I hope it was worth it to the people who set this bomb.

Very strange story. Hard to imagine why anyone bombs a bank in Woodburn. I suppose it will turn out to be a personal gripe - someone got turned down for a loan or a date or something.

Also hard to imagine why the bomb squad carried the bomb into the bank.

Yeah the Police are completely negligent here, and I believe it was the Police Chief himself who did it. Whoever decided to do that should be in jail for manslaughter as it wasn't the bomb that killed them, but the negligence that did.

Dude -- c'mon -- bringing the bomb in to the bank was probably poor judgment (I have no idea why they did that), but to say that the bomb didn't kill them is stupid.

I was thinking maybe this resulted from a foreclosure or something.

Bombs don't kill people.

Bad people, and stupid people, kill people.

When they say foreclosures are exploding across the country, they don't mean it literally. I think it probably was a bomb.

Ok -- so you just want to absolve the bomber of murder charges because you think the police were negligent? That is what Drink Your Milkshake seemed to be insinuating -- that it wasn't the bomb that killed these men but the actions of police. That's ridiculous to not put the blame on the persons who made and placed the bomb.

If the police were negligent (I don't know if they were), then the blame falls on both. More to the people who set the bomb, of course.

Absolve? Where do you get that?

OT - Maybe while the FBI is there in Woodburn they can look into the Mexican gangs and Russian Mafia that runs that little burg.

Maris, this part here. I was just trying to explain what I meant by my post. Sorry to lump you in with this part above.
