Update: Now police are claiming that it wasn’t a package bomb, but rather an “incendiary device.” Amazingly, they have determined that this is in no way related to the other Austin related explosions. Sorry, I don’t buy that.
#UPDATE: There was no package explosion in the 9800 block of Brodie Ln. Items inside package was not a bomb, rather an incendiary device. At this time, we have no reason to believe this incident is related to previous package bombs. #Breaking #packagebombmurders

An explosion rocked a Goodwill store in Austin, Texas tonight. This is now the sixth bombing the occur between Austin and San Antonio. One person was hurt, but thankfully no one died from this latest bombing. You obviously have at minimum a serial bomber in Austin, possibly a terrorists network. So far there have been no manifestos, no letters taking credit and no motive revealed for these bombings. This is a lot like the Las Vegas shooting last October. Basically nothing is known of the Austin bomber or bombers, and their motive, like the Las Vegas shooter’s is still a big mystery to everyone. This is starting to resemble Chicago born terrorist Ted Kaczynski aka the Unibomber, only on steroids.

Don’t worry though, the media is busy interviewing washed up porn stars.
