SPOKANE — The FBI is searching for the person connected to a possible attempted bombing in Spokane. The bomb was found along the Martin Luther King parade route. The bomb could have caused multiple deaths if it had exploded says the FBI.

The FBI is offering a $20,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of people responsible for placing the backpack on a bench.

At approximately 9:25 a.m. Monday, a suspicious backpack was discovered on a bench at the southeast corner of N. Washington Street and W. Main Avenue in downtown Spokane.

The Spokane Explosives Disposal Unit was notified and safely neutralized the device.

During the investigation, it revealed the backpack contained a potentially deadly destructive device, likely capable of inflicting multiple casualties.

It is easy to plant false evidence to divert attention from the correct motive.

Coeur d’Alene, Idaho isn’t far away.

Biggest white supremacist camp in the country there, iirc.

Just what we need, more senseless violence. The idiot or idiots that did this should be condemned as cruel and dangerous.

Never mind the obvious frame-up potential of it happening at a MLK parade, I’m very dubious of the “bomber” leaving a T-shirt in the same backpack. He decided to use a backpack that he’s had for quite some time, and “forgot” he left “his” t-shirt in it?

Why would a city with only 3% blacks have a MLK parade?

white guilt?

My thoughts exactly. The left has the most to gain. The right gains nothing.

Shall we suggest the SPLC, the New Black Panther Party or maybe the folks over at the DSA. Anyone of them are up to their eyeballs provolking violence.

Ha, excuse me, TWO shirts in the backpack, the other one says “Treasure Island Spring 2009” but doesn’t look fancy enough to come from the casino IMO:

Not really anymore. Butler got sued and the Aryan Nations went bankrupt about ten or eleven years ago. Most of the members defected after the Keenan's got the compound. I haven't heard much about them for years.

Every four or five years someone tries to revive it and passes out a few fliers but I don't think its realistic to call the Couer d'Alene area a white supremacist camp.
