DEVELOPING: Authorities have found what appear to be "improvised explosives" and materials to make homemade bombs at a home in Connecticut.

Police and FBI agents are at the scene Thursday and authorities are waiting for a judge to sign a search warrant application.

Amish?

Yup. "Tonight we're gonna party like it's 1699!"

I wonder if "at a home in Connecticut" vs "in a home in Connecticut" is significant.

Maybe the material was found in the trash can, or otherwise on the property, but not in the building?

Don’t react yet until we know all the facts. Remember, this is the same law enforcement and press that calls 50 rounds of ammo in the house a “stockpile” or “arsenal.”

Could just be a badly prepared holiday roast.

I guess that means I better stop using my wood-stove....

The American dream.

[Never on my watch]

...it makes me wonder how many of them are in rural Arkansas or the mountains of Montana plotting something similar.

Shoot, I'm suspicious of just about every convenience store (and taxi cabs). Oh heck, there I go profiling again.

There was smoke coming from the house and the firemen found the devices when they entered.

Where are the horse and buggy?

"I think you have to have something a little more significant than a bottle of bleach for this terminology to be relevant."

With the pompus, self-aggrandizing Feds we have today, it could be bad stuff OR it could be a couple boxes of whistling Moon Travelers and a brick of Black Cats.

Wonder how close this is to the Horsepistol.

[theDentist]

Thanks! I guess someone was making some Amish New Year’s poppers.

[Lazamataz]

I’m thinkin’ more like Camel and Oil Rig.

[nomad]

And here I thought it was the Amish.

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

When I was a kid, I mixed vinegar and baking soda to make a lot of bubbly stuff. Today that would be called a bomb and there would be arrests.

[mrmeyer]

Not when you’re on a fishing expedition.

I think 50 government agencies with 1000 government employees, evacuate half the city, and burn the house to the ground.

I think 50 government agencies with 1000 government employees should respond, evacuate half the city, and burn the house to the ground.

[Blue Turtle]

...and let’s not forget, New Haven WELCOMES illegals.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Peter Wells, who lives doors away from the home, said a "few guys" had moved into the residence on Sunday.

Friends of Julian Assange or of Al Queda?
