He was in Dayton's 2 nights ago.I had no idea we were sitting across from such a dangerous individual.
Only here would a home grown bomb maker be arrested in a camo bathrobe. LOL.
What remains to be seen is if his landlord, a former SU professor, will kick him out of his rental house. Explosive devices on the property probably violates the lease.
Big brother and all those cameras and cell phone pings watching every move we make
You might be a redneck if.......................
He will be on no bond for the next 7 months waiting for court dates and mental evaluations. Then upon conviction another mental evaluation before sentencing add additional 2 month. Then doc for 18 months. However you can call his landlord?
"...Explosive devices on the property probably violates the lease."
I have had many rental leases from college age through adulthood. None have had a clause prohibiting explosive devices. I mean, who would have thought of such a thing back then?
Dont jump to conclusions on this
Two sides to every story....
we know the media lies and presents false flags, and fake news
sounds to me...he was being watched potentially due to rants on social media
the left is very scared of the right...

12:06 PM there is a criminal clause. cops show up and you are arrested you get evicted. normal here in the bury for all the drug dealers.
