Two men indicted last week on federal weapons charges allegedly had plans to bomb the Gateway Arch — and to kill St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Robert McCulloch and Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson — the Post-Dispatch has learned.
Sources close to the investigation were uncertain whether the men had the capability to carry out the plans, although the two allegedly did buy what they thought was a pipe bomb in an undercover law enforcement sting.
The men wanted to acquire two more bombs, the sources said, but could not afford to do it until one suspect’s girlfriend’s Electronic Benefit Transfer card was replenished.
An indictment, with no mention of bombs or killings, was returned in federal court here Nov. 19 and unsealed Friday upon the arrest of Brandon Orlando Baldwin and Olajuwon Ali Davis. Their addresses and Baldwin’s age were not available; Davis is 22.

I'll take "What is satire?" for $100.
Darn. Missed it again.
“The men wanted to acquire two more bombs, the sources said, but could not afford to do it until one suspect’s girlfriend’s Electronic Benefit Transfer card was replenished.”
Tells me all I need to know. Even so I bet dollars to doughnuts that they will suddenly be able to afford a slick high profile lawyer.
They wouldn’t have managed the basic chemistry anyway.
Wow, are those guys stupid. Thank God for small wonders!
The one suspect is aka Brandon Mohammed.
Well, then we’d have two fewer pieces of s—t keeping Brown company in Hell
Obama would like nothing better than a full fledged ‘race riot’ so he could declare nationwide martial law.
Have they been released and pardoned yet?
The Black Panthers are going to have that millstone around their necks for years. I’m going to (insert threat) but I have to wait until my girlfriend’s EBT card is recharged.
“plotting to bomb the St. Louis Arch”
“the two allegedly did buy what they thought was a pipe bomb in an undercover law enforcement sting.”
Complete morons swept up in an FBI sting: they gonna take down the arch with some plumbing parts they thought were a pipe bomb. Would make a GREAT comedy skit:
Suspect 1: Are you SUUUUURE this is a bomb?
Undercover FBI Agent: Yeah, man!
Suspect 2: Uh, it don’t look big enough to me.
Undercover FBI Agent: It’s one of them SPECIAL miniaturized Japanese pipe bombs, and it’s filled with extra-high super-dooper primo explosive!
Suspect 2: Oh.
Suspect 1: Where do you light it?
Undercover FBI Agent: Right here; look REEEEEAL closely ... HANDS UP MOFOS, YA’LL ARE UNDER ARREST!
FBI to thugs: “HANDS UP, DON’T POOP.”
Oh, wait...the perps are black racists? Never mind.
