Are they still mining Bitcoins fast?

Yes and no. Yes, they should be making a ton of btc, but no not enough for a 51% attack.

it's not an attack, read deathandtaxes post

He called it an attack!

I am not sure what post you are reading??  The above posts does not say its an attack.  In fact it is just a large pool.

Is it true that going forwards the 51% attack won't exactly go away? You would think it would get harder but surely not if the number of miners stays static? It would just require someone to have a large percentage of currently powerful hardware. Is this understanding right?

Not a 51% attack, just someone with a lot of mining power. Although it is a bit scary that someone can have that amount of power. Just goes to show, with enough money, not even Bitcoin is 100% safe.

actually, with the current size of the network, it requires far greater than 51% to attack. you realize, this means to successfully attack it would take like 500 th+

Maybe it's the NSA (for
special needs)

 Virginia is mush less populous state that the state of Maryland (72/Km2 -- 180/Km2) , is tree times larger than the Maryland.  It's likely that's their agents responsible for operations are based in virginia.
