Port Authority bomb was made of Christmas lights, sugar and a battery: cops

The Port Authority bomber fashioned his crude explosive device out of a 5-inch piece of pipe, a 9-volt battery, sugar, match heads, Christmas tree lights and screws

...and blow it all up!

I spent 35 years in the wholesale hardware distribution business. I’ve never been in a hardware store that sold condoms or Playboy magazines.

But some do still sell dynamite. Many sell ammonium sulfate fertilizer.

Hey when you see a ME or Paki type young male dressed in Christmas tree lights...

Isn't that cultural appropriation? The snowflakes are gonna be upset.

"...nice step-by-step guide on how to build a pipe bomb..."

Mainstream media seriously wants our fellow citizens grievously injured or dead.
Likely 99% of the adult population has no idea how to build such a device.
These nitwits at the NY Post practically publish the exact recipe along with common beginner mistakes and a FAQ section. Unreal.

“the pipe wasn’t packed tightly enough to explode, so when the festive lights sparked the matches, it just blew the ends off the pipe rather than sending shrapnel flying, sources said.”...

So now our “protectors” are teaching “Bomb Making 101” here on FR. Dumb asses need not advertise how to help the suicide bomb makers with ANYTHING. Kill them and quickly.

Sugar makes a great rocket fuel. You do need an oxidizer and have to blend it then cast it correctly with the right grain structure. This was common knowledge in the 60s when guys outgrew Estes engines and wanted to go a mile high. But that was for the big boys living in the desert in Nevada; no room for that living in NYS,

Hot Caramel crotch, I hope.

[Mr. Blond]

Great job NYP, explaining how to make the next bomb more reliable.

Exactly. It is further compounded as there *are* a substantial number of Muslims who desire this information, yet are afraid to search for it.
These frickin’ newspapers then practically publish a list of ingredients and provide fairly detailed descriptions so some other Muslim loser can “avenge” the failed Bangladesh guy.

He used sugar? Wow. That REALLY ought to piss the health Nazis (liberals) off! Imagine using sugar. Do you know what that does for high blood pressure? ( Do I need the sarcasm tag?)

[Tijeras_Slim]

I am so stealing that one.

[SpaceBar]

the pipe wasn’t packed tightly enough to explode...

Pretty thoughtful of the NY Post to provide that critique so they can get it right next time.

[nickcarraway]

Do you think this article would actually help someone make a more effective bomb?

“...The average IQ in Bangladesh is 82. I wonder which side of the bell curve he’s on.....”

With a bomb like that, you have to ask??? LMAO.

[BitWielder1]

Well, they have warned us for years that sugar is not healthy.

[Mr. Blond]

It stated why this bomb only partially detonated.

Sounds like he wasn’t packed too tightly, either...
