6 forever stamps (3.00) isnt enough to ship a pipe bomb anywhere.

I probably missed this post watching the Dodgers FAIL. Maybe later tonight after work.

Anyways, 2 more bombs discovered today, one to Biden and one to Robert De Niro's restaurant. Fortunately they didn't go off either, apparently, some people believe that them not going off means they are facts I don't like, despite the FBI confirming they are very real bombs. But that's why they call them conspiracy theorists.

A working detonator is not required for a bomb to be considered a bomb.

lol, how much do you think it costs then? Would 7 forever stamps do the trick? I haven't mailed anything via USPS in a long, long time, but seems like each package had 6 stamps on it, I am more inclined to believe that's enough over your conspiracies.

Forever stamps just under 50 cents. So 6 stamps be under $3.00. So that would buy shipping an envelope that weighs about 8 oz.

Are these going through the mail with 6 forever stamps?

Want LA to win because they are the underdog. But Boston looks like they will win easily.
I still haven't forgiven the Dodgers for abandoning Brooklyn.
Now it is filled with ironic mustaches and hipsters galore !
See what happened!

6 bombs, and none went off... none. How many need to be found that don’t go off before that begins to seem fishy to everyone??

On Youtube, look up h3h3 Productions. It's a guy and his wife that basically make fun of odd or dumb ***on the internet or in the media.

I see.

Sorry if this breaks any rules posting the image, but taking this picture from the link Chanti provided, I would imagine that weighing at least a pound if it were real.

Yes but they should be filled with substance not hollow. Also terrible design, not saying I know how to make these, I would imagine these wrapped in nails or pennys or something to add extra damage when they go off.

I wonder if I have any spare PVC in my warehouse I can cut and fill with sand.

So if you wanted to kill someone woth a bomb dont you think you would put enough postage on it to get there?

The fact here isn’t enough postage kinda means whoever sent it knew it wouldn’t get where it was supposed to go.

Article I read somewhere this AM said filled with pyrotechnic powder and glass.

WTF is pyrotechnic powder? Other than, I assume, explosive.

Pyrotechnic powder is not the material you would use if you wanted to kill someone.

Deniro and so eone else got “bombs” too? That makes 8 bombs that didnt go off now?

Wow what a stroke of luck. (Sarcasm)

Just a reminder going into the midterms that Trump is MORE popular today than he was the day he was elected.

It's explosive. It's what they put inside fireworks like bottlerockets, concert pyrotechnics, sparklers are covered in the stuff. Term also applies to gunpowder.
Yah that's what I was thinking.

Exactly. Would you like to bet they won't ever find the perpetrator?

They probably will, but you never know what gets forgotten...

You guys are right about the postage.

It's powder that has a chemical reaction when in contact with fire, like gun powder or flash powder.
So could be gunpowder or black powder.

That's how I, in theory, would do it.

Btw, I checked, I don't have any spare PVC. =/

Sorry, not that simple. Republicans don't make up all of the ~45% approval rating (RCP average). His disapproval is just a point off its lowest score as well.

Also, the media is doing a terrible job of trying to disprove the false flag theory, because they're already using the "attacks" as a springboard to blame Trump. Meanwhile, the New York Times is already running a piece that fantasizes about a Secret Service agent working with a Russian assassin to take out Trump.

Good job on letting Trump take the high road on this, Party of Backfire™.
