“Ball Bearings”: The Bombs at the Boston Marathon Terrorist Attack Contained Ball Bearings, and What That Means
The second bomb blast today at the Boston Marathon
Chaos in Boston this afternoon
By Nicholas Stix
Cong. Michael McCaul (R-TX), the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, just told Fox News’ Brett Baier that he had been informed that the bombs contained ball bearings. The significance of that is that ball bearings are routinely used in improvised explosive devices (IEDs), to increase their lethality.
Cong. McCaul: “Improvised explosive devices have touched all of our lives,” due to “the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.”
Better hope it's not a native born white person.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I know - the suspect is a Saudi national.
But it's a "developing story."
White liberals hope it is a white conservative, NRA, white nationalist type of guy. They would then be happier than a pig in slop and would run the story for months and beat that one drum for years.
ReplyDeleteFurther I have no sympathies for any white liberal hurt in the explosions, they are the reason this was allowed to happen. Thanks.
