I was thinking the same thing, while reading the responses.

First, that it could just be exxagerated. Like in your case.

But just for a minute, let's pretend that the guy WAS intending to blow people up...

That STILL doesn't make him a terrorist.

That makes him a criminal.

"Terrorist" is thrown around too much, since 9-11.

It, in itself is a form of terrorism, that the gov uses, to keep the sheeple afraid. Because scared sheeple are easier to control and subjucate.

Let's not feed into the propaganda of the man.

I doubt his motives were exclusively scientific progress, he has three prior convictions for bank robbery, not that I'm suggesting anything, just HE and grenades could "aid" one in such activities.

Edit: I agree that the T word is used mainly for sheeple, I daresay I could be labeled as such, thedisease.n3t, thehomegunsmith.c0m & roguesci torrents won't help, nor a few improv weapons.

@DYI

The news reports said the police recovered, and I quote, "hundreds of pipe bombs, grenades, and land mines" from my shed

You do remember that he was using it as a backstop, right?

Also:

There is no reason to have so many improvised explosives in your home

Guess I should keep quiet about what you're planning for New Year's, eh?

I guess I was asking for that in my defense, the applications of those explosives in the past has either been for experimental or legitimate practical uses (i.e. agricultural blasting), and they're kept in a safe place. If they detonated, people wouldn't be hurt.

By the way; my justification for calling him a terrorist.. Not only does he allegedly have a house filled with grenades, he's on charges of robbing 3 banks. With actions like that, I don't think I'm wrong to be slightly questioning of his motives.

Sloped surfaces? Injurious heights? Rickety plastic deck chairs? Alcohol?

This is how I picture them

This is not a car.

This is an Audi motorcycle.
