Spanish anarchists send Catholics explosive packages containing vibrators

An anarchist group in Spain has been sending bombs to prominent Roman Catholics, hiding the explosives inside packages containing vibrators.

At least two such mini-bombs have been sent by a group that calls itself the Anticlerical Pro Sex Toys Group, according to Spain's state-owned EFE news agency. One device exploded at a postal sorting office, slightly injuring the woman who was handling the package.

"Please accept our apologies," the group said in an email apparently sent to an anarchist website at the beginning of last month. "Next time we won't fail."

The group targeted the Roman Catholic archbishop of Pamplona, Francisco Pérez, and the headteacher of a private school belonging to the ultra-conservative Legionnaires of Christ movement in Madrid.

Really? Sending a bomb THIS WEEK of all times? Really?

1. It's never a good time to mail bombs. /nt

2. Sending vibrators is funny, but adding the bombs is fucked up, in my opinion.

I wonder what they were trying to accomplish by hurting people.

3. +1

I wish they just stayed with the funny and harmless.

5. The vibrators themselves would have been much more explosive, IMO. n/t

4. Had to get in on the fun. What do they have against women who work at the post office?

They call this an apology?

'Next time we won't fail.'

What a bunch of sick goons.

6. Not sex positive. Idiots. nt

7. Flying penises are funny. Exploding vibrators are not. n/t

8. It will be interesting to see if this was REALLY an "anarchist" group.

Spanish anarchists generally had a much more honorable history than do to things like this.

I'd be wondering if this was a put-up job by somebody wanting to provoke a neo-Fascist uprising.

That, and something about this feels much more like an extreme right-wing notion of "comedy".

Yes, my child?
Stick this up your ass.
