The striking decline in the "Threats to US Department of the Treasury facilities" column is amusing, isn't it ? Autre temps, autres moeurs...

Message #58600 from Hawkmoon at Nov 24, 2002 10:49 AM Each year there are about 30,000 bombing incidents in the US Hmmm... Wouldn't expect something like this from you FL... From 1993 to 1997, 13,510 bombings or attempted bombings were reported to ATF. Of these incidents, 4,619—a full 34 percent--were attributed to juveniles (i.e., by Federal statute, those who are less than 18 years of age). The statistical percentages of juvenile bombings vary widely geographically. So that comes down to about 3,000 per year.... So maybe that's what you meant, right?? Get with the program, H. My note specifically said the FBI handles many more 'local' cases that are not reported to the ATF. Your numbers are completely worthless. I called the ATF for mine to dig up a partial answer to posters' queries. Those numbers alone surprised most people. Why don't you call the FBI and help us out here rather than smart-assing around? (You can research this while you sit in the FADG Jail for a few days...) --fl
