Just before lunch my boss at the time walked out of his office and told me that some crazy person blown up the Murrah blog in OKC and laughed about it. I shoved him on his ass and quit.

@SteelHands Wow good for you. Why was he so sadistic about it?
SteelHands · 61-69, M
@cherokeepatti He's a dangerous guy.

@SteelHands Sound like pure evil hell-bent on destruction.
SteelHands · 61-69, M
@cherokeepatti Not really. More of a merc.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@SteelHands really?

@cherokeepatti I don’t believe the official story of why in regard to the Murrah bombing. I have read theories that Whitewater incident in reference to Hillary Clinton was about to go down and they did it to stop the speculation, as a diversion. There were people who worked for the ATF that were told to leave the office that day, and they had explosives in the office. Some other things too....
SteelHands · 61-69, M
@cherokeepatti Yup. Sociopath.

@SteelHands McVeigh had been a Green Beret and his lawyer claimed at first that he had been microchipped while in the military and that’s why they knew where to arrest him (near Perry, Oklahoma) after he fled the scene. Believe it was a set-up and not pure revenge for Waco. The lawyer said in a news interview shown locally here that and other things would come out in the trial but he dummied up during the trial....believe that he got threatened.

@cherokeepatti It could not have been done without help from higher up since anyone handling those dangerous things being used there wouldn't have kept their mouth shut long enough to have it go off as they planned.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@SteelHands I believe that too. Have never bought the official story.
SteelHands · 61-69, M
@cherokeepatti Doesn't seem right, you know, a Green Beret. Does it?
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@SteelHands I know. Maybe they MK-ultra’d him at some point.

@SteelHands It was what we called farmers dynamite. I knew a farmer that used the same stuff to move a large bolder from his land. Unfortunately it was too close to his barn and the explosion was so big it knocked the barn down. It is readily available and easily made. Since the OK bombing not everyone can buy fertilizer unless you are a farmer. People here in Canada have been arrested for trying to buy it without having a legitimate agricultural use for it.

@hippyjoe1955 a lot of the farmers are using liquid fertilizer now and that’s what the meth makers would steal to make meth.
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@cherokeepatti Yeah and it is extremely dangerous stuff. Special training to even use it.
SteelHands · 61-69, M
@cherokeepatti Don't go down that rabbit hole.
