If I were a terrorist, Detroit would be my destination of choice. If I wanted to smuggle something onboard a plane, I’d go to Detroit Metro Airport, and I’d find the security guard with the longest fingernails and get in her line. It’s also, apparently, a good place to get your hands on some explosives.

Maybe some of Glenn Beck’s vetter Syrian-Armenian Christians want revenge on the Turkish diplomats.

Shipping but 1,000 lbs. of anything by rail sounds unlikely. Who would do that?

Joke.

Michigan State Police announced the discovery of an arms cache of 200 semi-automatic rifles,

with 250,000 rounds of ammunition, 10 anti-tank missiles, 4 grenade launchers,

2 tons of heroin,

$12 million in forged bills and a ring of 14 prostitutes,

all in a housing project behind the Detroit Public Library.

Detroit folks were stunned.

A community organizer said: ‘We’re shocked !

The 32 case commercial grade aerial shells are categorized as not for public use.

Maybe someone stole them for private use.

Why would anyone ship fireworks to Detroit ? Fireworks are used for celebration.

The only thing I can think of is that they finally burned down the last house.

Or they made their budget goal of $45.

Great, now we’ll have red, white, and blue IEDs made from American parts! Thank you, Hussein Obama.

We’ll know what kind of people who stole it in a few days. If it was just goofs, they’ll be so excited that they’ll set at least one off this weekend (Here, hold muh beer an’ watch this.) after a twelve pack, and someone will notice.

If it was someone with evil intent, we will hear nothing until we hear something very bad.

I don’t get it.
It was suspected that the theft happened in Ohio, yet some of the fireworks were recovered in southwest Detroit near the CSX Depot ?

The stolen fireworks made it to detroit before the train that carried them ?
