalized, has not yet been publicly identified.<\/p>\n
What’s a bit odd is the “rest of the story” that was released today.<\/p>\n
The accounts you heard about the two guys being “cross-dressed”?\u00a0 Yeah, they were correct.<\/p>\n
Seems Hall and his “buddy” had been picked up in Baltimore earlier that day – or maybe the previous night – by a Baltimore resident. They then drove to a motel in nearby Elkridge to “party”, checking in at 7:30AM.<\/p>\n
The two cross-dressers then apparently stole the guy’s car and left the area.\u00a0 Unfortunately for them, they managed to screw up and ended up at the gate of the NSA compound at Fort Meade.<\/p>\n
My guess is that the two crooks took a wrong turn after stealing the guy’s car, then freaked when they saw the police.\u00a0 They then chose to ignore police instructions – picking precisely the wrong<\/em> place to do that (NSA police do not play games).\u00a0 They then compounded the error by try to run for it and ended up getting shot.<\/p>\n At this point,\u00a0 it doesn’t look like terrorism had anything to do with the incident.\u00a0 That it happened is unfortunate, but as the saying goes:\u00a0 “Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.”<\/p>\n Fox News has a few more details.
