Explosive Device Detonated in Nederland Shopping Center

[Irving]

In this situation of course a jar full of fasteners is alarming. In general, if we start detonating every mason jar full of nails/screws found, I know a whole bunch of middle-old men that are about to lose a garage/workshop.

Just a clock, move along...

someone demonstrate it for you know who.

A local said there was a mason jar filled with "something" and it had nails, etc. sticking out of it. It was also connected to a cell phone with some wires.

This is unconfirmed, but it would make me need a change of shorts if I found it.

Very disconcerting since I most of the people over there.

No kidding man. I know folks are making light of it because nothing happened, and that's cool. But this thing was found real close to the carousel that I take my daughter to. There's a day care next to the cop shop too, isn't there?

If this went off and killed folks, we'd be all over the news right now.

That nothing happened is a god send. This targeting of cops is crazy and has to stop. Have a grievance fine, this is not an acceptable way to take that up. Stay safe guys. I hope you catch this ass.

Well, we need a law against this kind of stuff or it will keep happening.

Maybe even restrict the number of nails that can be bought at one time and start checking IDs for jar (kids don't need jars).

No kidding, oh and don't forget to put in another order for some more MRAPS and armoured personnel carriers.

You're on to something here. Great for plowing over the illegal hippie camps.

Direct left side of the cop shop is a pre-school. Above is a diner. Right is a laundromat. Next to that is more innocents.

Not a good situation all the way around.

For those not in the know, the owner of the Carousel of Happiness is a big supporter for PTSD miltary individuals. IE: A friend.

In case that's directed at me, I was merely poking fun at the quoted person's poor phrasing. I've been to that carousel and market several times; it would be awful if that became the scene of a domestic terrorist event.
