    Yes, every rational person knew he or she was crazy the instant we heard the news story of pipe bombs being delivered all over the ****ing country.

    NO matter what the motive, risking a ****ing FBI manhunt shows a lack of desire for self preservation. That alone makes someone crazy.

    because we all wanted to make fun of you, @cml750, @MojoMan for being wrong (again). At least you had the guts to show your face again. CML seems like too much of a coward to come back. He'd rather continue being stupid rather than learn from his repeated mistakes.

    Really, nobody on the left was sweating that it might be some liberal false flag operation. That was just a right-wing fantasy no one else was buying. The thread blew up because they arrested a guy and a bunch of details came out that give us something to talk about.

    He also registered as a Republican in early 2016.

    Again? When was the first time? And don’t forget the details are still to come so don’t get too worked up. Regardless the dude looks like a straight up nut.

    A man who sends pipe bombs to politicians and celebrities risking a FBI manhunt on them is crazy?

    Hmm... I think you are on to something.

    If the Democrat left was going to put up a false-flag operation like this one, how would it be different from what we have seen here so far?

    All we know is that some guy in very left-wing South Florida was arrested that had Trump stickers all over his van - a van which was apparently in remarkably clean condition.

    What was his motive? Who did he work with on this? When did he start working on this? Where did he get the money for all of this? Has he received any suspicious payments lately? If so, how much and from who?

    He lives in his van, if reports are to be believed.

    You don't know jack squat. However, in typical leftist lynch mob fashion, you guys are prematurely jumping to conclusions based on what the partisan hack so-called journalists are telling you on television.

    How many times have you guys been down this same path and had it blow up right in your faces? How many? Answer: too many to easily be counted. Will you never learn?

    Good lord. Look, I'm happy to wait on the facts, like how many years in prison this man will be sentenced to. I'll have to set a Google Alerts to remind me a I said I told you so two years from now. But you were looney toons to think it was some left-wing false flag operation when we didn't know anything about the guy, and doubly so now. Trump-appointed Director Wray says he's the guy. Do you think Wray is in on it, or just not nearly as smart as you? Get a grip.

    you were wrong when you believed that there was a good chance that this was a false flag operation. Anyone that isn't next level stupid or straight up mentally ill would have understood that the chances of this being a "false flag operation" was incredibly slim and not even worth talking about.

    I would actually like even one example.

    Also, I've discussed this before.

    When you factor in opportunity cost into this situation, then it's much more likely that unadulterated hatred was the motive rather than wanting to set up a false flag understanding the FBI will do a thorough background life history check and thus sacrifice multiple decades in prison just for a couple of weeks of thinking that it was a right wing attack and then backfire into a worse narrative that it was a false flag from a 'democrat'. Only unadulterated hate would cause someone to sacrifice their self preservation in such an obvious manner.

    Unless you think the FBI is on in this.

    But I'm sure you haven't actually logically thought your 'false flag' narrative through. It's just wishful thinking on your part.

    Surprised he didn't pull his usual lie: "I didn't really know him long, he only got coffee.."

    BTW, he was briefed last night by the FBI. Do you believe they didn't show him a picture of the van, pictures of the suspect at trump rallies holding signs, etc? trump lies about everything.

    He may very well be one of the guys. Who are the other guys and what more is there to this than one guy who lives in a van spontaneously mailing out non-exploding pipe-bombs two weeks before a national election, that the Democrats are all of the sudden finding themselves in a real sweat over?

    That is what I want to know and that is what you are apparently remarkably incurious about. If you think what we know now is all that there is on this, then maybe you are the one that is "loony-tunes".

    Why, because someone told you so on television?

    And his lies sets himself up for failure. Pay attention to how he frames his lie.

    His framing of his lie suggests that yes, it does matter if the suspect is a massive supporter of his because why is he trying to downplay how massive of a worshiper he was of Trump? Because Trump knows it's a very damaging situation.

    It also suggests how utterly dumb Trump is because of how easily the lie is disproved.

    Up to 58yrs? Why isn’t this a life sentence?

    Did Soros pay a felon with no relatives to send a bomb to his own home in exchange for a life sentence? You don't have to be a hillbilly its really your own choice.
