Correct.

Sounds a bit fishy to me.

Which is why they retracted the White House package, as it doesn't fit the narrative.

Serious question:  why would you immediately think multiple explosive devices sent exclusively to Democrat leaders, a left-wing billionaire and various media outlets would be "fishy"?  Is the first and most obvious conclusion NOT "it sounds like an unhinged right-winger is responsible"?

If not, WHY THE FUCK NOT?  Come on, man.  You're smarter than that.

At least you didn't neg me.

If they arrest the guy with a "Trump" shirt on, that'll top it all off.

I mean, have you seen some of the things said in the politics board?  This is pretty tame thinking compared to some of that craziness.

Wake up, sheeple!  This is just like that time France was “invaded” by Nazi Germany.  What did the Germans have to gain from that supposed “invasion?”  When you take the blinder off and look at the facts, it’s clear the purported military “conquest” of France was, in fact, just a stunt coordinated by the French to make the Nazis look bad.

I'm not gonna neg you, Rip76.  I just don't know why "conspiracy" is the default explanation for a thoughtful person.

When the guy started shooting at the Republicans practicing for a baseball game, one thing that never entered my mind was "I bet it's a REPUBLICAN!".

Occam's Razor.  First thought:  it's a nutjob.  Second thought:  it's a far right nutjob.

Completely the same.

Russians.

I saw Putie Pute Pute with a shitload of boxes at the Moscow FedEx store.

So, the San Diego building where the Union Tribune is located also has the offices of Kamala Harris. 

Never mind.

Damn!  This is just like Michael killing off the heads of the five families.....

So, without bringing the Knights Templar into it, that seems like a whole lot of bombs that have not blown up.

Incompetence? Intention?

If incompetence, I'd expect one or two to go off early, preferably right next to the bomb-maker.

Should these bombs actually have the ability to detonate then the person making these was probably sophisticated considering none of these prematurely detonated.

No, not really.  Michael wasn't this incompetent.

It would be more like Fredo trying to kill off the heads of the five families.

Possible they were to trigger only when opened and none of them have been opened yet. I believe I heard some were found by xraying them during normal processing.

Probably right. I'm just comparing them to the bombs that idiot in Austin sent around, but those were to trusting people who went right ahead and opened them.

Package in Florida reportedly addressed to Eric Holder

CNN is saying it was sent to an incorrect address for Holder, then sent to the return address for Wasserman Schultz.  Apparently all of the packages had that return address to make them look legit.

They just started the active shooter alarm at my office in the FiDi. Being escorted out of the building now...

What is wrong with you people?

You are going to have to be more specific.

Never should have given Ted Kaczynski his postal privileges back.

So current options for this are:

1) Right wing lunatic sending bombs to all the boogeymen and women that Fox News and Trump talk about.  Logic?  None, but nuts don't work on logic.  

2) Left Wing conspiracy (given the bombs didn't explode) meant to endear sympathy for Democratic leaders and to encourage people to vote because Republicans are dangerous.  Logic? Not a lot and take a pretty big tin foil hat and cynical view to think this is possible.

3) Russians/Chinese behind these specifically to promote more discord since the above 2 possibilities are what partisans are going to believe.

 

Ima gonna go with #3.

Political conspiracies don't usually involve code red level felonies of the type that are routinely solved that would get all the actors tossed in jail for 40 years.

Yes, state actors committing acts of war is the most likely possibility here.

so this is the no sarcasm thread?  Ok, maybe move this to CR 

Your post was sarcastic?  #1 is far and away the most likely answer, but if you were trolling, good for you.  

How 'bout we just don't CR this thread up and keep it legit?

Sorry if that was sarcasm. Gil “pussy hat” bang disturbed my sarcasm radar earlier in the thread.

people suggest more lunacy than that on here every day.  it means we can only detect sarcasm if measurable in astronomical units.
