If you want to mail a bomb, anthrax or whatever to someone you want to kill, you have to realize that the first 2 or 3 people that handle the package or envelope in any large organization are NOT the recipient (not including the delivery people). I have had that responsibility on my staff for many years. That is why they have protocol for that sort of thing in these organizations. You are just as likely to kill or maim someone that agrees with you politically (somewhat) as you are to do the same to your target. It is a high degree of failure/low degree of success operation.
Unless you just want to harm someone and are really just wanting to strike out it just is a bad strategy. You may blow up a comrade.

Secondly, The call out rate has gone threw the roof. Carriers are scared.
BTW,understand all Mail is photographed as it passes through the system. So when these packages started to show up,that caught my eye immediately.

(52 posts)(before they caught the guy) I was wondering if he worked at the, extremely large, mail center. Where he could smuggle the packages in under his shirt and just drop them on a conveyor belt, somewhere along the line.
And, I would expect that any intentional mail-bomb would be made to explode upon opening.
I'm sure that it's no secret that anyone, of any political importance, has their mail meticulously screened.
He's a psycho, that knew he would be caught, and did it for the attention.
