It was ruled intentional.

They had an EMT guy fingered, but they let him off.

Kinda like that poor sob at the Olympic Park bombing in GA. Turns out it was the Rudolph guy.

No, she was a nurse concerned that the bombings could trigger someone’s PTSD. Lots of veterans in the area.

Hard to believe one person has time to distribute multiple bombs to multiple sites and then post a thread on Reddit with multiple replies.

An incendiary device tells me the perp ran out of explosives and turned to another method. If the gun grabbing madness goes forth it will ignore the fact that without guns, the criminals will use other methods, which will point to the source of all murder: The creativity of the human mind to do evil. America’s Founders knew this and wanted a guarantee that its citizens have a way to defend themselves. However, with the 2nd Amendment protections, the evil creativity marches on. I hope someone never creates a button that will exterminate all of life on this planet. No gun will protect us from bombs.

Enter technology: Satellite surveillance should track from where the bombs went off and the route back to their origin. It is time to move a KH-11 (which has imaging capabilities superior to the Hubble Space Telescope) over Texas.

"It's not race-related like the media has speculated," one message read. "I also enjoy laughing at the massive police presence that just simply cannot find or deanonymize me."

People keep talking about 'false flags'.

I find this comment interesting.

I recently read an article about the practices and policies of Reddit.

It's almost as if these bombings could be used as a pretext to 'deanonymize' the internet.

Will this lead to a demand for a crackdown on anonymous posting?

What’s the odds it will be someone already known to the FBI?

Most Goodwill employees are barely employable, if you know what I mean.

So sorry to hear this, about your dear hubby.

There was a FReeper who recently fell off a ladder (not very high...maybe three feet from ground, IIRC?). Last I read he was hoping they would save his foot.

Prayers up for your hubby, for you, for all involved in his surgery/recovery.

My house value has gone up 26% since 2009 and that’s based on outside dimensions. I could easily get another 15% for it due to my interior improvements. And I think it’s outrageous. Some people are going to be hit hard one of these days. Prices will fall.

On April 17, 2013, an ammonium nitrate explosion occurred at the West Fertilizer Company storage and distribution facility in West, Texas, eighteen miles (29 km) north of Waco, while emergency services personnel were responding to a fire at the facility.[7] Fifteen people were killed, more than 160 were injured, and more than 150 buildings were damaged or destroyed. Investigators have confirmed that ammonium nitrate was the material that exploded.[8] On May 11, 2016, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives stated that the fire had been deliberately set.[1]
