So let me get this right. Pressure cookers are weapons of mass destruction, therefore, we invaded Iraq over pressure cookers?
I don't know, but it's starting to sound like some one is making this up and they go along.

Yes. And thank God for this- its about time.
I know for certain that our neighbors to the North (Canada)while pretending to be nice, civil , peaceful people- Really have WMDs all over the place. A virtual Axis of Evil those canadians are.
I have been promoting a War with the canadians for 27 years now- This could finally be the spark which will allow us to Liberate the canadians and give them freedom.
-Its for the children.

If we do not stop this now that sound of juicy Roast beef could be a Mushroom Cloud.

Doesn't every 7/11 have security cameras ? . . .
Then shouldn't that be the easiest to charge
him with ? or don't they have any proof ?

Yes.
The definition of WMD is so wide nowdays that the average person in the street wouldnt recognise it.
Any bomb, any fully automatic gun. Sawn off shotgun. Even just posession of a silencer.
any destructive device defined as any explosive, incendiary, or poison gas bomb, grenade, rocket having a propellant charge of more than four ounces, missile having an explosive or incendiary charge of more than one-quarter ounce, mine, or device similar to any of the devices described in the preceding clauses
any explosive or incendiary device, as defined in Title 18 USC, Section 921: bomb, grenade, rocket, missile, mine, or other device with a charge of more than one quarter ounce
