Texas bombing suspect 'shot dead in standoff with FBI and police'

I said "was". The cops got serious when the trip wires went of on some white boys. Kind of like the MSM.

 

Well you see, I'm an eye-for-an-eye man, and make no apology for it. I also believe that even a psycho will hold back if he knows that the 'table with straps on it' awaits when he's caught; although sometimes I guess they're so crazy they'll go ahead with an atrocity anyway. But at least a few lives will be spared when the sensible ones cancel any plans they might be making when remembering they'll end up on that table if they don't cancel those plans?

 

I personally am inclined to believe(especially since he went through the trouble of going to a Fedex that I doubt was anywhere near his own vicinity) that he chose his victims at random. There is no connection, other than at first their minority status. Then there's the fact of the trip wire itself, which suggests more randomization. Not caring who his targets were. His slipups, which also could've easily been avoided(Can you imagine if he continued to personally deliver bombs doorstep to doorstep overnight? The body count would've been significantly higher.) also suggested carelessness(as well as the suicide itself.)

There's a disregard for human life(others and his own) that you wouldn't find in a politically-motivated or racially-motivated killing. And that might just be sad(not only for PF, but for the victims. There'll likely be no closure here.)

My guess is that he wanted to alternate killing methods to keep the LEO's guessing, but this is a classic and dumb thought by a criminal. The more you diversify your crimeset, the easier it is in fact to get caught. Especially since LEO's these days in the post 9-11 world are trained to take everything into account and not treated as isolated incidents.

While I don't want to go on a control-freak like scenario and I do generally disagree with the idea that banning things is always the answer, but I think if we license explosives and things of that nature to those who are known to be responsible in handling it that might help.

 

I agree with you

 

Another thing I'm thankful for, is that none of his devices were remote-controlled. I mean, dear god what a nightmare if he got to that point. This kind of direct violation of an American neighborhood is far scarier than the Boston Marathon. It represented a threat to our neighborhoods. This is no longer political left/right, we need to take the fight to terrorism and stop being defensive.

 

There we go, diminishing the event because "Narrative". I knew I wouldn't be disappointed if I was patient.

 

Ouch

I wonder what the technology behind the tracking of his mobile phone is capable of? Did the police just enter the coordinates of the bombs and the computer found the solution by providing every mobile phone to visit all of those locations?

Kinda scarry.

 

Dude, I live here and the cops went ape **** when the first one went off. You are either ignorant of the facts, or you are lying.

 

Right, the state needs to prove guilt in open court. We can't just take the states word that x happened.

 

Vengeance is sadly human nature. It's what we are(for better or worse.) While I did say there wouldn't be any closure(in terms of knowing the motive), there is closure in knowing he's dead. If I were one of the family members of the victims, I'd wish that there were such a thing as hell and that he'd rot in it. Because cruelty is both unspeakable and unforgivable to hoist upon another human being.

There'd probably be some satisfaction in jeering him in a court room, but if it were my family members yes I'd wish death upon the plague that happened to take the shape of a human body.

 

I'd hate to be the first one to enter his home or place of work. The pucker factor would be off the scale.

 

From your link: "The suspect died as members of the FBI made efforts to arrest him in Round Rock near Austin."

Good on the FBI if true but the preponderance of reports is saying local cops. Anyone got a more definitive article?

 

Hmm...white male...targeted minorities...to the Trump White House, this is definitely NOT terrorism. I’m sure Trump will call him “very fine people”.

 

Just to be clear, I heard about the shooting on Monday. I am shinning a light on the media and democrat politicians that have ignored this story when it was only black families who had been harmed.

 

Hmmmm, black people being bombed with no suspect for weeks, no mention on the mainstream media or democrats calling for a fedex regulation on shipping explosives. Its almost like they couldn't use it for a political narrative so they ignored it, like they do with all the deaths by guns in Chicago, Detroit and DC.

 

Shipping explosives is already illegal.

 

Worst reporting ever. The video of the event will show that the bomber detonated a bomb and blew himself up. A police officer then shot at the vehicle.

 

I appreciate the clarification, I rescind my condemnation. Apologies.

 

Except the Trump White House has a difficult time calling out White supremacist terrorism.

 

The first few bombs on the East side were hand delivered, there was no way to id the guy... but you gotta know that local news was all about the bombs, just sayin.

 

No, you just don't like it when Trump blames both sides. You want all blame to fall on right wing Whites.

 

Exactly, I couldn't believe the stupid condemning of the President's words. I was like "This is where we are, really?" All pretenses of civility as it regards the POTUS is simply gone. That was sadder than the actual murder hit-and-run itself.

 

What "media" do you watch? It's been on the news every frickin' day in Fort Worth since it began.

 

I'm just glad for the people in Texas, the people most affected that the situation if not resolved at least is significantly clearer. No more having to suspect your fellow Texans for the most part.

 

Right, what happened on both sides in Charlottesville to justify running down protestors again?
