Re: Headline News Thread

The AN-12 is one old bird. Even the youngest models, produced in the early 70s, would be over 45 years old. Plus, we're talking Soviet technology, so I'm surprised there are still some being operated, even as cargo planes.

In Knuckistan, not only is it legal to do what he did, it’s borderline illegal to feed prisoners.
 
Re: Headline News Thread

Um. Another bomb went off on Texas.

You aren't supposed to know about this. My FB feed says no one is paying attention to it because (fill in inflammatory political agenda) despite my feed also being plastered with things about it and it is all over TV.
 
Re: Headline News Thread

Apparently authorities intercepted one unexploded at a FedEx plant. That should help matters.

1. (LES!) The first time the bombs were reported here (that I know of) was when they connected the first two. So it was a delayed response, but non-stop since.
2. The FedEx bomb went off prematurely, from my understanding. FedEx was NOT the target.
 
Re: Headline News Thread

Didn’t follow up but authorities are saying it’s not connected. Incendiary, but not a bomb.

Read any national outlet.

Not connected. There's the key to the storyline that is being talked about. Comprehend this.
 
Re: Headline News Thread

Yeah. It’s not.

It’s some yahoo copycat. It’s an incendiary. Which likely means some moron mailed a couple of Roman candles with wires coming out of them instead of it being a sophisticated bomb.

Most likely correct. So that's not the real story here. The story is the allegedly serial bomber who knows what he's friggin' doing, and that's dam scary.
