The FBI said the Swiss Army-brand backpack was found about 9:25 a.m. PST on Monday on a bench at the northeast corner of North Washington Street and West Main Avenue in downtown Spokane...A bomb disposal unit was called in and neutralized the device with a robot.

Seriously?
When the banksters want something, our policymakers move with the speed of Mercury and the determination of Ares. It’s only when the rest of us need something that there is paralysis.

How free are we today with the dominance of globalist capital and militarized security apparatus?

Thank God they found it and nobody was injured!

This is the first time I've heard of someone building an explosive device along the lines of what the Palestinians make with the shrapnel inside. I knew it was just a matter of time before someone started doing that. Domestic terrorism, great, just what we need.
