feature: fbi say that naacp bombing was deliberate

January 7, 2015

Yesterday, in what many are regarding as a hate crime, a bomb exploded outside the NAACP’s Colorado Spring chapter office. The FBI have now confirmed that the bombing was  deliberate, and are searching for a balding white male in his 40s who they believe detonated the homemade bomb outside the office before driving off in a white pickup truck.  Although local and national NAACP leaders have been cautious to label this a hate crime, it seems likely that this was a racially motivated attack – directly linked to the growing racial tensions. Luckily nobody was hurt in this incident.
