    Rest assured very few people here care what you have a problem with. If it doesn’t align with your exact thinking you have a problem. Same bs day after day. I can’t understand for the life of my why the Buffalo continues to let you litter this place with garbage over and over. How many of your threads have been buffaloed over the past 6 months? Garbage.

    I was curious about the chemistry and technology used, but only heard "commonly available household materials". 

    However, it was reported that something called the internet exists where one can learn everything from how to macrame infant socks to construct a hydrogen bomb.

    No secrets on how he got caught.  I don't think it was a high resolution satellite, but rather regular old investigative forensics, video, internet logs, phone tap, etc.   Anyone that watches crime shows on TEE-VEE already knows the game.
    I just assume that these days that everybody has a copy of the now almost 50 year old "Anarchists Cookbook" on their phone.

    Let’s break this down. 

    The first complaint about the media was that this story didn’t get enough coverage. 
    The 2nd complaint about the media was that they spilled the beans in how to make a bomb. 
    The 3rd complaint about the media (after it was pointed out that the police actually spilled the beans) was that they could have been more responsible. 

    The only conclusion being that they must protect the public from the reckless police. Censorship. 

    It probably would have been better if the original complainant would have said “yep, bad call on my part”. 

    Unfortunately one segment of our society finds it too convenient to blame all of our social ills on the MSM.

    If you get your news from TV networks you are stuck somewhere between uninformed and misinformed.

    I start with Reuters. They seem to be the most apolitical of all the news sources. I will usually end up at The Guardian for international news. You guys think our media ignores stories, go to the guardian.com and you will invariably say, what? I had no idea. The international stories that we aren’t aware of is mind boggling.

    I quit watching the networks shortly after Obama was elected. I found that every story was terribly slanted. Either for or against him, but they all conveniently left out details that didn’t fit the narrative. Prior to that I would watch 2-3 hrs of news shows a night.

    Any site that Facebook, Twitter, or Google "shadow bans" or downranks--or CNN calls "fake news"--is probably a reliable and accurate source for non-biased news.  Hahaha

    Yeah, I don’t rely on the networks and really don’t see any source as accurate and without bias.  Some better than others but the only thing I know for sure is I can’t tell, so I take it all with a huge grain of salt (or huge salt grinder if you’re one of those).  Directionally accurate is about all you can count on and all you should be taking from what someone else is being paid to tell you.
    Love you bro!

     I don't know who sherry james is but I do know that Conway had many owners. That handle was passed around like a porn star at a Donald Trump bungalow.

    At one time I was one of the Conway Conrad’s. I forgot the log in info unfortunately  :s
