Alot of mis-information:

that article says ‘bomb’ singular.

This article says “bombs” plural and the car was parked:

This one also says ‘Bombs’ but that the car was stopped (I assume as in pulled over by Police):

Same stuff the Columbine pair had, but they didn't drive a Mercedes.

????

I was thinking about the Mercedes that was loaded but didn’t go off..in Scotland.

My kid? Maybe someday I’ll have a Mercedes...but it will be long after my ‘kid’ is off my payroll.

Gee...you can find those same things in every truck on opening day of deer season down here in Mississippi.

Well, maybe the rifles and propane, but do they use pipe bombs on the deer in Mississippi?

Two possibilities:

1) Police and media over-reaction

—or—

2) Real threat

OK, LOL at the “Wayne” reference. A sure sign of a mass-murderer.

Those are not “pipe bombs”, those are dehydrated sausages. The reason they triggered a response from the bomb detectors is they were made down Louisiana way by Thebedeau & Beudereau and are hot sausages.

The driver was no doubt a Presbyterian sympathizer who had recently trained at a camp in Maryland.

Why is lately, that every time I read these type things, it implies that the car did it, all by itself?

Besides that, I am glad that the suspect, not the car, is in custody.

More info here http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/crime/news_wtnh_new_haven_pipe_bomb_rifles_propane_found_in_car_200910070546

The area where it was found is heavily hispanic. My bet - gang related more than terrorism.

(Though I personally believe that gangs and terrorist share many traits)
