Occupy Turns to Terrorism: Cleveland Bridge Bombers
Take a good look at the Occupy movement. Angry at the lack of jobs, their wealthy parents, and the lack of a good communist movement, the Occupy Cleveland group turned to terrorism to attempt to gain visibility for their still-as-yet undefined cause- they bought fake C4 explosives in an attempt to blow up a bridge and murder scores of Americans.
From CNN here:
A mohawk-wearing anarchist nicknamed “Cyco” was among five men arrested after conspiring to blow up a bridge about 15 miles south of Cleveland.
Douglas L. Wright, 26, joined alleged co-conspirators Brandon L. Baxter, 20, a.k.a. “Skabby,” and Anthony Hayne, 37, a.k.a. “Tony” and “Billy,” in a plot homed in on the Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge, which spans the Cuyahoga Valley National Park and carries a four-lane highway.
The men were arrested Monday evening in an FBI sting. The men have been charged with conspiracy and attempted use of explosive materials to damage physical property affecting interstate commerce.
Connor C. Stevens, 20, and Joshua S. Stafford, 23, also were arrested, though their charges remain pending.
Three of the men are self-proclaimed anarchists who had considered “a series of evolving plots over several months.”
They conspired to acquire plastic explosives (C-4) and build two bombs, affixing them to the bridge’s support columns to be remotely detonated on Monday. Wright, Baxter and a man referred to as C.S. agreed to pay $900 for the devices,.
Wright allegedly was pursuing “The Anarchist Cookbook,” which describes the construction and use of explosives. “We can make smoke bombs, we can make plastic explosives. … It teaches you how to pick locks. It does everything,” he is alleged to have said.
And take a look at Baxter, who in the photo below looks like a dolled-up homosexual. Aren’t anarchists cute with their limp wrists and drums?
This sounds exactly like the Byron Sonne case, only these guys were complete idiots. Sonne also downloaded and consulted the Anarchist’s Cookbook, as well as built his own explosive chemicals using electrolysis in his basement. That trial should be resolved in the coming weeks.
