With the arrest of Cesar Sayoc in the case of the mail bombs delivered to vocal critics of President Donal Trump, I can’t help but cast a cynical eye on the whole affair.
Firstly, I unequivocally condemn any violence. We can disagree about anything and everything but if you have to resort to violence, you deserve to have the full weight of the law brought down upon you.
Secondly, I can’t help but notice the timing of this incident, with the mid-term elections almost upon us. Why would any Republican of Republican Party supporter engage in such a reprehensible, yet incompetent, terrorist act? How could they possibly hope to gain anything from it?
I’m absolutely glad that none of the bombs detonated, but the playout of this affair would rival the comedic incompetence of a Wile E. Coyote cartoon.
Thirdly, the suspect Cesar Sayoc could not have been any more blatantly conspicuous driving around in a van plastered with Trump support stickers, stickers saying CNN sucks, and stickers with photos of prominent Trump critics encircled by the image from a rifle scope. When I first saw a picture of the van, my initial reaction was, “Seriously?!”
Unabomber Ted Kaczynski spent 17 years hiding from the FBI and this knucklehead is driving around in a flashing neon billboard, shouting louder than an air raid siren, “Hey everyone, I’m the guy sending the pipe-bombs to everyone.”
My conclusion in this whole mess is that it is one of two things:
- It’s a false-flag, with both the Democratic and Republican as the chief suspects (remember the Republican Party refused to officially endorse Trump as their candidate, ergo they are not necessarily his ally), and Sayoc is simply a patsy or,
- The more likely scenario is that this man is seriously mentally-ill, which ironically is something the left-wing are quick to promote when it’s an ISIS-inspired terrorist attack.
So left-wing media, which one is it?
