Men could face terrorism-related and weapons charges after officials say explosive ‘had been lit but failed to function’

Authorities in Utah say two men have been arrested on suspicion of placing an incendiary device under a news media vehicle in Salt Lake City. The bomb didn’t go off.

Police and fire department bomb squads responded on Friday when a suspicious device was found under the vehicle parked near an occupied building.

Investigators determined the bomb “had been lit but failed to function as designed”, according to court records cited by CBS affiliate KUTV.

Wait, Jason Segal was in SLC Punk? I've only seen it once, way back in highschool and I must not have known who he was back then. Huh.

He's all straight-laced, but the most punk of them all.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ah, It's kind of coming back to me. I guess I just didn't know who he was at the time. How does the movie hold up, worth a rewatch in 2025?

[–] GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 hours ago

I'd say so. It's a pretty good movie. Haven't seen it in a bit myself.

American stochastic terrorism

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 day ago

Yep, we're starting to see the results of 40+ years of very dark, very violent propaganda

[–] Ironfist79@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago

Just the usual right wing terrorism.

Mormonism and narcissism. I say this as a former Mormon from Utah. They are not as peaceful as they seem.

[–] cyberwitch@reddthat.com 8 points 1 day ago

High profile Mormon crime in the past 10 years alone is pretty staggering

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Whole show called American Primeval about the Mormons. Great miniseries.

Magic underwear went on sale, they are channeling the strength of the morman faith!

They are one of the most conservative States, they usually rack up near 70% Republican and Libertarians are not an insignificant number of the rest. Even though they claimed to hate the president.
