Craziness in Maryland:

A gunman with an explosive device strapped to himself has entered the Discovery Communications building in Silver Spring, Md., and may have taken at least one person hostage, police said.

Montgomery County police said there may also be other explosives in the building, but they said they could not confirm reports that one or more shots had been fired.

Law enforcement authorities identified the man as James J. Lee. They told NBC News that he had a long history of protesting at the building. NBC said the man may have posted environmental and population-control demands online.

The suspect has a laundry list of demands posted on his website. Things from stopping global warming to ending illegal immigration and “anchor babies”.

While this guy appears to be an all around lunatic, that isn’t stopping the wingnuts from labeling him. Here’s Gateway Pundit:

Yeah except the guy also holds some extreme rightwing views as well. But nothing takes the cake like ultra-radical Ace of Spades commenting on Lee being Asian:

I am speechless with this statement of absolute idiocy. I guess we should start calling Hitler an American, since America is a white country and Hitler was white.
