Where did you hear that there were bombs?

edit: I see in a sibling thread that you have changed your goalpost to be "bomb in the capitol". I tried being reasonable but you don't want to listen to reason.

edit 2: The person you replied to didn't explicitly specify the location, but reporting on these bombs found at the RNC and DNC headquarters was widespread. A good-faith assumption would have been that they were talking about what was widely reported on and didn't feel the need to justify details to someone who is being needlessly pedantic to try and trip people over their own words.

Did you at least learning something new here? About the bombs?

[edmcnulty101]

The person I was responding to claimed there were bombs.

I was just asking them to clarify.

The link you posted shows bombs around D.C. but not at the capitol and there's no clear connection to any organized group or the protests.

Any links that show there were bombs at the capitol building or grounds or that the bombs were confirmed to be connected to the protests?

[dragonwriter]

You mean the bombs at DNC and RNC HQ, or the ones that Lonny Leroy Coffman confessed to bringing, along with firearms, to Capitol Hill?

[edmcnulty101]

No I mean confirmed bombs found in the capitol or near the capitol.

[dragonwriter]

Coffman's truck was, and the DNC and RNC where the bombs were placed are, all near the Capitol.

[edmcnulty101]

Ok. But no confirmed bombs on the capital grounds or in the capital and no confirmed connection between those bombs and the protesters?

How so? Coffman was one of the "protesters."

Coffman admitted in the plea agreement that he exited the pickup truck at 9:20 a.m. and walked in the direction of the U.S. Capitol Building, and towards a rally near the National Mall. Inside the pickup truck were several loaded firearms within arms-reach of the driver’s seat, hundreds of rounds of ammunition, large-capacity ammunition feeding devices, a crossbow with bolts, machetes, camouflage smoke devices, a stun gun and a cooler containing 11 mason jars filled with ignitable ingredients for Molotov cocktail incendiary weapons. Coffman also carried a loaded handgun and a loaded revolver as he walked around the area that day. A search of Coffman’s residence in Alabama later that month led to the discovery of 12 additional mason jars containing ignitable substances, each constituting the component parts of Molotov cocktails.

Nothing confirmed from Coffman at the protest on Capitol grounds though?
