27 year old Bangladeshi national with a Brooklyn address. been in the states for 7 years.

What a total failure as a person. Couldn't even successfully kill himself never mind anyone else.

As soon as the terror attack happened at the Port Authority both Uber and Lyft stepped in and raised their prices to take advantage of it.

Is it just me or do safety (pre)cautions and suicide attack belong in the same sentence? ???

For those of us old enough to remember,

1) 23 years ago this month there was another NYC subway bombing. 49-year-old Edward Leary was convicted for it. He used a mayonnaise jar filled with explosive liquid and an ignition device. 43 People were injured.

2) This is the bomber. Edward J. Leary was a 49-year-old unemployed computer consultant. You never know what thoughts are in the mind of a person. You can never tell who they are by looks alone.
