@Nurse 3:   I say stunt. I don't think it was political or terrorism. Or else we surrendered & no one let us in on it!  Although it did seem well planned out & executed................ 4951

It did didn't it.  The article stated that there was a group of people on the bridge and then the lights went out.  Must have been quite a group to get it done without anyone noticing since there were police on either end of the bridge. 4951

I think it was terrorist.....stealth terrorist trying to make a point. I don't lump all muslims into a terrorist group. But, perhaps some of the communities that have a large presence in this country could very well not be an America loving person. Does this make sense? I know what I'm trying to convey but it's not coming out right. I'm not profiling. Scary to me all the same. Makes me scratch my head and lift my eyebrow. I hope they find out who the offenders are and throw the book at them for the handling of OUR AMERICAN FLAG!!!! 4951

Update: even though after you read it - it doesn't seem like the police (all 36 detectives)know any more than they did!
 
NYPD has identified suspects in the Brooklyn Bridge white flag investigation, report says
By Alex Napoliello | NJ.com The Star-Ledger Email the author | Follow on Twitter on July 24, 2014 at 10:17 AM
The New York Police Department has identified several suspects who possibly replaced two American flags flying atop the Brooklyn Bridge with white flags, according to a report from the New York Post.
The newspaper, citing anonymous police sources, says the NYPD know the suspects' nicknames and are working to get their real names so they can bring them in for questioning.
Tuesday morning, Twitter and other social media outlets were flooded with photos of two white flags flying atop opposite ends of the Brooklyn Bridge. Images captured from media helicopters show what appeared to be American flags painted over white, the international sign for surrender.
The NYPD has assigned "nearly three dozen" detectives to the case, according to The Post. Investigators are watching surveillance cameras located on both sides of the span and from nearby subway stations and Pace University, the report said.
"We have no good images of these guys on cameras," a police source told the newspaper. " ... None of the footage captures the perpetrators of this crime."

now they are saying the American flag was bleached out to appear all white since a bottle of bleach was found near by . They still do not know why this was done or what the purpose was .Just some nut doing a dumb thing if you ask me.... 4951
