Evidence is being sent to ATF in D.C. so we might get closer to the truth.

It’s the pizza guy!

Millions of packages go out every day. The chance of one having a bomb is about the same as you winning the lottery. But the police need to be more forthcoming.

I was looking at the route also. I'd say split the distance and make a circle.

My thoughts is he went North first....went home....then went south....

He might repeat this pattern....or go east home west.

There has to be pre-hit surveillance...like the DC sniper.

Presser with police chief. Nothing much new. Similar but different than previous bombs (they all went boom?). No follow up on last night’s backpack on nearby Eagle Feather street.

Subdivision will continue to be on lockdown until 2 pm. That’ll tick off the one neighbor who couldn’t get home to his laptop last night. Oops, another dingbat, who’s nervousness might be affecting her infant, will likely need to increase her therapy sessions.

Heads up, thugs. The cops are all in SW Austin so very little presence in the rest of the city. Just sayin’.

[dfwgator]

That’s the big fear....copycats.

Thanks for the update

Ah....back pack...

Looking at the proximity of the sites...my gut tells me the perp goes to the University of Texas....Wonder if there has been Muslim activity there lately.

W/o reading more reports, I’d narrow it to Moslem or Anti-fa types.

More likely Anti-fa type, because Moslems don’t usually hide (and they usually like to blow up in the process). They like to make it widely known they should get credit.

Unless you’re a white slav Moslem like those Boston guys.

But again, it could be anything.

http://www.kentondre.com/ Snort, snort. Run out of his spare bedroom. The "noncommercial studio" guy is New Jersey, Ken P. Tondre, 48, drummer for country singer Kevin Fowler. $70k income is a joke for a real studio. Property tax records from 5 years ago up to today, 3/19/2018 at 11:27 am, don't mention this guy at all and no social media or family connection to the homeowners so perhaps he's renting. Big whoopty do. Can NOT stand Fowler and his annoying tv commercials. Local commercials is all I've ever seen or heard of him and my finger automatically clicks off the channel every time a commercial is on. Maybe I'll claim my home kitchen is 5 star and I'm an 18 year old fashion model.

The latest victims are white.

[Mears]

“tripped via a wire.”

Horrifying,and VERY tough to locate.

If the bomber contacts law enforcement to voice his reasons for doing this then that gives law enforcement an opportunity to figure out who it is.

Not unlike how publishing the Unibomber Manifesto led to the identification of the criminal responsible.

[Sacajaweau]

I didn't think it was about the victims. Any victim would do.

I'd be looking at a student at the University. Pretty noticeable that it's right in the middle of these hits.

Don't they get fingerprinted? They must have a print by now.

There were some real radical Muslims in Austin not too far back.

[a fool in paradise]

These weren’t actually mailed, just specially delivered by person or persons unknown

Late last night, there was talk about a “for sale” sign in the neighborhood that wasn’t supposed to be there but that story has also been dropped.

Lots of radical libs in uber lib sanctuary Austin. Twenty years ago, we were walking across UT campus and were harassed by middle eastern types who were protesting, hollering and being generally nasty and in your face scary. Ten years ago, you only saw Asian students in the music building and non speaking English. Then there was Prof. Pianka (well, all leftish wackadoodle profs as far as the eye can see) who taught his students how great it’d be to let loose Ebola to wipe out 90% of the population and that was before the Ebola scare. A couple years ago, it was Cocks Not Glocks with students protesting on campus carry with giant sex toys. Daughter’s dorm mate was an illegal on a full ride scholarship. No, it wasn’t my idea for daughter to go to UT and she didn’t last long there. UT is the Berkeley of the South.

The police chief is asking for anyone with video cameras on their houses. One would have thought they’d have gone full force gathering those for 3 weeks ago along with nearby street and store cameras. Surely they must have videos and fingerprints by now. This last bomb was right by a major road that has cameras.

Don’t know if foreign students are vetted enough to bother with fingerprints but TX drivers licenses and renewals require a thumbprint and Wells Fargo Bank takes prints if you want to cash a check. Bet other institutions take fingerprints, too, and ships them off to three letter gov agencies.

Austin is very much like old Russia in that you can’t just walk into an office without having to go through security or be escorted. Office building lobbies are doing away with directories so you have no idea what floor someone is on and that is if they allow you on the elevator. It’s turned into big brother and heil, Hitler.

[Sacajaweau]

Looks like the last bomb was on side street. I would say the perp pulled up to the curb, exited on curb side with the bomb, placed the bomb (maybe with short piece of trip wire) and got back in the vehicle which I suppose is a van type.

The other side of the street looks well treed/shrubbed. It would have been extremely difficult to observe this vehicle unless you heard it drive up.

Where is nosey Nelly when you need her?

[mikhailovich]

If I lived in Austin, it would be a long time before I bought any nails.

[txhurl]

Maybe this guy is upset Amazon didn’t pick Austin.

I have come to the conclusion that the Austin Bombings are classic ISIS IEDs probably using TAPD explosives. The attempt was to cause a race war by targeting minorities but the road side “trip wire” resulting in two white men being injured belies that. Classic IED. Our porous borders and Congressional failure to close the borders with a much needed Wall like they have built in Israel is now killing our citizens. I fear this is just the beginning. I knew it was coming and it is here now.
