A 46-year-old man is facing federal charges accusing him of leaving a jar filled with explosives at a North Carolina airport as part of a war he pledged to fight on U.S. soil.

Michael Christopher Estes was arrested October 7 and charged with attempted malicious use of explosive materials and unlawful possession of explosive materials in an airport, according to a criminal complaint unsealed Tuesday.

The improvised explosive device, or IED, was found inside a jar at the Asheville Regional Airport about 7 a.m. on October 6, the FBI said in the complaint. Bomb technicians from the Asheville Police Department rendered the device safe. The baggage claim and lobby area of the airport were evacuated and shut down for about 2 hours. No one was injured.

      truly, the variety of anonymous cowards help improve the site.

      but when they argue amongst themselves as themselves, it detracts from the similarities between the established conservative base we have here. just throwing in SJW doesn't make you fit in. you have to make sense when you do that, too.

        Hmm, I'm still not happy about "SJW" as a term but I haven't found anything better. I use it myself to describe left-wing authoritarian followers, because LWA(f) isn't as recognizable as RWA(f).

        Though, SJWs often tend to blur the line between left and right-wing. They're definitely authoritarian followers, but many of the tactics they use are straight out of the right-wing authoritarian follower handbook.

        (I think we should also recognize that SJWs/LWAs/RWAs are all followers. I don't think it would be correct to describe somebody like Rush Limbaugh or Germaine Greer as one of those follower-types. Those are the right/left wing authoritarian leaders. See Altemeyer.)

    The Beatles sucked. They can take a good musical idea with so much rockin' potential, such as Revolution, and twist it into some hokey spongey over-compressed pigsty-romp that sounds like two obese people fucking each other with the bellies slapping and the bed breaking while both of them are passing gas.

    And don't even get me started on the "cats fucking" guitar solo.

    Seriously, I fucking hate the Beatles. Hearing John Lennon even speak makes me want to punch him and Ringo is one ugly motherfucker.
