Several blocks of the deadly C-4 explosive were found Monday morning in a Lower East Side cemetery, police sources said.
There was no cap or detonating device with the blocks, meaning they could not have exploded.
"But it's still C-4, so it's being taken very seriously," a police source said.

A dime-sized ball lit with a lighter to heat a C-rat.
There’s a pink kind they let kids play with.
But does it work as well on D-Rats.....
Most calls we had for local graveyards was old dynamite left in the gravediggers shack. This was used to bust up frozen ground in hard winters. RSP ...crapload of finger nail polish remover ..... If gallons of acetone couldn’t be located ...:o)
Stay Safe !
I dunno. Let’s ask Jimmy Carville to have a seat on Doc’s camp stove. My guess is, he’d invent a few new dance steps.
they should have kept quiet and watched and waited for the pickup guy. this is obviously a transfer. teh pickup guy would pick it up and leave behind soem cash, or mayeb teh cash had already been paid.
would have been nice to catch the guy. now he can do it agin somewhere else.
That was my thought also. They’re gathering voters. I hope the skeletons have their IDs. They all look alike.
Church key , P38 .....both were around....:o)
whatever it is, you can bet they know its not terrorist related

Yep, some middle-aged white guy upset about Obamacare....
Nope. The super-secret leaders of the tea party have sent out the word to their mindless followers: blow up as many graveyards as you can to prevent the dead buried there from voting this November; if you can’t blow them up, then steal the corpses and hold them hostage until after the election.

” 8 sticks of C-4. No ignition device.”
-NYC Police Commissioner
A note found on a police car with “religous” (which religion) sentence not connected. Uh huh.
Yeah but when you had to move out you'd better take a breath and gently blow the small blue flame out rather than stomp on it with your foot or KA-BOOM! I ran a demo range once and discovered all of that neat stuff from the NCO's that helped.
Let me ask this, if you are digging a hole to plant a tree and you dig up a plastic bag with someting in it, would you not be curious about what you dig up?
How powerful is 8 sticks? Can It blow up a car?
Weatherfolks like Bill Ayers, SDS members, Puerto Rican nationalists this could be fun. I hope there are prints.
The typical C4 demo block is roughly 2 inches by 2 inches by 18 inches long. A half block can blow a 2-1/2 ton truck into the air a pretty good distance. C4 is much more powerful than dynamite and, because it can be molded like modeling clay, can be formed around the target.
To answer the original question — a C4 block (or half block) could turn the average car into scrap metal very effectively.
don't know if that theory's really been tested to date...
