Someone wanted to murder 1⁄2 dozen leaders of a major political party...in America FFS.
Yeah, either the individual or group wanted to murder them, or built what experts are labeling 'functional' pipe bombs without the intent to detonate them. Whether the intent was murder, or intimidation, or hoax..............it's domestic terrorism with severe legal penalties.
I see that outspoken Trump critic Robert DeNiro is the newest target identified. His Tribeca Grill restaurant in NYC reported receiving a suspicious package early this morning.
LE is examining it, along with the other 9 pipe bombs intercepted thus far.
After his statement yesterday calling for unity, President Trump went back to his usual unpresidential self. He's using the threats as an opportunity to blame the main stream media for not being positive enough in their coverage of him.
I'm not surprised, but it is disappointing.
Fortunately, government security and law enforcement agencies are busy trying to locate any other pipe bomb packages which may be circulating and holding violent political individuals and groups accountable.
Some of the violent right-wing groups, like the Rise Above Movement (RAM), have been profiled and praised by non mainstream media (like the racist 'Daily Stormer').
