“fear of a potential mob-justice situation emerging.” That MAY be IT, Kaylasdad - I don’t know. The MOVE might be just “protecting” Reed from vigilante retribution. Very possible. ---

I don’t see a Pitting, here. Lets try this in GD, instead. ---

Thank you, MIller. In honor of “getting out of the Pit”, I promise to avoid posting in Authentic Frontier Gibberish anymore - which I guess relates to what some here have called “affectation”. And now we can await further developments and see whether Reed is good, bad, or ugly. ---

> [@Habakkuk3](#): > > in any case, his life has been pretty well messed-up even by accusation You could say this about any major investigation into a well-known crime. It may be unfortunate, but unless the investigation is wrongful or abusive, there’s not much to be done about it. ---

> [@Habakkuk3](#): > > This may not be pit-worthy, it probably is not, but everyone hates my guts here and no doubt any responses would belong in the Pit. Fine, but if you post a Pit thread you should make clear in the OP exactly what and/or whom you are Pitting, which you have not. ---

I raise my hand, signalling guilty of a technical foul for “Illegal Pitting” - which is just like “Defensive 3 Seconds” - only different. ---

The pipe bomb components mentioned seemed a bit more serious than your average black powder set up. I’ve had a funny feeling about the whole shebang since it first went up in flames. West and his story? Peculiar…Have to see how it plays out. HaBkk3…you aint so bad after all. ---

I’m not really sure what you think is suspicious here. A guy who may or may not have been involved in the fertilizer plant explosion is now in federal custody. And? ---
