Sean Patrick Palmer, of Oklahoma, arrested after explosive device found last week near porch of Satanic Temple in Massachusetts
An Oklahoma man was arrested on Thursday morning in last week’s bombing attempt of a Satanic Temple in Massachusetts.
Sean Patrick Palmer, 49, of Perkins, Oklahoma, was arrested on charges of “using an explosive to cause damage to a building used in interstate or foreign commerce”, the United States’ attorney office for the district of Massachusetts said in a statement.
The Satanic Temple does not actually worship the devil or believe in the existence of Satan or the supernatural, but rather uses Satan as a symbol of free will, humanism and anti-authoritarianism. It regularly angers rightwingers and Christians.
Another violent Christian extremist trolled by the satanic temple throws their life away. Womps and Preyers 🙏
“He’s being unfairly persecuted for exercising his right to peacefully protest with pipe bombs” - Christians and their talking heads probably
People are so fucking stupid.
A six-page handwritten note was found in a flower bed adjacent to where the pipe bomb was discovered. Among other things, the letter allegedly stated:
DEAR SATANIST
ELOHIM SEND ME 7 MONTHS AGO TO GIVE YOU
PEACEFUL MESSAGE TO HOPE YOU REPENT. YOU SAY
NO, ELOHIM NOW SEND ME TO SMITE SATAN AND I
HAPPY TO OBEY. AND ELOHIM WANT ME TO CONTACT
YOU TO
TELL YOU REPENT. TURN FROM SIN. ELOHIM
NO LIKE THIS PLACE AND PLAN TO DESTROY IT. MAYBE
SALEM TOO? ELOHIM SEND ME TO FIGHT CRYBABY
SATAN, BUT WANT ME TO MAKE HARD EFFORT SO NO
ONE DIES. I OBEY.Not to make fun of it. But you’re right and that’s why they’re so dangerous.
When Elohim sends His people , He’s not sending His best…
Just wanted to say this comment made my day.
Well they have the wrong fucking guy, this is obviously Kevin from the office.
It’s oxygen deprivation

There’s no hate like Christian love.
Same as it ever was.
One day you may wake up in an unreasonable cult! And you may ask yourself, “How did I get here?!”
Investigators said they were able to connect Palmer to the incident with a single human hair found on the pipe bomb containing a DNA profile from a Caucasian male, who matched Palmer’s description.
This is almost certainly horseshit.
I give 10:1 odds that he had an FBI Informant snitch or otherwise set him up

I’m happy the feds claimed jurisdiction on this, but ”used in interstate or foreign commerce" just sounds funny to me in this situation.
“Allegedly” my ass,
They have his dna. They have a note, from the bomber saying he was there to proselytize before and they refused to repent.
They have him walking away from the temple, in the same clothes as the bomber, including the tactical vest,
They know he bought the materials to build it.
They know he’s a terrorist.
But they won’t say that.
I mean… that’s because you guys have a justice system and he has to go through that part first… innocent until proven guilty…you know, in a court of law, not on the streets.
presumed innocent.
The fact of guilt is independent of one’s status as suspected, accused, indicted or convicted.
I’d agree it’s a very important procedural mandate; though he is guilty. We can say as much- and should- here.
Also, he needs to be charged for hate crimes. This is a hate crime. The dude’s a domestic terrorist not a vandal who just happened to use a bomb.
Agreed, if not for the presumption of innocence.
Castration
Motherfucker, he didn’t rape the building. He didn’t make a bomb out of his cock ffs. What are you on about with your castration?
This guy definitely shouldn’t reproduce, but I don’t think it’s the government’s place to force that.
I really don’t like even considering the idea of sterilization as a punishment for crimes. It’s Nazi shit.
When their indoctrinated child brings a gun to school or comes along to murder your family with a cowardly pipe bomb, tell them that
I know too many LGBT people whose parents hate them for it to buy that a child always ends up like their parent.
