The Unabomber Has Died

And in the wake of Pat Robertson now Teddy has gone on to the hereafter.

Quote

Theodore "Ted" Kaczynski, the Harvard-educated mathematician who retreated to a dingy shack in the Montana wilderness and ran a 17-year bombing campaign that killed three people and injured 23 others, died Saturday. He was 81.

Branded the "Unabomber" by the FBI, Kaczynski died at the federal prison medical center in Butner, North Carolina, Kristie Breshears, a spokesperson for the federal Bureau of Prisons, told The Associated Press. He was found unresponsive in his cell early Saturday morning and was pronounced dead around 8 a.m., she said. A cause of death was not immediately known.

Before his transfer to the prison medical facility, he had been held in the federal Supermax prison in Florence, Colorado, since May 1998, when he was sentenced to four life sentences plus 30 years for a campaign of terror that set universities nationwide on edge. He admitted committing 16 bombings from 1978 and 1995, permanently maiming several of his victims.

Years before the Sept. 11 attacks and the anthrax mailing, the "Unabomber's" deadly homemade bombs changed the way Americans mailed packages and boarded airplanes, even virtually shutting down air travel on the West Coast in July 1995.

Maybe he and Pat can be roomies in the hearafter.

The difference between Ted and Pat (in my opinion) is that Ted had some mental illness going on that skewed his way of thinking. While Pat was just a piece of shit.  Of course Ted was in the correct place when he died. He was a danger to society. Pat was also a danger to society. But he didn’t break any laws. So he got to spread his manifestos on tv while Ted kept his manifestos to himself in prison. 
 

ETA: I have to add, that yes Pat has some skewed thinking too. But millions of people actually agree with Pat. Otherwise he wouldn’t have had a show for so many years. Not as many people actually agree with Ted. Although there are some.
