DOJ Finally Makes a Single Arrest In the Pregnancy Counselling Center Firebombings Case

NPR minimizes his crime as much as possible, and tries to make light of the whole matter.

How a half-eaten burrito led to charges in the firebombing of an anti-abortion office

Federal authorities say they've charged a suspect in connection with the firebombing of an anti-abortion lobbying group's office in Wisconsin -- nearly a year later, and with the help of a half-eaten burrito.

The Department of Justice announced on Tuesday that it had arrested Madison, Wis., resident Hridindu Sankar Roychowdhury, 29, at an airport in Boston. He had a one-way ticket to Guatemala, the agency said.

He has been charged with one count of attempting to cause damage by means of fire or an explosive, court documents show.

"According to the complaint, Mr. Roychowdhury used an incendiary device in violation of federal law in connection with his efforts to terrorize and intimidate a private organization," Matthew Olsen, assistant attorney general of the DOJ's National Security Division, said in a statement.

No actual terrorism charges, though.

No "insurrection" charges.

No even any "parading" charges.

If convicted, Roychowdhury would face a mandatory minimum penalty of five years and a maximum of up to 20 years in prison.

"Violence is never an acceptable way for anyone to express their views or their disagreement," Robert Wells, assistant director of the FBI's Counterterrorism Division, said in a statement. "Today's arrest demonstrates the FBI's commitment to vigorously pursue those responsible for this dangerous attack and others across the country, and to hold them accountable for their criminal actions."

Weird how there's so much terrorism in this case but no charges of actual terrorism.

Despite the terroristic threat spraypainted on the building:

ifabortionsarentsafe.jpg

...

WFA said in a statement after the attack that the office had been empty and no one had been injured.


They went on to accuse liberals of hypocrisy and blamed Democratic leaders like Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers for suggesting "that violence is an acceptable tactic to employ."


Wisconsin officials on both sides of the aisle, including Evers, condemned the attack, as did the White House.
...

The next part of the story involves a lot of forensics and a bit of fast food.

Ah, so humorous.

The terrorist left a DNA sample behind at the scene of the firebombing, but it could not be identified, apart from being male. Or at least his DNA was Assigned Male at Collection (AMAC).

That's a joke. They're not doing that... yet.

In January, a "protester" spraypainted the terroristic threat "We will get revenge" in cursive at the state capitol to protest the shooting of an antifa shooter at that Atlanta cop training center construction site. The threat looked like the threat painted on the wall of the family counseling center.

They identified the threat-maker as owning a Toyota Tacoma pickup truck, I guess maybe by following him through surveillance footage back to his vehicle.

On March 1, an observer spotted the truck, and saw the terrorist drop a fast food bag out of his car. Littering, I think. The bag contained a half-eaten burrito. They swabbed that for DNA and found it matched the DNA sample Assigned Male at Collection from the pregnancy counseling center.

Note that they could have just arrested him based on the match of the spraypainted handwriting, and then compelled a DNA sample. But you wouldn't want to infringe on the Free Speech Rights of an antifa terrorist! Their free speech rights are important!

Instead, they left him alone and just got lucky with finding the half-eaten meal.

56 What confuses me is targeting family counseling centers. Hear me out: if you believe in CHOICE, as you keep claiming, if you want people to have the CHOICE to CHOOSE abortion, that necessarily includes the right to choose not to get an abortion. Or its no choice.

So these centers exist to give women other options and support for those options. All part of choice, right? I mean these centers are necessarily opposed to abortion, but they aren't activist centers driving protests, they aren't lobbying, they're just there to help pregnant women out.

So... why target them? They didn't pass any laws. They didn't make any court decisions. They aren't enforcing any laws. They aren't setting up riots. Why target pregnancy centers? I mean you're all about women and choice, right?

There's a small grocery chain in the area that had a signed that said, "Everything we keep out of our food will help you live longer."

The idea they wanted to put across is that by keeping out insecticides and such, their food is healthier.

The way the sentence actually said it, though, it's the stuff that they keep out of the food that will help you live longer, so they're denying you that extra life.

I remember seeing a documentary many moons ago, that focused on the "science" of hitting.

One of the tricks of the trade for the batter, if he missed a pitch, was to step out of the box for a minimum of 15 seconds before taking the next pitch.

Statistically, data showed that a batter who didn't re-set himself put in himself in a less advantageous position in terms of getting on base...by a significant percentage.

Thus all the stepping out of the box on each pitch.

That shit adds up over a game...

MLB should have a policy of speeding up the game, and umps should start calling automatic balls if the pitcher lags, or strikes if the batter dicks around.
Do that a few times, and shit gets adjusted really fast.
But, that involves some spine for the umps, who are sensitive little prissy boys.

One guy I know postulated that there should be two people, one with a top view of the plate, and another with a side view. Each have 'Jeopardy' buttons. The first clicks if the ball is over the plate, the other clicks if the ball is above the knees/below the armpits ( or waist, or whatever). If both are true, STRIKE.

Well if you want to dispute that, fine but baseball had a resurgence after the dumb strike due to the increase in home runs. The various home run chases brought baseball into a mainstream conversation it had largely been excised from.

Home runs mean money for batters. Plus they strike out plenty now (it just takes longer) which is $$$ for pitchers. So that's the game. Lots of strikeouts and lots of home runs. Economically driven just like the Umpires Union who will never allow robot balls and strikes.

I was in an Irish pub in Rome with some friends (The Scholar's Lounge, look it up) and one of the girls in the group wanted to watch the end of a basketball game, so the bartender (an Italian) put it on. There was only five minutes left in the game, she assured him.

20 minutes later, it was still going with more than a minute left in game time. The Italian bartender was confused.

233 Pro aborts have a lot of evil arguments, so this one doesn't even stand out as one of them, but it still bothers me.

Pro aborts will argue that abortion should be a decision made solely between a woman and her doctor.

That's complete bullshit for at least a couple of reasons.

1. No pregnant woman is going to "her doctor" for an abortion. She'll go to a pregnancy termination center and talk to a pregnancy termination counselor who will refer the woman to an abortionist. None of those people is "her doctor." If she has a doctor, it's a general practitioner who is likely not consulted at all in this process.

2. Those people the woman is talking to will either leave the decision up to the woman or will advise abortion. If the woman is wavering in the decision (most likely), the abortion specialists will almost certainly NOT advise the woman to wait and think about it or possibly consider adoption.

We're not talking about a woman consulting with her long time GP as implied by the phrase, "a woman and her doctor." Not at all.

237 What confuses me is targeting family counseling centers. Hear me out: if you believe in CHOICE, as you keep claiming, if you want people to have the CHOICE to CHOOSE abortion, that necessarily includes the right to choose not to get an abortion. Or its no choice.

So these centers exist to give women other options and support for those options. All part of choice, right? I mean these centers are necessarily opposed to abortion, but they aren't activist centers driving protests, they aren't lobbying, they're just there to help pregnant women out.

So... why target them? They didn't pass any laws. They didn't make any court decisions. They aren't enforcing any laws. They aren't setting up riots. Why target pregnancy centers? I mean you're all about women and choice, right?

255 Japanese baseball to me is far more interesting, because complete game. Not just power hitting.

Minor/college versions of most sports far more entertaining, because pros have become such monstrous perfect athletes that .... the actual watchability of the game suffers. Hockey hardest hit. Speaking of which, I'm now counting how long at AHL games before I see a body check away from the boards/not from behind/not some lame "finishing" thing, usually along the boards. It's been several games so far.

Then you're rural. This isn't for rural areas, it's for urban areas. First they convert the cities into prisons, then they force the people in the countryside into the city. First, this is done through deliberate decay - power lines will go down and not be fixed, roads won't be repaired, chain stores will close, etc. For the recalcitrant holdouts, they will try to use force but there won't be many because rural living will become essentially premodern.

This is essentially what "Agenda 21" is all about.

287 He has been charged with one count of attempting to cause damage by means of fire or an explosive, court documents show.

No actual terrorism charges, though.
No "insurrection" charges.
No even any "parading" charges.


It's normal to start with one charge ("holding charge") and then add the other charges later. If you charge early you run into speedy trial issues if you are running late with forensics. Also, with arresting him at the airport as he was leaving, this was probably the only charge that would stick at that moment

Note that they could have just arrested him based on the match of the spraypainted handwriting, and then compelled a DNA sample

Handwriting analysis has been under criticism lately, and handwriting analysis of spraypaint has to be less accurate. I doubt they could get an arrest warrant based on that.

Instead, they left him alone and just got lucky with finding the half-eaten meal.
Or they had him under surveilance and waited for him to voluntarily give him a DNA sample by littering.

304 One of the tricks of the trade for the batter, if he missed a pitch, was to step out of the box for a minimum of 15 seconds before taking the next pitch.

Statistically, data showed that a batter who didn't re-set himself put in himself in a less advantageous position in terms of getting on base...by a significant percentage.

Thus all the stepping out of the box on each pitch.

That shit adds up over a game...
Posted by: browndog Official Mascot of Team Gizzard at March 30, 2023 02:22 PM (CCSxw)

I remember Bill James (the first new statistics guy) noticing that the on base percentage of a batter if a pickoff move to first was in the same at bat was noticably lower. Therefore he (jokingly) suggested all pitchers make a pickoff throw for every batter even if nobody was on base.

He also noted that pitchers that took a long time between pitches had lower had more errors behind them, presumably the fielders got inattentive.

But a major reason these days is with the massive use of strikeout pitchers and everyone able to hit a homer in smaller stadiums, nobody is just trying to fool the batter and get easy grounders and fly balls.

319 MLB's motivation to shorten the game is to make more room for commercials. Count on it.

That is a major part, but they are losing popularity and the number one complaint is length of game. I mean, football games last as long but they pad it out with loud music and graphics and shouting so it feels exciting or at least not as dull.

But they have made like 18 rules that make the game longer, such as instant replay challenges, so its hard to take their commitment to this very seriously.

If they honestly, seriously wanted to make baseball more popular, they'd spend money on encouraging kids to play baseball, providing supplies, fixing up old run down baseball diamonds now ignored for soccer, and push minor leagues.

Instead they cut their spending on kids baseball, killed the minor league system, and keep making noxious rule changes that chase away the dwindling fans they have.

Yeah, the problem with it - from the standpoint of the planners - is that going off-grid is more possible than ever thanks to solar. It ain't perfect and your current lifestyle is probably *not* sustainable on solar alone, but you *can* make a go of it if you want to (or need to).

Based on my sample size of one it seems that Japanese baseball is a participation sport if you are in the stands.

Since I don't speak Japanese I had no idea what I was yelling, but it was great fun.

349 But a major reason these days is with the massive use of strikeout pitchers and everyone able to hit a homer in smaller stadiums, nobody is just trying to fool the batter and get easy grounders and fly balls.

That's because MLB is only scouting really tall guys that throw the ball 100 MPH and have no other pitching skills. Then they give the guys 4-5 innings tops, and carry a 14-man pitching staff, gutting their bench depth and options beyond "OK go swing as hard as you can".

Nobody. Everything from transportation to agriculture will be largely autonomous, with large areas being maintained by relatively few people - and those people will be ruling-class-adjacent technicians.

405 Our nation was founded on Christian principles and that was reflected in our Constitution, Declaration and Bill of Rights. It underwrote the abolishment of slavery, provided a basis for our education system, helped establish the hospital system and cured the correction of many social ills.

We had Framers and Founders who were Christians and Deists. But they were also determined not to establish any official religion based on their experiences and those of their ancestors. However they purposely encoded basic Christian principle throughout our democratic republic because that ensured our continued existence.

Conversely these people have contributed zero to our society, save their delusion and militant obedience to destroy any good or worthwhile. That's the demonstrable truth, and that buffoons like Biden and his ilk mouth this type of divisive fallacy further deteriorates their legitimacy and reveals their true intent.

406 Baseball never was a huge TV friendly sport. People will watch hours of football in the fall and winter, unless it's pouring down rain nobody watches a full game of baseball on TV in the summer. It's great for radio, but nobody under fifty has a radio.

During lock down I mounted a big screen tv on the wall of my house (under a roofed but open patio) it streams cable and so I watched a lot of ball games outside for the last couple years. Hell, I'll sit out there under the roof when its raining. I'd just rather be outside. I mount it on the memorial day weekend and take it down and box it up when labor day is over.

Nah, I sort of puzzled out the rules. Think of a basketball game where you can only pass backwards, except you can tackle the ball holder and if you do you get the ball. At any time the runner can kick the ball forward, and if another team member catches it, then it stops, and then he (not a specialist) can kick a field goal for 6 or 1 points depending if it hits near the center or wider. And the refs have little flags for signalling good/no good.

Well setting aside the obvious opening for jokes

We are all called to be Christ like. There are people who are particularly good, virtuous, selfless, and therefore emulate Christ. Its what we are supposed to be like. So if you are saying someone is Christ like it is a high compliment. Like saying they are saintly. When applied to somebody like Blessed Solanus Casey, makes you think hmm, must have been a good guy. When applied to an NY cardinal or Pope Francis - its a bit cringe.
