Machines | CNN Tannerite Video of MN Dump Truck Explosion
videos | at work | information | view | construction
I noticed this was not on youtube yet. I put this up for discussion. The man was arrested and "charged" with 3 felonies for doing nothing illegal. Non-commercial use of explosives on private property is not illegal. Anyone know more of the charges? Interesting enough however, he was released fast with no bail. Odd if they are serious charges!

We have neighbors who set off explosions all the time. Ky. and In. allow this and it doesn't matter if you complain. It's legal, and probably wouldn't matter if it caused say, someone to get thrown from a horse while trying to ride. This shit should ALL be illegal.

CNN is stupid and so is the cop that was talking about this. This is blown way out of proportion. This is called Tannerite and is harmless by itself. It cannot be detonated unless hit with a high impact velocity round from a firearm. Usually a rifle.

on private property, NO WILLFUL damage to human life, NO WILLFUL damage to others private property, NO WILLFUL assault on anyone else NOT involved..... ATF KNOW the people, sit down have a few beers and find a few allies.

so a white guy makes a bomb and blows it up and gets a pat on the back....what if this were a muslim? think he would get the same treatment?? in addition I find it amazing that you will be sent to jail for possession of pot or other drugs but buying enough tannerite to blow up a building is perfectly legal! only in america! this guy should get life without parole.

This is epic. this should not be a charge, this guy should get a medal. pure awesome

everyone is so paranoid that "terrorists" are out to get them, you are more likely to die crossing the street! or by being abducted by aliens -_-

Mean while we let in Muslims and millions of low IQed 3rd worlders.

This guy is my cousin...

Fuck you Government!!! Pieces of shit! FUUUUUUCK YOU!!!

This is a joke, he was on his own property and no one was in danger other than who ever was there and they knew what was going on. If they are going to arrest people for shooting exploding targets than they should just make it illegal.

The man was on probation when he mixed and shot the Tannerite and was not allowed to possess firearms or explosives - Wikipedia

So, a guy buys a legal item (or items) with his own money and uses them on his own private property. And gets arrested ? Am I missing something ?
-
Continue filming these Tannerite super explosions and the legislators are going to get busy, thus ruining all the fun for everyone else.

You can't get blasting caps anymore AFAIK

As long as its stays legal in the U.S. for you to have a little fun with tannerite then im fine, i think we should rely more on having homeland security weeding out the terrorists that actually want to do harm. Just my opinion.

They needed an escape goat to make an example out of. He could have done 1000lbs of tannerite without the criminalizing propaganda, robbery (fines), kidnapping (jail), and imprisonment/harassment/terrorism (probation), all he would have to do is pay for a special permit, a fire dept to be on stand by, and possibly a gov. approved explosives expert, or a tax sponging doughnut eater to supervise it.
So the real reasons why all this was done to him was..
1. To teach a lesson to others that think explosives are fascinating (Gov: "No one gets to blow shit up except us and we like blowing up unarmed men, woman,and children "..."Obama and congress approved!")
2. IF you don't ask us(gov.) permission and don't pay us we'll attack you and make your life miserable!
Gov: "We have enough Americans that believe we serve their interest that we can play this game against almost anyone and still not loose our support base(which is aka stupid human cattle)!" -
Give it time, the liberals will convince small minded sheep that we need another law, one of those useless laws that infringe on liberty.

On the Tannerite page on Wikipedia, there is a link to the report. http://www.wdio.com/kstpImages/childs_criminal_complaint.pdf Scroll to page 3, 4, and 5. This shows the list of charges against him (most were dropped, to my understanding). Each charge has a description stating why he was being charged with those crimes. He was only charged with about $2,800 and three years of probation. Also, he was already on probation for a previous VIOLENT crime (4th degree ASSAULT) and was therefore not allowed possession of firearms or explosive devices. So you guys really think he was totally fine detonating 100lbs of Tannerite on his own property when he had no civil right to own a firearm or explosives? He knew the risks. Also, in the United States, it's perfectly legal for a police officer to stop and search a parolee at any time, so even if he had denied involvement, they could have searched his car and found the guns and empty bottles of Tannerite. I love guns and explosives, but people, do it carefully and legally. If you do stupid shit like Brian Childs here, you make us all look like irresponsible fools.

A bomb are you stupid, tannerite doesn't make a fiery explosion, it extinguishes fire. You're making tannerite sound illegal when it's not. You can buy tannerite at pretty much every sporting goods store.
