It was only a matter of time before the crazies came out of the wood works. With the most diverse Presidential election in full swing, I’m surprised we haven’t seen a man with a pipe bomb strapped to his chest sooner.
A man claiming to have a bomb walked into a Hillary Rodham Clinton campaign office Friday and initially took at least four hostages, police and witnesses said. Three were released.
Clinton was not in the state at the time.
The man entered the office around 1 p.m., ordered people onto the floor and then let a mother and her baby leave, said State Police Maj. Michael Hambrook. The two hostages he kept were volunteers, said Bill Shaheen, a top state campaign official.
About two hours later, a woman in a green sweater was led away from the building by a SWAT team member. Authorities, some carrying shields and guns, had the building surrounded, and laid wiring up to the building’s entrance before the woman was released.
In this bag of Presidential candidate jokers, we’ve got the first (serious) female candidate, the first black candidate (who was raised Muslim but converted to Christianity), a Mormon, an ex- Vietnam Prisoner of War, an eccentric ex-New York City mayor (has anyone verified mob ties yet), and the list goes on.
Is anyone really surprised someone went ape shit? Personally, I’m surprised it didn’t happen sooner.
