And per reports, was "home schooled", I don't know if that means 12 years or what. But the article I posted says that.

Also, the cell phone, you can use it for any number of reasons, but somehow, Law Enforcement honed in on it? Calling someone??

The sisters accounts show homeschooling too, not for trouble or a cult that I can tell. They seem to be over achiever types.

If I had to guess at this point, intelligent but mentally ill (unibomber type).

My theory? No political motivation whatsoever, just a disorganized schizophrenic nutso like a lot of these guys.

So, leave out the "loner" part   :pondering:, his 2 room mates are in custody. Also, as said, it wouldn't mean he was calling an accomplice on the phone but that can not be ruled out since his phone was how they tracked him in part.

I'm still not ruling out the racist angle just yet. That would probably mean accomplices. I wonder if he bricked his hard drive.

Austin Bomber.


Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

Something happened to this kid in the last five years. I wonder if we'll ever get the true story.

I would be cautious about that one. Blogger.com info like dates are easy to fake (they actually let you change the dates on posts and don't track dates on profile changes. The odd thing is archive.org only has one cache all these years which is today...

So, he had a sister; I can't imagine what families go through.

 Even at our bank, a woman who works there with an uncommon name for the most part, well, in a nearby town, a male with that same last name killed someone drunk driving. I thought, there could easily be a familial relationship, relatives or something. It wouldn't be easy to live with but something as this bomber did is of the utmost deviousness.

Sad.  Wonder what made him snap??   **nononono*

I am interested to hear what medications he was on, if any.

BTW, the quality of comments on this thread is miles better than various other political sites I have checked this morning. Other sites seem obsessed with his race, many comments expressing various conspiracy theories regarding reporting of that, or are focused on painting him as either a conservative or liberal.

I want fresh ones, not the ones you put under the counter two months ago and just found them again.

Is this an indication that it was created today? So, leftists working quickly to paint perp as a conservative?

We fixed that problem!  Fresh, new ones everyday and usually there are Eclairs, too.

(I use the ones from under the counter as hockey pucks in the weekly Gymnasium Hockey games at the local Elementary School.)

"Exotic" batteries ordered online led federal and state authorities to the Austin bombing suspect before he died early Wednesday as police closed in, multiple senior law enforcement officials told NBC News.

...

 The batteries used in the explosives were the signature trait that allowed investigators to so quickly link the various explosions to the same man, sources said. One senior law enforcement official said the batteries came from Asia.

"These weren't your store-bought Duracells," one official said.

People talk about amazon and maybe, ebay too. I've seen investigative reports that have shown, one can get everything they want to build bombs from these places, at least amazon. I try and never support the monster.

@guitar4jesus

Since I have one of those blogs, or did, I rarely use it anymore, that looks fairly valid to me. One reads it and it looks like it was for a class, maybe at that community college and I look at the "classmates"; it almost looks like this was a class project because the titles for the "classmates" blog seem to be of the same kind of milquetoast quality.  He may have been a kind of conservative (as he calls himself) but he himself seems to hold it out a little to question. He's sure not a dyed-in-the-wool conservative type.

I thought on my blog, if I edit a post, it does go on to show that I did.

It could hint at least it wasn't used until today. It didn't have any activity that was tracked. Someone took an old unused blogger account, updated the profile with a new bio and quickly added politically charged blog posts with old dates.

Not saying this is the actual case, but stuff like this happens often when these events take place.

It just seems odd and is far too convenient.

(It could also be totally legitimate and just coincidence that it was never archived through all these years until today.)

Newest pic of perp:



Media narrative already starting to gel that he was a devout anti-homosexual and pro-gun Trump supporter.

If that pic is correct and recent he looks more like what you see at college protests than a 'devout mission-trip' type of Christian.

Hell, drive down to your local Walgreens. You can make a powerful explosive with easily accessible stuff. The easiest is a peroxide bomb.
