Two propane trucks stolen over weekend in my town.

Post by Anarchist Bunny »

Article here

Been on the news a lot today, basicly what it says is that two propane trucks were noticed to have been missing over the holiday weekend, alone with 02, CO2 and N2 canisters from an ambulance supply store. Since Mexico uses a lot of propane for power it could be that this is a theft for profit instead of terroism, but propane trucks is a method liked by terrorist. In 1996 one of these 12 wheeled propane trucks was used to bring down a 6 store building. Although there realy isn't anything of real significance to blow up in San Antonio for terrorism purposes, they could be driving them to a near by city like Austin, Dallas, or Houstin.

Maybe Mexico wants payback for the Alamo?

Well it seems like a theft to me rather than terrorism.
I have to tell you something everything I wrote above is a lie.

If they use propane to blow up the Alamo, Hank Hill will kill himself. :P

Really unless they get it during a large event, blowing the Alamo or the Tower is going to get less then 100 people. Really, there would be some cheering if the Dome got blown up(if it was empty at the time), and accually gettiing in a position to hurt a lot of people in Sea World or Six Flags is going to pretty much impossible.
