Considering the fire-power they had it would have been a smarter idea to just carry out some armed robberies or home invasions with them. [Morgan Freeman voice: Do NOT carry out armed robberies of home invasions with guns people]. If you stole a truck and hit about 4 service-stations or diners in an hour or so, you'd get more cash and could ditch the stolen vehicle in the woods easy. [Again, see earlier advice]. Could get killed doing it too. So there's that.

It's entirely on brand for Pierce County in Washington, I assure you.

Perhaps they could use the cell phone data from January 5, 2021 to identify MT…er…the unknown bomb planter.

Apparently, some of the specialized equipment used in those places aren't just sitting on a shelf in a warehouse and have to be built.

One can tell the quality of a criminal by seeing if they offer up their guilt to the cops AND admitting to another crime, a charge of burglary.

I swear, Washington lags behind only Louisiana for weird spelling. Examples:

- Thibodaux is a place (and where I went to college), whereas Thibodeaux is a family name- Natchitoches is a places as well, pronounced “NACK-uh-dish”- Tchoupitoulas is actually a street in New Orleans, but every GPS I’ve seen and heard completely omits saying it in favor of “turn left at the next street”

Of course, those are just examples. We’ve got loads more, especially from around and south of Interstate 10.
