The "Parts and Parcels" mayor of London is in Austin Texas today....
coincidence... maybe...
“Both he and the victims of the Monday explosion were African-American, the AP reports, adding that police are seeking surveillance video from nearby homes in order to identify a suspect.”
“If you receive a package that you are not expecting or looks suspicious, DO NOT open it, call 911 immediately. RT- Help us spread this message.”
Yet another explosion in Austin has left an elderly woman with life threatening injuries:

Since three bombs, two today, have gone off in Austin could we maybe move this to front or breaking?
Thanks, I’ve asked the moderators to move this to front page or breaking.
I use Amazon a lot and have never seen a private vehicle deliver anything.
The private deliveries are a new thing with Amazon, and they seem to require only a clean drivers license and an insured vehicle. They deliver this way all over the place in Jacksonville now.
Makes sense I guess. Amazon has a lot of packages to deliver.
I have a co-worker who got an Amazon delivery from a private vehicle. There was some kind of marking added to the vehicle.
He first thought that the driver sitting in his driveway was lost and checking location but it turns out his son had ordered something.
Austins MLK, Jr St. neighborhoods are gentrifying. The near east side was traditionally small, minority-owned homes. Hipsters are now moving into the condos that are springing up in that area. Community activists dont like it, no.
So far, both targets named are black.
It is as likely the left creating the bombings to try to prove the KKK types are resurgent (as proven by all the fake hate crimes by blacks, Muslims, etc) as such groups actually doing something like this.
How queer, Bernie Sanders also came to Austin for his first SXSW appearance. Has a lot more look of being a Commie globalist conference than a supposed music-film-gaming-tech conference.

I did not know that...if true.
I know they are scanned...but by ZIPS..and USPS labels.
Thanks.

Postal Service Confirms Photographing All U.S. Mail
By RON NIXONAUG. 2, 2013
The Postal Service on Friday confirmed that it takes a photograph of every letter and package mailed in the United States about 160 billion pieces last year and occasionally provides the photos to law enforcement agencies that request them as part of criminal cases.
The images are taken at more than 200 processing plants around the country and are used primarily to help the agency sort mail, the postmaster general, Patrick R. Donahoe, said in an interview with The Associated Press.
But Mr. Donahoe said that the images had been used a couple of times by law enforcement to trace letters in criminal cases, including one involving ricin-laced letters sent to President Obama and Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg of New York. The images of letters and packages are generally stored for a week to 30 days and then destroyed, he told the A.P...
These packaged were not mailed. Attempts are being made to check for any security cameras that might show someone dropping off the trapped packages.
Never knew that....
