NEW YORK (AP) — Federal authorities have charged a New York man with building a 200-pound (90-kilogram) bomb they say he planned to detonate on Election Day on the National Mall in Washington.

They say “200 pound bomb” but what does that mean? 200 pounds of black powder (which is a LOT of black powder), 100 pounds of container? It’s one of those impressive numbers the media likes to get hold of and throw around, but what does it mean?
The question that’s been bugging me is how he was going to get that 200 Lb. bomb out of his basement and transported to wherever he intended to detonate it?
TATP would be a good guess. It’s a favorite with terrorists, ingredients are easy to get, and it’s easy to make.
It’s also a high explosive and hard to detect.
The guy is a dictionary definition NUT. He’s angry because instead of elections he thinks we should choose POTUS and Congress AT RANDOM.
Bill Buckley once said he would prefer to be governed by 100 people randomly chosen from the Boston telephone directory, than the faculty of Harvard.
Was the guy a demoncrat?
Apparently, it was gunpowder (or black powder).
He just ordered 200lbs of it.
Jeez, that’s not how you do it. If you are planning that far ahead you should know that’s kind of a red flag.
But then again, if you are doing that—you probably are not open to advice.
News reports say he had containers of black powder.
He was going to have his dyke lesbo sister haul it up the stairs
—yep-—my tagline applies-—
A 180 lbs of sugar, 20 lbs of kicker charge and two flares would make one hell of a bang.
Good, now hang him!
“A 180 lbs of sugar, 20 lbs of kicker charge and two flares would make one hell of a bang.”
Yep, sugar is full of energy potential and can be quite explosive with the right additives, yet no one would suspect someone carrying it around. Following article is for example purposes only, I don’t advocate its use.
Anyone wonder if he was listening to Zero, Madd Maxine, Eric Holder, and Hillary?
If he were a Republican, it would be blaring 24/7 from the fifth-column leftist news media.
Tappan. Rockland County. Near the bridge.
Makes one wonder how many more nut jobs with bombs are out there, if one got caught. Uncertain times, indeed.
