Would this envelop not feel exceptionally heavy as in comparison to a box, which is what most mail bombers have usually used. Would the metal edges of a pipe tear it as it went through the mailing process. These are good questions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A REAL right-wing activist might consider attacking Soros, or CNN. But Obama ? Why would they want to kill Obama ? He's part of history, and has zero influence in the coming elections ? Early days, I know, but this IS starting to look suspicious. The Obama thing seemes off to me too. Its supposed to be just because he's the black president that all trumpsters hate for no other reason than he's black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would usually put it in a hard box and rig it to go when the box was opened. The soft package doesn't really work that well for it. I would think it would be in a box. Why would someone mail it in a soft envelop where you can feel what's inside it? Did you ever pick up a Christmas gift and press on it so you could try and guess what's inside? If it felt like a hard tube going to an address with security, it's amazing it wasn't check out before it was delivered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bee Posted October 24, 2018 #82 Share Posted October 24, 2018 This fake business is getting out of hand...now we have FAKE assassination attempts...? * ''''''no one was harmed in the making of this electioneering drama'''''' * I will stand corrected if someone is actually caught and charged and it was a genuine but botched attempt... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted October 24, 2018 #83 Share Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) I don't think any of them were meant to go off. The way they mishandle mail at the post office would have set those soft packages off. Besides that, the odds are at least one out of all of them would have been detonated. It would have to be someone totally inept for all of them to fail. Amateurs accidentally blow themselves up pretty often.

I stand corrected aztek. You're right. I didn't notice they haven't been crossing them out. Most of my mail comes from companies that use Pitney Bowes or something. But my niece had sent me pictures and used stamps to mail them. They must be using something else to mark the stamps so they can't be reused. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark_Grey Posted October 24, 2018 #92 Share Posted October 24, 2018 For reference, this is the mail bomb sent by Ted Kaczynski, "the Unabomber" A typical pipe bomb for reference: and this is what was sent/delivered on Monday: It looks more and more like someone with 0 experience tried to make the kind of bomb you see in movies. Why bother having such a large, visible timer? Tom Sauer, the supposed bomb expert I quoted, is right - there is no reason to have a wire coming out both ends of the bomb other than optics. To top it all off, there's an ISIS logo on the side? Guys, if you are up to speed on all the facts so far, you have to do some real mental gymnastics to think this is a legit terrorist attack. Not to mention no terror was implemented as not a single bomb actually exploded. How...lucky? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done conspiracy theorists and those politicians who promote such nonsense for their own political gain. Something like this has been brewing for a good while. The way some of the numpties on here post about the targets, and how much they salivate at the prospect of civil war, I wouldn't be surprised if it was one of them. I haven't read the thread yet, but I wonder how long it took for someone to mention the dastardly Antifa. Here's what you said about Antifa. And yes, you are!

Even the post office it was mailed from. Post 9/11 mail is checked for things like this. If it made it to CNN, I'd like to know how.

I've always been required to provide one whether sending or receiving. Still, whoever handled this package should have felt what was in it. It should have drawn suspicion.
