I’m thinking idiot.

I always thought maximum terror could be achieved by targeting smaller towns.

Remember the surburban DC sniper who killed several and tied law enforcement in knots for weeks?

[GeronL]

A lot of people (liberals?) wouldn’t care if it happened to a small town, they feel like small towns are a different planet. lol. flyover country.

I get your point though. Maybe hitting the suburbs would do it.

“Authorities are responding to devices found at a state House
office building in Annapolis, Maryland, and at the Maryland
Department of Transportation headquarters in Hanover, Maryland, said Philip McGowan.”

[HereInTheHeartland]

“Similarity in appearance of digits.”

They both contain 1’s and 0’s.

[demsux]

I’ve had the same thought about 1/9/11

[dfwgator]

Holder and Napolitano are probably already blaming it on right-wingers.

[Red Badger]

Dont worry, its not terrorism....

[GeronL]

They usually pre-rule out terrorism don’t they?

[brytlea]

You apparently have no imagination.

[dinoparty]

Funny.

Given the 9/11 (U.S. attack) and 3/11 (Madrid attack), I think its clear they plan attacks sometimes based on date similarities. Nice try at an insult, though.

[Maringa]

Seems too small potatos (though equally tragic) for AQ...AQ will try to exceed or make a much more spectacular than this...We’ll see..this will depend only if there are several more explosions at other locations...

[brytlea]

Well, guess she bombed too.

[Hoodlum91]

I’ve felt the same way. I’ve actually had someone tell me that we should stop acknowledging 9/11 because it didn’t affect them since they lived in Wisconsin.

I have very little doubt that AQ knows that a lot of middle America feels perfectly safe.

[publana]

If a terrorist, he is rather inept. Very small mail bombs that each caused a flame to come out of it. Not big explosion causing death and destruction; thus my tendency to think an idiot.

[Diogenesis]

"two packages "gave off a small explosion or flare-up when they were opened"
at two Maryland state government buildings."

"...no one was hurt in either incident.
The Jeffrey Building in Annapolis houses the state Homeland Security office,
the Secretary of State and Veterans Affairs offices
and some divisions of the governor's office"

[Never on my watch]

The “It's Not Terrorism Task Force” (INTTF) is en-route to the scene right now

[null and void]

The day is young.

[dfwgator]

Perhaps it’s meant to be a diversion.

[brytlea]

And if you are and the nine/six (upside down) thingie. For those of us who are dyslexicy.
