The Unabomber published his manifesto (IIRC, it was in the New York Slimes; and it was strongly left-wing and depopulate-the-earth Al Gore wackmobile stuff)...and his brother recognized the writing and told the Feds.

Just got home and before even reading the thread am going to post this. Maybe someone already said it but I'm driving home, I hear about the latest bomb and two words flash in front of my forehead: Antifa diversion. It's getting really hot in the kitchen for the Treasoners and it's starting, just starting to get 'out there', even in local news reports around the nation. Perfect timing. The school shooting was nipped in the bud and just destroyed 'the narrative' with the whole gun control thing, and now this. We'll see who this guy or group is but I'm betting Antifa. Austin is the hotbed of liberalism in Texas.

Look at all the youtube videos about Antifa: Antifa Agitation, Austin, Texas

I hope I'm wrong on this but my gut tells me they just can't wait to Start La Revolucion.

Pray for America and prepare.

Goodwill’s whole purpose is to hire people with handicaps. I ran a group home at one point where most of our people went to work in one of their sheltered workshops - that is, a place for people who couldn’t even deal with public contact. But we had one resident who was more able and he worked with the public. A nice guy and a good employee, but just somebody who wasn’t quite up to coping with decisions on his own.

Our local Publix hires a lot of folks like this as baggers, and they’re wonderful and helpful.

I don’t know about a whole conspiracy on a national basis, but my prime suspect is Anti-fa fools. Moslems love to show off, and generally take credit or go out with a bang themselves. There is too much hiding here for it to be Moslem. So I suspect leftists.

But, I could be wrong in any sense. Could be right-wing, could be your average sinister monster, or could be typical Moslem.

Goodwill workers are just fine....I donate a lot of stuff to them and some of it is "unusual"...

at the local store, they load the stuff into their backroom and wheel stuff out in a shopping cart...

Kaczynski was alleged to be a victim of MKUltra; psychologically humiliating, demoralizing, breaking him down and destroying him:

As a sophomore, Kaczynski participated in a study described by author Alton Chase as a "purposely brutalizing psychological experiment", led by Harvard psychologist Henry Murray. Subjects were told they would be debating personal philosophy with a fellow student, and were asked to write essays detailing their personal beliefs and aspirations. The essays were turned over to an anonymous attorney, who in a later session would confront and belittle the subject – making "vehement, sweeping, and personally abusive" attacks – using the content of the essays as ammunition, while electrodes monitored the subject's physiological reactions. These encounters were filmed, and subjects' expressions of rage were later played back to them repeatedly. The experiment ultimately lasted three years, with someone verbally abusing and humiliating Kaczynski each week. In total, Kaczynski spent 200 hours as part of the study.

Kaczynski's lawyers later attributed his hostility towards mind control techniques to this experience. Some sources have suggested that Murray's experiments were part of the US government's research into mind control, known as Project MKUltra. Chase and others have also suggested that this experience may have motivated Kaczynski's criminal activities, while philosopher Jonathan D. Moreno has said that, while "Kaczynski's anti-technological fixation and his critique itself had some roots in the Harvard curriculum," Kaczynski's later bombing campaign can "by no means be laid at Harvard's door".

I just listened in on the news conference and interview with the Texas AG. His sources tell him it is likely connected, or, can’t be ruled out yet. The Austin PD guy is absolutely certain it’s NOT connected.

Go figure.

From the news conference this “bombing” was not related to the others. Someone dropped off some old military devices and one exploded.

Yeah, the Austin PD guy didn’t fill me with confidence either.

Apparently, the device was an “artillery simulator”. Not sure what that means, but it was in a box and after being passed from one employee who didn’t think Goodwill would want it, to another employee to dispose of, it then blew up, or exploded or simulated:)
