Damn. Tea Party Members Caught Scouting Out Possible Domestic Terror Site

FBI Investigating

Let's not jump to conclusions here. This could have just been a group of friends, all out walking by the picturesque waterside.

After midnight. While trespassing.

The seven individuals currently live in Amherst, Cambridge, Sunderland, Northampton and New York City.

From miles away...ok, this looks bad.

But do try to keep an open mind.

Just try.

State Police say the five men and two women are from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Singapore, and “cited their education and career interests” for being in the area. The men told police they were chemical engineers and recent college graduates.

Oh.
Never mind.
Yes, jihadi terror cells are here, and they are keen to find more places and ways to kill us. I believe that is the unstated subtext of that article, because if the folks were ordinary local MIT types out goofing around, we wouldn't be reading a list of their national origins.

Kudos to the police for their vigilance, and to the FBI, good hunting.
