A Florida attorney pleaded guilty on Friday to using a rifle to try to detonate explosives outside the Chinese embassy last year in Washington, D.C.
Christopher Rodriguez also bombed a sculpture of communist leaders Vladimir Lenin and Mao Zedong in a courtyard outside the Texas Public Radio building in San Antonio, Texas, in 2022, according to a court filing accompanying his guilty plea.
Rodriguez, 45, of Panama City, Florida, is scheduled to be sentenced in Washington by Chief Judge James Boasberg on Oct. 28.
Under the terms of his plea deal, Rodriguez and prosecutors agreed that seven to 10 years in prison would be an appropriate sentence.
This reminds me that they never caught the Jan 6 bomber that planted explosives at the DNC and RNC headquarters.
And that was just nuts. Like the bomb failed to go off so they had a lot to work with. But they got nothing? Nothing at all? It would be odd that the bomber was intelligent enough to not leave behind any evidence leading back to them but also not have the bomb be built good enough to actually blow.
This guy sounds like a shitstain that needs to go away for a long time.
Now let’s talk about this:
Christopher Rodriguez also bombed a sculpture of communist leaders Vladimir Lenin and Mao Zedong in a courtyard outside the Texas Public Radio building in San Antonio, Texas, in 2022,
WTF? Why is there a statue of these monsters outside of a public radio station?
Edit: See excellent comments below. The statue mocked them! Why was he blowing it up? Is he a communist?
Edit: Please read the excellent comments. There is a good reason. They are being mocked by the sculptor.
The Seattle Times hired someone who then wrote a rant about how horrible it is that there’s a statue of Lenin in Seattle…on private land… There was an uproar and he was quickly fired. You made the same argument.
The bigger WTF is that he used explosives on a public building 2 years ago and is both still free and an attorney in 2024 who attempted another bombing.
