What would happen if one was caught up in the United States of Amerikkka synthesizing small quantities of HEs for personal use and had a decent stash of homemade LE pyrotechnics? Would they be charged as a terrorist or would the law understand that they were making them for scientific purposes only?

Unlawful possession/manufacture of restricted explosive material for undisclosed purpose.

You'd have to come up with a really good excuse or risk getting locked up for 2 to 10 years, depending on the kind of charge they'd try to press.

do a google search for 'teen arrested + explosives' or 'teen arrested + bombs'. People DO get "busted" pretty often (although I can only think of one or two BB members who have had a brush with the law; it's usually kewls making pipe bombs in their backyard), and, while they don't go DHS (dept. of homeland security) on your ass (unless you have blueprints of your school lying around or something), you can be sure they'll call in the bomb squad to remove any and all powders, liquids, gels, and containers from your house. The media will claim you were "plotting to make pipe bombs" even if you were making fountains and sparklers. Don't worry too much about that, though. They'll pick up some other story to fear-monger in a week or so, and nobody will remember it (but good luck getting a job). HEs will obviously result in more serious charges than BP and the like. If you are under 18 you might get lucky, but otherwise, be prepared to have the book thrown at you. I don't know what the specific charges would be (probably something along the lines of manufacturing explosives w/o a permit, etc), but you'd be pretty fucked.

Yeah, that was one of the few I spoke about. But he was fucking crazy. Ever seen that video of a 12kg det? I think it was APPN...anyways, that was him. It woke people up across the channel.

Also; the United States of "Amerikkka"?

Anyway, hows things BB? It's been a while...

I got busted with a device pre 9/11 and the charge actually fell through the cracks. I went for my "probation" hearing, since I was underage, and the only charges were minor intoxication and curfew violation. I ended up getting 6 months informal probation, which I promptly skipped out on. Left the state. Never had a problem since then, and it's been about a decade.


As for the device, I am too ashamed to even describe it. Let's just say it was kewl as fuck, and I am lucky I got busted before I set it off, or I wouldn't be typing this with so many fingers.


EDIT side note:


HAPPY BIRTHDAY DTP!

This is certainly not a good time to get caught making/possessing HE of any type, or LE devices. The overreaction by local authorities will certainly bring the attention of the Feds, at which point your day...and days to come...are going to be seriously f*cked. You must have noticed that the postings by the most experienced pyros on this BB have been severely circumscribed for some time now. There's a reason for this. Individuals fortunate (?) enough to be located in BFE can pretty much play to their heart's content (Ragnar Benson comes to mind) but anyone living in urban or suburban America should probably keep a very low profile.

That's just my opinion, of course.

the only reason you fell thru the cracks was cause you were underage

im thinking theyd do a search of your computer and although this site is perfectly legal, the fact you've got information spells intent to some douchebag lawyer and i dont know about you but i'd probably go to guantanamo

Sentinel
2008-08-24, 21:39
No, you won't go to Guantanamo. And the reason posting has been low as of late is because it always is at the end of the summer. People returning to school, etc, etc. You will be pretty fucked, but again, unless they find some sort of evidence of actual terrorist plans, you'll "just" get the normal ATF shit thrown at you. DO expect Fed involvement, though. Just don't keep a blueprint of your school laying around...

And since when has doing pyro in urban areas EVER been a good idea? I was assuming EVERYONE set off their stuff in rural areas.

As happened to me in western europe...

One and a half year ago i got "busted" by plain clothes for "creation and distribution of documentation that could be used for terrorist purposes".

Stole a couple chems, glassware and my books but no charges were held. The SS simply wanted to intimidate w/ stealing all my stuff and pulling a ww2 style 'interrogation', to which i answered by telling them to go fuck themselves.

Since then they call to threaten from time to time, but they can suck on it because every piece of information that goes thru is hosted in the USA, hahaha :D

You know, we all try to think up an excuse in advance but then the cops find the 5 liters jug of 98% H2SO4 and we ALL go "hmpfrr @#%!" under our beards.

Then the most defensive argument to use is : "i'm doing creative chemistry" or "fun chemistry". My personal excuse for having all sorts of acids is making flash paper for 'magic tricks'. Prank them live with the "dollar bill appearing from a sheet of paper"; guaranteed to have their blood pressure drop significantly.

NEVER EVER try to bullshit them about "doing research" or crap like that, because then instead of just taking your chems away they will call in an expert to identify them.

Might be fine if he finds a bunch of AN, KNO3 etc, but what happens when he tests that little vial of GHB or 5-meo-dmt you forgot about ? Answer: a shitload of trouble.

I only had precursors so I told them how I didn't want to spend the money on commercial products when mek will clean the stove better than any of them, h202 clean wounds better than soap, and so on, such forth. I lucked out on that count, well luck and just a general paranoia of having anything too incriminating about for long periods of time.

Years ago some fuck face said I helped him blow up a safe he stole from a drug dealer. So, the head detective and chief of police are knocking on my door in the middle of smoking a joint with my girlfriend.


Long story short, I told them I make fireworks, within legal limits, and would never EVER sell or teach someone ANYTHING (which is true). They asked to search, I told them get a warrant. They left me alone after that.


So I went home, finished drying my NG, made my devices and had a fuck of a fourth of july. Fuck them. And fuck that cunt who lied and said I helped him with shit.


Let that be a lesson to everyone that no matter how much you trust someone, they will probably let it slip to someone else, and next thing you know, you have a reputation in your town for being some kind of explosives expert, and then you end up with fuckers trying to rope you in on shit just to save their own ass.

Similar thing happened to me although not quite on that scale, I once told a friend about KNO3 + Sugar smoke devices. Next thing I know I'm being called on his mobile at a festival where there happens to be a riot going on and told to come to the security office. Being a genuinely concerned friend at the time I obliged to find my naked drunk friend in the cells and a box of stump remover on the table. Long story short he had been running around naked, spraying people with a fire extinguisher and had then tried to light it right in the middle of the busy main arena in broad daylight. He has then told the security that I had made it for him and had told him to go and do it. Needless to say the security actually believed me when I said I had nothing to do with it despite having pupils like saucers and chewing my face off. They also wanted at £60 bribe to let him go and not hand this over to the police for further investigation/possible terrorism/explosive charges but I left the cunt to rot there, few months later he was thrown in prison for being a pedo.

You will get bum fucked. Nearly everyone in the "normal" community, will "know" that a "big, humongous bomb" will do more damage then 100 smaller ones. The public is uneducated, and because of the sand niggers, you will more likely get done with "conspiracy to commit a terrorist act" or whatever it is. That said, dont test explosive/s and/or device/s near your home, ideally dont make them at home, and never store information regarding explosive/s and/or device/s. If thats unavoidable, then hide them really frikken well, but dont store is of course the best way to make sure theres no evidence at your house. Nearly everyone in the developed world has enough chemicals in their make-up cupboard to make a "bomb".

A few years back my "hobby" got called in to the local Police... luckily my friend caught wind of it and let me know 1/2 hour before they got to my place / storage shed... at the time I kept everything on removible CD/Rs now I keep it on a 500GB external drive..


Anyways long story short I ended up littlerally throwing anything I could think of that would be remotly related to anything explosive into a wheel barrow and ran it to the back of my 5 acres and into the firepit it goes... gas + match = fire... I took any litrature wrapped it in a few dozzen garbage bags them sealed it with ducktape and threw it into the middle of some juniper bushes.

By the time I got back the cops were just pulling in.. they brought a teck allong with them and they couldn't find any anything... I got a warning of "keeping your guns and dropping your hobby or going to jail"... so I dropped the hobby for the time and just stock piled info untill I can get a bigger place to myself.

Funny thing is I resently got fucked over by an X fiance and had to get rid of all my rifles due to her being a lieing jewish con artist cunt and my "Examiner" to see if I was fit to own firearms was a one sided cock eating piece of shit that beleive more of what he had on paper and what he "thought" I meant instead of what I was saying... took it to court... got fucked by the system... gotta wait two years untill I can own a fire arm again...

So I'm going for a loop hole... going to get my gun smithing licence... then I can own anything I want xD.

What else to expect from ragheads/desert scum/subhumans anyway ?

Can't these idiots figure that IT'S WAY EASIER TO BUY 100 KG OF AMMONIUM NITRATE FOR A PHONY FARM and build a small peroxide detonator than to try and smuggle TONS of primaries or flagged ingredients around ? :rolleyes:

AN is actually flagged now, along with any other nitrates that are be used in explosives. Unless you live near a farm supply store that sells bulk fertilizers, there is no way your going to get your hands on that much without being noticed.

They have buying patterns that they are supposed to look out for. only buying AN? In the wrong season? That said, I don't know that it actually works, so they are probably just sticking to the markers they are adding to trace terrorist anfo.

Obviously you don't know RedSky, he was a loose cannon who bragged about his "stock pile of NH4NO3". IIRC he even phoned up his local police station and threatened to bomb it, or that might have been someone else.

Either way, if you're caught with HE's expect a shitstorm. Weather you were just researching energetic materials or just "having some fun" they will see it as a "bomb factory" and you will be named and shamed in every news paper, magazine and 12.00 news.

Newsflash: Guantanamo bay, Cuba, is the place where supposed members of "terrorist groups" get sent.

You could be busted with 2 tons of TNT in your garage and not go there. You'll only get shipped if your name appears on a terror watchlist such as the DHS/DOD's or Interpol's TRS (travel restrictions of suspects).
