I never did see much followup on the pizza delivery guy who claimed a kidnapper affixed a bomb around his neck (locked) and forced him to rob a bank (he was held by police in a parking lot until the bomb detonated killing the man). That’s a few years back, I think it was Baltimore but I could be wrong on that.

And then there was the guy who had a backpack with explosives who “killed himself” outside a packed college football stadium.

Who took his head?

They also refused to say whether the man was decapitated — despite reports from eye witnesses who saw his body.

He may not have been decapitated, in the strict sense.

Sounds like Chicago has a case of the mexican mafia gang problem there. That’s exactly the tactics used by the ruthless gang lords to execute folk in Juarez mex. AND I hear Chicago has a HUGH illegal mexican community there...HUGH!

I think it turned into pink mist.

Dear G-d! I can’t imagine seeing anything like that!

Here it is; google pizza delivery bomb collar to find more. It happened in Erie, PA.

He said his dog Buddah led him to the body of a shirtless man whose head was missing and whose legs were folded behind him. A shopping bag and a black plastic jug lay nearby, and there was a strong odor of what he thought was gunpowder.

“I thought my dog was chasing a rabbit, but when I got close it was a body without a head,” he said. “There was a weird smell in the air. I wasn’t expecting what I saw.”

The body was near tennis courts, between a fence and a pine tree, he said.

He also said neighbors told him they had heard a loud explosion about 4 a.m., something confirmed by area residents. He said police told him they had come out earlier to investigate the sound of the explosion but were unable to find anything at that time.

About two blocks from the school, Evanston police cordoned off an apartment, which police sources said was where the victim lived. He still has not been identified. The Cook County medical examiner’s office said he blew himself up, although whether intentionally or by accident was not immediately clear.

“google pizza delivery bomb collar to find more. It happened in Erie, PA.”

I remember that. Death by cop stupidity.

“And then there was the guy who had a backpack with explosives who “killed himself” outside a packed college football stadium.”

In Oklahoma. He was a muslim convert and bad bomb maker.

He was a muslim convert and bad bomb maker.

Yeah, but other than that he was a credit to his dorm. Or at least to his floor.

Chicago is a sanctuary city. And from what I have read, illegal Mexicans are coming to Chicago from Arizona to get free government goodies.

Yeah, my first thought was that this was a Mexican drug gang murder.

It probably wasn’t a suicide. If it was a suicide, why did the lately decapitated have at least TWO pipe bombs?

Anybody know the whereabouts of Tony Rezko?

I think he had an apartment with a Pakistani friend who didn’t notice he was making TATP in his kitchen, or that TATP was all over the kitchen.

But, anyway, the FBI told us he wasn’t a terrorist and not to be alarmed.
