Our son’s grannies used to bring them home baked cookies and other treats.

Now they would be considered to be No Fly Risks.

One-will-get-you-three that these guys are ROPers.

I disagree, they were probably members of the local Seminole tribe!

Thanks for the ping. At least it’s not South Carolina this time.

Throwing stuff out the car window could be stupid, yes; or it could be a good way to get a cop to stop you at 2:30 in the morning.
I’m still thinking this was a test.

According to someone on an earlier thread here, PVC is used because the resulting bomb can go through x-rays without detection. They then apparently pack the explosives in something that can also go through x-ray machines (not the usual nails and metal shrapnel, in other words).

It probably wouldn’t do a lot of damage relative to other types of bombs, but I’m sure it would be pretty bad in an airplane cabin or even the baggage hold.

Retract that. It now appears they were just some overgrown boys who like to make things go boom. NTTAWWT. Just don’t combine it with driving around in the middle of the night, littering the landscape and annoying the bears.

Nope. Garden Variety idiots. From the Sun Sentinel: "Haugh asked the men what the devices were for, and the front seat passenger, identified as Aaron Spoerke, 21, of suburban Lake Worth, replied: "They are pipe bombs. I like to throw them into canals and watch them explode," according to the police report.

Good grief. How can anyone be so dumb, especially coming after last week's news about the guys in SC. Except these idiots probably don't even follow the news. It's beyond their reading level.

Could be a test but again common sense is not a commodity of which Muslims have an abundance.
