This sounds like it may be a private plane rather than a commercial aircraft.

Bush’s fault - Barack Obama
Chickens coming home to roost - Rev. Wright
Probably a teabagger - Mayor Bloomberg
Rush’s fault - Chris Matthews

Aerosol can?
No injuries so it had to be a very small explosion if they were trying to get to it and were that close.

If it was a commuter plan it could have been checked. Some of those make you check your luggage and then pick it up on the tarmac. its been a long time, so that might have stopped, but it used to be the case.

It wasnt a commuter plane, local news is reporting it came off a KLM 747 out of Amsterdam. Ground crew threw the bag out of the cargo hold and it exploded when it hit the ground.

They send Mennonites to do the “technical” stuff. Probably stashed the stuff on the guys unknowingly.

God’s hand must still be upon us...Christmas Day, NYC, and now this. It didn’t explode until it was being unloaded.

I praise the LORD, but we have to be proactive instead of reactive to these sorts of things.
