"PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- A defense attorney and friends suspect that a teenager accused of plotting mass killings in Portland was set up - groomed and talked into a plot to detonate what he thought were six 55-gallon drums of explosives in a van.
But prosecutors led by Attorney General Eric Holder say Mohamed Osman Mohamud plunged into a what turned out to be government sting, dismissing talk of backing out and also exhulting in the mayhem he expected as Portlanders gathered by the thousands last week for a Christmas tree-lighting celebration."

Either of these paragraphs can be close to the truth. However, we live in such a knee-jerking ideological-driven culture that most of the noise comes from those who already "know the truth" and have made up their minds. The Left knee-jerks its case as much as the Right. There is very little rational political discourse left in the country.
