Times Square evacuated over suspicious "smoking" vehicle; bomb squad on scene - Polidicks

according to CNN it was "gas cans and bomb making materials", not a necessarily a failed bomb. [url]http://www.cnn.com/2010/CRIME/05/02/times.square.closure/index.html?hpt=T1[/url] [editline]03:58AM[/editline] whatever

I was there, made a thread about it in GD Heres a link - [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=932492[/url] It was pretty interesting considering it was utterly random.

Bomb has been Defused

[QUOTE=PrismatexV8;21684620]Exactly this. There will never be another 9/11-scale attack on US soil.[/QUOTE] Never say never. It's not likely, but it could be done, years down the line, when we've all had a chance to relax. I mean, the Airline bomber was just had bad luck in his attempt, and that was with a load of security measures!

I doubt it is militia. They aren't that crazy, they are just normal hicks except people know about them. They have been doing that shit for years. They are all talk and no action, plus they aren't anti-american. You are giving them too much credit. Yea, they are retards, but they aren't any more retarded than you because you believe that a bunch of hicks would pull something like this. Hicks are normally docile creatures, who reside in trailer parks or in backwater areas. They horde guns, have lots of bibles, and don't do anything except get drunk and fuck around.

They far from just hicks, they're pretty organized domestic terrorists, and there's more and more of them because of blind hatred for Obama While they're not necessarily anti-American, they're very anti American government, the ones that they got in Ohio were basically a christian version of Al Qeada, like I said, they planned on killing a cop, then blowing up his funeral with car bombs killing everyone, police, civilian, family alike, in an attempt to set off a 'christian revolution' They're completely nuts and think by murdering people they're "protecting the constitution" (but of course mostly just the part about guns) They're not just your gun hoarding good ole boys anymore, they're very dangerous. Of course it pisses me off whenever anyone with a conversative opinion and a gun collection gets lumped in with the militia types, but there are alot of them out there now, Obama and his 'EVIL SOCIALIST HEALTH CARE' are giving all these people a cause to rally behind, I wouldn't be surprised if it was one of these people. I really wish it was just hicks, but now that you have people out there like that giant ball of crazy Alex Jones, there are more and more people out there with this demented view on the world. [QUOTE=JDK721;21693051]He wasn't in a militia. [/QUOTE] he wasn't in one, but he was a militia sympathizer, his motivation was to start a revolt agianst the government and get revenge on the ATF for wasting that cult militia in waco so it is still pretty possible I wouldn't rule it out.

According to CNN: Vehicle Identification Number found on potential car bomb vehicle

That vehicle should quit smoking... ... he could get cancer.

[QUOTE=Technopath;21693571]That vehicle should quit smoking... ... he could get cancer.[/QUOTE] no

[QUOTE=Technopath;21693571]That vehicle should quit smoking... ... he could get cancer.[/QUOTE] :doh:

It's only a matter of time until a bomb goes off successfully, those people in times square got lucky.

[quote]EXPLOSIONS WERE WATER CANNONS[/quote] This confused the hell out of me for like five minutes. Needs better wording.

Holy fucking shit!

Fucking domestic terrorists! :argh:

If the guy forget to take the number plate off, he is an idiot. [editline]03:56PM[/editline] [QUOTE=JDK721;21693534]According to CNN: Vehicle Identification Number found on potential car bomb vehicle[/QUOTE] Thanks to his stupidity, he made life easier for the cops. And cops should really know that times square, one of the busiest place in New York, is a potential target for terrorism

Reminds me of those 2+ incidents where an empty suitcase was planted in a parking lot, and some retarded civvies called in the bomb squad.

[QUOTE=JDK721;21693534]According to CNN: Vehicle Identification Number found on potential car bomb vehicle[/QUOTE] Heh, they actually got McVeigh from a VIN on the rear axle of the truck he blew up.

Every one can now make a bomb and go blow it up in a populated area

[QUOTE=wanksta11;21694140]Every one can now make a bomb and go blow it up in a populated area[/QUOTE] Obviously not; this fuckwad failed hard.

Two propane tanks, some fireworks, clocks, and a car battery. Yeah, real fucking pro there. Same shit, different day.

[QUOTE=Cpl. Combine;21695350]what?[/QUOTE] I'm sorry dear sir, Let me rephrase it for you. I mean it is easy for you to get/make explosive in America.

[QUOTE=Beetle179;21694037]Reminds me of those 2+ incidents where an empty suitcase was planted in a parking lot, and some retarded civvies called in the bomb squad.[/QUOTE] You don't fucking take chances when it comes to potential bombs. Suspicious suitcases are scary as shit.

[QUOTE=SL0WP0KE;21697069]You don't fucking take chances when it comes to potential bombs. Suspicious suitcases are scary as shit.[/QUOTE] Heh same thing happened. Some guy put a black bag on the train with cans and got caught. His response was to see people's reaction. Heard he had to do community service.

I heard just now that Taliban claimed it. Also, there was a report of an anonymous phone call to 911 saying that it was only a test. Don't know the source, my mom told me.
