| [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]The man who police suspect killed two people and wounded five in a spate of bombings throughout Austin, Texas, this month reportedly said in his confession tape that he wasn't sorry for the attacks, and that he believed he was a "psychopath." "I wish I were sorry but I am not," 23-year-old Mark Anthony Conditt said in a cellphone recording, just hours before he blew himself up in his vehicle as police closed in. Authorities have not released the recording, but law-enforcement sources described its contents to the Austin American-Statesman on Thursday. Conditt said in the recording he felt as though he was disturbed since childhood, according to the Statesman. He reportedly said little about his victims, but acknowledged that the deaths he'd caused left families without their loved ones. Conditt also didn't reveal a motive for the attacks in the confession tape, which the Statesman's sources said lasted roughly 28 minutes and was recorded after 9 p.m. on Tuesday. Conditt began the recording by saying, "It's me again." He went on to blame himself for accidentally tipping off authorities about his identity by entering an Austin-area FedEx store to drop off two packages with explosives inside them. Austin Police Chief Brian Manley did not describe the recording in detail, but he said Conditt said nothing about terrorism or anything about hatred. |

| Reminds me of Dylann Roof's desire to be called a sociopath instead of autistic. _________________ "If opportunities for role fulfilment fall far short of the demand by those capable of filling roles, and having expectations to do so, only violence and disruption of social organization can follow. Individuals born under these circumstances will be so out of touch with reality as to be incapable even of alienation. Their most complex behaviors will become fragmented. Acquisition, creation and utilization of ideas appropriate for life in a post-industrial cultural-conceptual-technological society will have been blocked." - John B. Calhoun
Everything is going wrong.... Farmers are generally on the verge of ruin. Trade is always bad. The Church is in danger. The House of Lords isn’t worth a dozen years’ purchase. The throne totters. - Anthony Trollope

Don't worry, they'll call him a terrorist anyway. _________________ "My guns are the only things that haven't stabbed me in the back." -Kip Kinkel

Don't worry, they'll call him a terrorist anyway. Along with all the antifa leftists on twitter and tumblr who label every single mass murderer who's white a "white terrorist". The word terrorist is quickly losing its meaning. It probably already has. | |

| [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Authorities had not previously disclosed details of the cellphone video in which Mark Conditt admitted being behind the string of bombings that began on March 2, killing two people and wounding five others, beyond saying that it showed a troubled young man. "I think the best evidence we have at this point in time is the confession itself ... He did refer to himself as a psychopath. He did not show any remorse, in fact questioning himself for why he didn't feel any remorse for what he did," U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul told a news conference in Austin when asked about Conditt's motive. "It's hard to imagine someone whose mind is so sick that they could commit bombings like this and feel absolutely no remorse," he said. Conditt died after detonating a explosive device early on Wednesday as police ran toward his vehicle in an Austin suburb. So apparently they are gonna take him saying he thought he was a psychopath as the motive behind the attacks. |

The word terrorist is quickly losing its meaning. It probably already has. It's incredibly annoying. These people make white nationalists look good in comparison. _________________ "My guns are the only things that haven't stabbed me in the back." -Kip Kinkel

| “Terrorism is, in the broadest sense, the use of intentionally indiscriminate violence as a means to create terror among masses of people; or fear to achieve a financial, political, religious or ideological aim”
