Terror Down The Tracks?

Maybe. Maybe not. But in the parlance of the intelligence world, let’s connect some dots: Charlotte lands the DNC in February; two months later, surveillance cameras catch a man in a restricted area along the Lynx Blue light-rail line, which runs into the heart of uptown and what will be DNC 2012 command central.

From the Big Brother run amok files, a heartwarming tale of kids, lemonade stands for charity, and rude awakenings: Thank goodness we have the government to protect us from rogue lemonade stands and budding entrepreneurs.
