A few observations from a former bomb disposal officer...

A few observations from a former bomb disposal officer (i.e. Me):

1. Proper pipe bombs don't have wires connected to both ends. That's dumb.

2. You can find timers / remote control receivers WAY smaller than whatever that white box is. A proper timer would best be stored inside the pipe, making it fully encapsulated. That thing is just silly looking.

3. "Hoax Devices" are FAR more common than real ones. In which case, we should ask ourselves what the motives of the "bomber" are and "who benefits?" Go ahead. Think deeply and critically.

4. Bottom Line: Whoever made that wanted it to be painfully obvious to anyone and everyone that it's a "bomb."

This is nearly the same as a bundle of road flares wrapped together with an old-timey alarm clock ticking away.

Antifa people didn’t go to science class. They were taking sappy social justice classes.

EXACTLY, I can’t believe most have not picked up on that, particularly after years of IED detection in Iraq and Afghanistan. It looked like something you could buy at Spencer’s Gifts at a mall.

Method.
Motive.
Opportunity.

That’s that is needed to convict based on circumstantial evidence.

Just like the fat, bald democrat with several previous arrest records accused of groping a woman on a SouthWest air flight “because Trump groped women before”

Timing: 2 weeks before mid-terms

Anarchists: bombs are their traditional tools.

Delivery: Through the U.S. mail? Bomb would have to be totally safe to do that and expect it to get to the intended target(s).

The clock is just some digital clock, not a timer

How do you set off a bomb with out a timer circuit?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Small-Black-Electric-Digital-LCD-Clock-Date-Time-Calendar-Ultra-thin-Car-Clock/192319744986?_trkparms=aid%3D555017%26algo%3DPL.CASSINI%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D54339%26meid%3D6b033370354a4dee89dbd3d3c820a6c6%26pid%3D100505%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26%26itm%3D192319744986&_trksid=p2045573.c100505.m3226

That is the clock the democrats used, $2.85, Soros isn’t the big spender he once was

At least they were devious enough to not put a BOMB label on each one.

How is it CNN is able to post video and photos of evidence in an investigation within an hour of discovering a bomb? What dumbass took the video of this "real" pipe bomb?

I say these all had bomb components but could never have been detonated and a Dem Lib Loon staged this hoping to make it look bad for us
