The man was identified after police reviewed surveillance footage. He was booked into the Outagamie County Jail on Tuesday evening on a probation violation. No charges have yet been referred to prosecutors.

“The focus today is to determine what else we can discover that might link this person to the situation,” Grand Chute Police Chief Greg Peterson said.

1. "The man..." Surprise, surprise. Hope they decide to charge in

federal court.

[LaydeeBug]

2. Where is his *name*?

I notice they haven't identified him

[Politicalboi]

3. It was probably some

Muzzlin name they couldn't spell. You know like Davis, Smith, or Clark.

[wordpix]

10. he is identified but not charged, according to article

[frogmarch]

4. Which would get the creep the most time

behind bars (assuming he's convicted), the case being tried in county court - or in federal court?

[arcane1]

5. He'll be charged with terrorism, right? Right?

Why is this being handled by local police, and not DHS? Where is the threshold differentiating a criminal bomb from a terrorist bomb?

[Fumesucker]

6. Somewhere north of taupe I would think..

[harmonicon]

7. painful, but well stated. nt.

[Volaris]

18. There IS no threshold, that's the point that we've been trying to make around here

for for more than 10 years, and why you try and destroy terrorists with the Dept. of Justice, instead of the United States FEDERAL FUCKING ARMY. But THAT, apparently, is a losing argument when so many of our fellow Citizens are just so....so....CONSERVATIVE? I guess, is the word I'm looking for? Whatever, this guy bombed an women's HEALTH center. For it, he might be prosecuted, but in the minds of his "compatriots" he will be a HERO. With their mouths, though, he will just be "some lone nut". Too bad, too, 'cause for them to actually come out and SAY what they think would make destroying their political goals SO much easier....but they know that too, I guess.

8. I am quite certain that they will find

he was a lone actor, with no support, acting completely on his lonesome, probably never even chatted on the internet with another pro-lifer or was offered encouragement, resources, or other collusion by such upstanding citizens, and shame on anyone who might even dare to quietly think otherwise.

[CTyankee]

11. yeah, right! Sheet, who believes this sh*t? REALLY?

I don't have enough breath in my body for this...

[savalez]

15. Yep. Totally uninfluenced. Acting alone, and all that stuff.

[wordpix]

9. if this guy is guilty, can we please prosecute to the full extent of the law. He's a terrorist

If the bomb had gone off and people were inside, he would be guilty of murder.

12. "Lengthy criminal history"

The 50-year-old man Brillion man was jailed early Tuesday for violating his probation, though police haven’t yet sought charges stemming from placement of the explosive and subsequent fire at the clinic. The man has a lengthy criminal history that includes cocaine possession and delivery, resisting or obstructing police, bail jumping and disorderly conduct.

13. Possibility he might have been radicalized in prison?

The fundies have enough prison/ex-con ministries out there...

[idwiyo]

14. K&R

[TheMightyFavog]

16. Why the fuck would a coke dealer bomb a Planned Parenthood clinic?

Radicalized in prison?

Patsy?

Set up?

Cops have the wrong guy?

[Mopar151]

17. Loose nut, dumb-ass loser

Wound up by a "friend" - "set up" is closest of the options. Serious coke dealer would have smarts enough to not get jammed up on an "assaulting an officer" beef. And note the crash near another clinic - fool has issues with keepin' his shit together.

Does not make him less of a terrorist, though - "shoe bomber" Richard Reed was dumb as a stump.
