I’m surprised this isn’t a bigger story:
Austin bombs since 3/2
1-3: left on doorsteps, minority victims
4: booby trapped on road near affluent neighborhood, white victims
5: exploded in Schertz FedEx center, sent from/to Austin
6: unexploded in Austin FedEx center
7: exploded in Goodwill
Scary stuff. Glad my sister and her twins don’t still live there. She wouldn’t be handling that too well.
Yeah....I'm not sure how this isn't 24/7 coverage on all the cable networks. I guess the two deaths, and ongoing threats, aren't emotional enough for the sensationalist coverage.
And it's completely nuts that the targets appear to be unrelated (even though the first 2-3 may have been connected)...and no manifesto, demands or anything. This is the purest example of terrorism.
I'm also amazed, when I assume cameras are everywhere, that they don't have a lead on the guy?
Unibomber wanna be

He supposedly blew himself up this morning in his car.
They are saying the Goodwill one was mishandled military ordinance and had nothing to do with the bomber.
Of course I start this thread the night before he kills himself.

Could you start a thread about my ex-girlfriend?
Before liberals get their panties in a bunch, yes this dude was a terrorist. Luckily he was just a psycho and wasn't actually smart like the unabomber.

Lol, yeah, it's two clicks to rep. Much easier than posting "reps."

I can’t believe how long it took for this to get news attention outside the area. I mean yeah, our President is a serial cheater with a porn star and model. But domestic bombings SHOULD be superseding that...

It would have been the only story had he been a sniper instead.

Hell, if he had harvested facebook data of soccer moms playing farmville it would have been talked about for 2 weeks.

Lots of people have the knowledge to disappear and live a primitive lifestyle like Kaczynski. Being as smart as him, not likely.

Well, the bombs did not have a bump stock, so ....

I thought it was the White House spokesperson who said he wasn't a terrorist?
Sanders tweeted "no nexus to terrorism", assuming she meant no evidence of a connection to an established group. I see nothing wrong with that, but of course some will choose to be outraged as they see fit.

I see; that makes sense.

No reps
But agree
Glad this is over [hopefully].
Wonder what the motivation is going to be.
