Theodore “Ted" Kaczynski, known as the “Unabomber,” has died in federal prison, a spokesperson for the Bureau of Prisons told The Associated Press on Saturday.

Kaczynski was found dead around 8 a.m. at a federal prison in North Carolina. A cause of death was not immediately known.

He had been moved to the federal prison medical facility in North Carolina after spending two decades in a federal Supermax prison in Colorado for a series of bombings that targeted scientists.

Kaczynski was serving life without the possibility of parole following his 1996 arrest at the primitive cabin where he was living in western Montana. He pleaded guilty to setting 16 explosions that killed three people and injured 23 others in various parts of the country between 1978 and 1995.

“Kaczynski was an Eco Terrorist, a Luddite, an Earthy-Crunchy. He had nothing to do with racial politics.”


I know that and you know that, and the media was aware of that fact at the time. But watch and see if they now do not find a way to connect him to conservatives.

Pollard was mistakenly blamed for the crimes of Aldrich Ames, as well as his own crimes. https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/43999 For what he actually did, Pollard should have been sentenced to 10 years or less.

The manifesto is interesting reading but it got to be that Teddy was in it for the game. How he figured that societal change could be accomplished by blowing up faculty secretaries and assistant professors is a little hard to fathom.

First Hansen now UnaTed. It’s a good start, but only if a few outside the walls should be “found dead”.

Look for brandon’s bosses to investigate far more energetically than they did epstein.

He died on a Saturday morning in a federal prison just like Jeffrey Epstein.

From Wiki...

"The U.S. government seized Kaczynski's cabin, which they put on display at the Newseum in Washington, D.C., until late 2019, before it was transferred to a nearby FBI museum."

Oh, yes. I realize that you know that. I just wanted to underscore his motivations for the folks in Rio Linda.   :)

Here is one brief example from today’s Michigan Live coverage:
“In a 1985 attack, Kaczynski mailed a bomb to prominent University of Michigan psychology professor James V. McConnell, a leading figure in behaviorism. The blast wounded graduate assistant Nicklaus Suino and damaged McConnell’s hearing, according to MLive files.”

I worked at U. of Michigan in those years. The main overlooked story is that in all universities the actual professors don’t get the cart of mailroom packages and take out a Swiss Army pocket knife and open them.

Bombers are threatening to the support staff, especially clerks and student assistants who do the work. They are the ones at risk of being killed. Secretaries are next (as one who had sharp wooden splinters blasted into her arms and abdomen by a letter bomb they opened on a desk-—addressed to her boss.

So these filthy killers endanger people who have nothing to do with their personal grudges and manias. Bosses most often hear the bomb go off from another room.

Oh, hadn’t heard about HansSen (the spy). No loss. Hansen’s a serial killer from Alaska. (also reaping his just rewards)

Yep. The same way they try to claim NAZIs are ‘right-wing’, instead of the leftard socialists they actually were.

If you put a hermit in jail is that really punishment?

I agree. What little I learned about him (news, documentaries, etc), I concluded he did it because he thought he was too smart to get caught. First and foremost, he was a classic narcissist. It seems he had some capacity for remorse which would make him a sociopath, as opposed to, a psychopath.

IMO.

Brown's criticisms of slavery were spot on, his methods, not so much.

I wouldn't say that. Didn't Brown want to deport the Negros?

I guess his death means he’ll once again be voting by mail for Democrats.

No, what he did should have led to his summary execution. And I have never seen anyone ever suggest his was a patsy or fall guy for Ames or anyone. Pollard was a eff’n traitor and should have been executed. The US should track him down even now and execute him.
