FBI investigating bomb found at Martin Luther King Day parade

The FBI is investigating whether racial bias could have played a role in the apparent attempted bombing of a Martin Luther King Jr. Day parade route in Spokane, Wash., officials said Wednesday.

Three city employees spotted an unattended black backpack on a bench about an hour before the parade honoring the slain civil rights leader was to start on Monday. When they looked inside and saw wires, they alerted Spokane police, who defused a potentially lethal explosive device, officials said. source

Why is this one being kept quite?

Good job by the citizens and police of Spokane.

As to why it's being kept quiet...  Are you being rhetorical?      M

Even more perplexing- is why would you notice or have a problem with secrecy?

I notice it, <insert derogatory name here>, because it was covered on a news program I watched. Considering the media coverage that the recent devices in Maryland and DC got, I would figure that the media would be all over this.

It is a case of domestic terrorism, pure and simple.

Most people could not find it on a map.   BTW, I thought guns were the threat, bombs are NOT guns.

Hunk, why not use your brain for once?
Guns, in the hands of an some individuals is a threat, bombs are a threat, a knife is a threat, in the hands of some individuals, so is a lead pipe, a baseball bat and any number of items found around your home.

If you used your brain, you would know that.
