Austin Bomber

Suspect caught - blew himself up.

Not identified, but 24 year old male. Who's gonna bet he was not a "Lost Boy" ?

Sounds like a home grown terrorist, bomb skills exhibited seem to indicate some sort of training, although you can find online training for almost anything today (sadly).

You said “terrorist”. You wont hear that on the news. Why? He was probably a misguided white boy. If he was a Muslim there would be a totally different spin on this.

I agree. Terrorist is a good description.

That's probably why we haven't received a lot of info on this. They are trying to decide how to proceed with the "Spin"

I know one thing for certain. We all need to have more bombs. If everyone was concieling a bomb, they could protect us from other bombers. We would have good guy bombers protecting us from bad guy bombers......

There was a recent article of fairly smart person in NatSec circles on a bit of a crusade to have the government chase "Right Wing Extremeism". This guy is pretty smart but extensively left leaning.

Would not the proper criteria to be to look into ALL Extremism? Regardless of Political Bend or religious ideology? All extremism is a threat?

I would hope not, but violent extremism doesn't really matter which side it is on. Does it?

No, it doesn't but the current political climate with the polarization on both sides gives people justification for their extreme views.

You are right, but it is an abundance issue. Over the last decade or so something like 75 percent of murder by domestic extremists were by right wing extremists. Left wing extremism has been pretty unusual post Vietnam era.
