That’s certainly interesting, what are the possible uses the TSA could have for that product and that quantity? I could see small quantities as useful for training search dogs, calibrating electronic sensors designed to detect such things, or perhaps for EOD work.
Unless I’m mistaken, I don’t work in the industry and don’t handle things likely to turn me into pink mist, but I’m under the impression that most construction work done in modern America doesn’t use the old style dynamite products, and only really uses them as boosters to get cheaper and more stable earth-moving and rock shattering explosives to reliably detonate. If I saw a private construction company purchasing that I’d read it as likely 2,000 booster charges for a hell of a lot more than 1,300 pounds of actual explosives.
These entities are all part of the same federal monster. The TSA has room in its budget for more weapon buying. It will share all tools with its (federal) self when needed.
That makes me question the low tech version even more. I suppose you cannot hack or EMP det cord and dynamite setups. Sounds like demolition old style.

Mr. GG2 who is in mining just told me this almost word for word a couple of minutes ago. He said its enough for 2,000 boost charges. What in the holy heckoly would DHS need this for? I am struggling to even think of something.
We got a winner. They’re preparing to destroy us with explosives purchased with our money. Bunker ID needed.
