At least sixteen people were injured after an explosion at an FBI training facility on Wednesday.
The incident happened at the Jerry Crowe Regional Tactical Training Facility in Irvine shortly before 1 p.m., according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department.
It must have been an exercise in how to deal with Right-Wing Christian Nationalist MAGA Extremists.
Two positive points about this incident. They didn't destroy a beautiful Peterbilt bomb disposal rig, and now these guys will all qualify for tax-free disability pensions if and when they make it to retirement.
The big problem with explosives is that they are derived from fossil fuels. But NATO is optimistic that they can be made from plant-based alternatives. But! Imagine being killed by a lettuce?
Another version of the article said that the trainees were Orange County Sheriff's Dept SWAT team members, but that article made no mention as to who that trainers were. Hmmm John in Indy
Lots of times when we'd arrive at a call, we'd know right where the device was because a shit load of cops would be milling around it blabbing on their radios and just generally exposing themselves to the device. Now, it seems the people who should know better are guilty of the same stupidity. Fuck em. Energetic materials don't care if you're training or on a live call. Eod1sg Ret
“Authorities said a canister of some sort exploded during the annual joint training exercise. A small building where the blast ignited inside was seen cordoned off by police tape. “ I can see it now: “For our first exercise this morning, we are going to demonstrate how a flash-bang grenade works. When you throw it through a window, it doesn’t injure the people inside the house, and we are going to let you see that first hand. Now if everyone would get into this small building here, we’ll show you how the flash-bang makes a lot of noise and light, but doesn’t hurt anyone.”
Explosives, the best way to make the workplace “diverse”.

ReplyDeleteThe drill to blow up a chicken farm got out of control.
ReplyDeleteIdiots, explosives but no falling anvils.
