Homeless Man Arrested In Firebombing Of Texas Democrat’s Office
A homeless man with a history of mental illness was arrested in connection with the firebombing of the Fort Worth offices of Texas state Sen. Wendy Davis (D), an official with the city’s fire department said on Wednesday.
Police arrested Cedric Steele, 40, on Tuesday night, just hours after he was suspected of hitting the senator’s district office with a pair of Molotov cocktails, fire Capt. Tom Crow told TPM.
Steele was arrested about 11 p.m. at a convenience store in Fort Worth. He is believed to be homeless and was staying in a vacant building, where Crow said investigators found things that could be used to make the bombs, including bottles, lighter fluid and fuses.
He was being charged with one felony count of arson of an occupied building and held on a $50,000 bond, Crow said.
Steele had apparently visited Davis’ office twice in recent days, once on Friday and again on Monday. Crow said he was hoping to speak to the senator but was unable. On one of his visits, he said the office would be seeing him again.
“He told staffers that they would be ‘hearing about him in the news,’†Crow said. “And it turns out he was right. He was in the news.â€

This kind of stupid should be loaded onto a rocket and fired into orbit around some dead planet in a distant solar system.
Oh, and sterilized first, just in case she is picked up by some alien race and experimented on, accidentally creating hordes super-moronic beings flying Space Priuses around and destroying other planets in the galaxy with their stupid-rays.

With a democrat in office, it's hard for a wino to afford a bottle of gasoline.
