“It defies common sense that anyone, even a terrorist, can walk into a store in America and buy explosive powders without a background check “

It defies common sense hat liberals wont enforce our borders and allow terrorists to even be in our country.

Flour is an explosive powder. As is saw dust and coal dust.

[Yo-Yo]

Reports are that the bombers bought fireworks and harvested the black powder from them. Are we going to put taggants in bottle rockets now? Background check and 7 day waiting period for sparklers?

[deoetdoctrinae]

As far as the left is concerned, Americans cannot
be trusted with these high capacity lead delivery systems.

checks to be run on anyone buying explosive powder

There it is.

A blogger (Reditt) posted a message the day of the bombing (Monday) that said the event was staged. Said - in advance - the perp would be an older teen or 20 year old. The raid to catch him would be held on Friday. The goal was to tax and regulate gun powder (no powder for ammo = no guns).
I'll try to find the original FR thread with a copy.

Isn’t it more sane to follow El Al method?

[Well, I really don’t care being labeled racist, or worse. Not any more.]

Hey, I heard that a cheap case of 100 shotgun shells at Wal-mart has a lot of explosive powder in it...

[markomalley]

So I’m going to have to have an ATF permit to buy coffee mate?

Backdoor gun control.

These fatherless maggots never stop pushing.

[Venturer]

Pretty soon we will have to pass a background check to buy gasoline.

[dmcnash]

Harry, Let us address the fact that the Russians alerted our FBI and CIA to the motivations of the lead bomber first before we start limiting the freedoms of normal citizens. Your precious government failed to protect us due to a hypersensitivity to political correctness and people were maimed and killed as a result. Deal with the root of the problem before we engage in displacement behavior.

[tcrlaf]

These morons DID NOT USE reloaders gunpowder, they used FIRERWORKS.

Just another Democrat assault on legal gun owners. And if you oppose it. YOU MUSS BE A RASSISS!, or a homophobe, or sumpin’. Just ask anybody in the mainstream media about this.

[taxcontrol]

Wow, gonna have to have a background check to buy:

Sugar
Flour
Aluminum Oxide (common grit for sand paper)
flares
etc

[Lazamataz]

HEY NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION, HOW’S THAT ‘B’ RATING YOU GAVE REID WORKING OUT FOR YA?

[Lazamataz]

Reid introduced the bill, S. 792, for Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.), who has been out sick for much of the year. But in a press statement, Lautenberg said the Boston bombing shows that background checks are needed for explosive materials.

The day Lautenberg dies, I will celebrate.

[barefoot_hiker]

Utter nonsense. Either of the Boston bombers would have passed a background check and if not, they would find some who did and get them to buy whatever they needed. Just like none of the gun control laws proposed and/or being passed (at the state level) would have done anything to prevent the recent mass shootings.

The statists want background checks so they can monitor and record law-abiding citizens. Simple as that. Anything else as a stated purposed is a lie to fool the low-info sheeples.

[Wurlitzer]

First ban what is the most dangerous to the citizens. Ban Islam!

It is not a religion but a death cult designed to destroy civilization and have us all live like the camel impregnating scum in the middle east.

Mo-Ham-Mud was lower than the crud on the soles of our shoes and is the product of a tramp mother bedding down with a pig.

This reminds me of a tramp mother bedding down with a Kenyan communist and raising the spawn of that devil coupling with as many communists as she could sleep with.

[tomkat]

Here's an idea Reid, you pathetic nazi @hole .. how about you congressional jerkoffs decide which side gets which color and we just get to it.

[redgolum]

They must have had this bill ready before hand.
