The guy is a contra-jihadist, not unusual for a leftist like Free Thinker to believe the guy is a threat to his livelihood.
What I find odd about this is that the guy was supposedly ex-military, yet he didn't know that an M-80 is little more than a glorified flare.
A left wing terrorist blows up government buildings (not mosques) with real explosives (not big firecrackers) and 40 years later gets to be a Distinguished Professor of Education and friends with the President. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Ayers With Distinguished Professors of Education like that you know why you should keep your children out of public schools.
For the libturds M-80 contains 50 mg of flash powder inside which equals 500 J of energy A stick of dynamite contains about 2.1 MJ of energy. For the libturds that are too lazy to do the math....that means you need 4,200 m-80s to equal the explosive power of 1 stick of dynamite. *Bonus information* 1 stick of dynamite is generally used to move about 1 cubic yard of rock (about 1.1 tons) Of course, if the dynamite isnt buried in the rock(or building), it doesnt have as much power. A stick of dynamite has 1/8 the power at 10 feet than it does at 5 feet, so if this guy parked his car near the mosque and had 4,000 m-80s in his trunk, the only damage likely to to building would be from the metal trunk that blew off his car
