Something seems to happen during SXSW and this year it was suspicious package bombings. Now there has been an explosion inside a FedEx Ground facility in Schertz, Texas. Please, everyone out there, be careful and aware of your surroundings.

I honestly wish the "Media" wouldn't get so hyped up about these unfortunate tragedies. Now the rest of the kooks out there will start the "copycat" syndrome.?ÿ

I wish the "media" wouldn't get hyped about lots of things yet here we are.

I also wish people weren't so hateful, again, here we are.

To paraphrase LTC Jeff Cooper, of Gunsite Academy and Guns and Ammo fame, it is important that we insist that evil acts be distinguished from unfortunate events: the former are atrocities; the latter, tragedies.

And now I wonder if I need to take a break from GPSonBM until this cools down.?ÿ A strange apparatus with a homemade wooden battery box can look quite suspicious to the uninformed, even sitting unattended in a road ROW and not at a building.

No sheet!

A few years back the University of Utah Security (or the Salt Lake Police) blew up a backpack with wires coming out of it up at the U of U.

Turned out to be a static GPS setup!

Suspect is dead. Not known if he was working alone or if there are maybe other devices still out there.
