Same thing as at UT Austin. Multiple bomb threads with a 90-minute warning. Same time, too.

(19,458 posts)At least one was called in by a former acquaintance who is a hard core right winger, who is an activist Christian type... I have no doubt that it's probably him or someone like him, doing this.
Remember, they WANT to create the notion that the President isn't keeping us safe. Bomb scare phone calls, are almost always just that. A stupid ass with a phone.

As to someone making prank calls... I wish him well, in his new industrial decor apartment, with his new lover...

Could be a copycat or could be coordinated. I do not know.

(19,458 posts)Just like the stupid Walmart bomb scares. In the case of the UT bomb scare, has anyone known of AQ to actually CALL the target ahead of time? And the "heavy middle eastern accent."
I call bullshit on the bomb scares today. I think it's someone trying to inflame the situation with that stupid film, and make the President look weak.
At least one of the Walmart bomb scares was called in by a former acquaintance who is a HARD CORE right wing activist Christian. Same mentality.
