What is wrong with people? I just want to sit and cry when I see all the stuff other people do to each other. This man should be ashamed of himself for trying to sell this stuff, I am glad it was the FBI and not some other weirdo that wanted to hurt other people.

I wonder if they can charge him on some kind of terroist law. I would think that it could be considered some kind of chemical weapon.

Make him test it; be sure that's what it really is.

That'll solve any "issues" that person had for "needing" it, now won't it??

I want to know where a man in Texas gets enough cyanide to "kill a city."

This man IS a terrorist. He should be prosecuted to the fullest extent.

How did he get Russian materials?

Hope this is not just a worm in a bigger can of worms!! This is way too close to home.
Slow down there

Slow down and read it again.
The only thing Russian is the AK-47. Its a type of gun. I am not trying to make fun or light of this story so please read it again with the knowledge about the gun. The chemicals he had are commonly used in several industries, they are dangerous only when used as a weapon. It's all about quantity in this instance.
Holy Jeez

Things like this could POSSIBLY come across our open boarder anytime. That is why some of us are so intense about illegal immigration. The mules bring illegals across by the truck loads, and we don't know what else could be in those vehicle.

ps. Minor point - the largest manufacturer of AK-47's is China; has been for ... 30 yrs? That's where most poor nations buy their weapons from.

This is just someone who was caught. Don't you know that dozens of transactions like this go on each year in the USA and Mexico?

A tanker truck full of potassium cyanide was stolen in Mexico a few years back. The theft was reported on the news, that the police was "still looking" for the trailer a month after the original incident.
