“16 inactive pipe bombs “

Yes, I remember reading at the time that they were fake bombs, would frighten people, but would not go off.

It was still a terrible thing to do, but I think 20 years is too much for it.

They should have made him do volunteer work for a few years.

Meanwhile, this man will get less than 1 year in prison, if convicted:

IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY THIS GUY IS A HARD-CORE LEFTIST, AND THOUGHT WOULD GET SYMPATHY FOR DEMOCRATS BY DOING THIS.

My take is that Cesar was somebody's patsie. Not meaning to be insulting, but he came across as mentally challenged. There was a rather large kerfuffle when this came up a year ago (roughly) and it turned out that he sent nothing really 'dangerous'. Inactive 'stuff' that appeared to be dangerous. It was weird, because the person who sent it knew he'd be in big trouble - even if the stuff was basically harmless. I say 'basically' because the recipient would not know the stuff was fake, and he could have suffered a fatal heart attack. If nothing else - the diversion of important resources might have allowed real crimes to occur elsewhere.
Nonetheless, 20 years seems awfully harsh - and I'd still like to know who put him up to this lame-brain idea.

...inactive pipe bombs...


Did they ever get around to telling us just what these “pipe bombs” consisted of?

My distinct impression at the time was that they were incompetently made and posed little danger. Like they were made of road flares or something. In other words possibly flammable but not explosive.

I suspect the term “inactive pipe bombs” makes the devices sound far more serious than they actually were.

No sympathy from me except maybe the part about 20 years.

Is the woman who held up a fake decapitated head of the President still free?
