Wow. Sounds like a personal feud gone hot. He’ll have lots of time to think about it in prison.

We will hear about this white non-muslim man constantly in order to equate him with the many terror attacks by muslims we have every year (most of which are covered up or not labelled as such).

Cary Lee Ogborn

The article lists his middle name - Lee. He’s guilty. Anytime its a white guy with a middle name like Lee, he’s guilty.

“Person will not be there when set off. Dont want to kill, just send message.”

His target is a specific person’s abode, not the person—doesn’t come close to jihadist terrorism.

Well the Post can make all the hay they want but it’s not political or religious terrorism. In fact, sounds like the guy had a vendetta against someone. Wanted to send him a message. No different then the guy taking his gun by stealth and shooting up the building. This would have been more dramatic though.

Undoubtedly the reason that the WaPo felt it important to print a story like this at just this time.

“His target is a specific person’s abode, not the person—doesn’t come close to jihadist terrorism.”

I don’t think the prosecutor takes that into consideration and juries do not like people who want the bomb other people’s houses. There could be people home.
