Are dry ice bombs a thing now? Four dry ice bombs—two of which exploded—were found at LAX since Sunday, as investigators scrambled to figure out how they could have gotten in the airport in the first place. Dry ice bombs are literally a bottle with dry ice inside, but it’s deadly serious—and the suspects arrested could even be tried in federal court. A dry ice bomb exploded in the men’s room in a section accessible only to employees at the Tom Bradley International Terminal, police said. Two similar devices were found in the area. The three devices were found just one day after another dry ice bomb exploded in a men’s room Sunday night. ----- For the complete story: www.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2013/10/15/4-dry-ice-bombs-found-at-lax.html |

This is really disturbing...I can remember when any type of bomb threat at an airport was like a national emergency. I think people's lackadaisical attitudes towards the Boston Marathon bombing and this event shows a certain national....well, illness. I remember back in the day when the 9-11 incident caused a national scare in people and an outcry for vengeance against the perpetrators. These days there are just some newspaper articles and a kind of weird sigh amoung the American people. No outcry that I can see in the media and stuff (and I track the news pretty well). Its surreal is my point.
Makes me wonder exactly what is going on in America really. idk what to say, I guess its a different country now. Maybe we are braver, maybe less in touch with the immediacy of our national problems. In all, its troublesome to say the least. Like what is this "default" we keep hearing about? Back in the day, I remember the recession. Is there a recession going on, or is it a depression? I mean what does "default" really mean? To me it means that the USA is going into a similar situation to Greece with the loss of value of the Drachma. Do we need the UN here? I mean I'm being a bit facisious here BUUUTTTTT...
idk!
