Pipe Bomb Investigations
There is an on going investigation into the pipe bombs being sent to prominent people. Pipe bombs were addressed to prominent people in politics such as Joseph Biden Jr., former president Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton, Robert DeNiro and a few others (CLICK HERE).
The police are searching for the man who was at first suspected to have delivered them by hand, but later was believed to have mailed all 10 pipe bombs. Police from Florida, Los Angeles, Washington, and New York are working to find and stop him before he hurts someone. His motive was unclear, but they are operating under the assumption that he is targeting critics of President trump, as Robert DeNiro was known to speak out against him. In this age hate is more present than ever with the political climate being very hostile. People are on polar opposite sides when it comes to politics which often leads to aggression. In this case the agression has reached a deadly level, causing a person to send pipe bombs to those who have spoken openly, as is there right, about their views which oppose Trumps’. We need to work as a country to prevent political aggression from causing acts of terror within our community. But how did the current political climate become as hostile as it is now, and How can we as a country work to resolve the hostility between political parties? How can we create preventative measures to stop people before they commit acts of terror?

Nice post, Kira. This is a big story right now. How we can preemptively stop acts of terror is a question we're always wrestling with as a country. The FBI did a great job capturing this man and we're lucky none were hurt.
