A Mississippi man allegedly bombed a Walmart storefront Sunday, days after threatening the corporation for no longer selling inventory with the Confederate emblem.

Tupelo authorities caught Marshall Leonard, 61, shortly after he fled the big box store’s parking lot in a car with a giant Mississippi flag fluttering out of the sunroof, authorities told the Daily Journal.

He is accused of tossing a small package at the store’s front door at around 1:30 a.m. as a Walmart employee stood nearby.

“There was an employee on break, and the suspect told him, ‘You better run,” Tupelo Police Chief Bart Aguirre told the paper.

The employee bolted without injury from the small blast that caused only minor damages to the Walmart Supercenter on North Gloster Street.

Leonard now faces an explosives charge.

Sigh another nutjob. I wonder if this qualifies as Terrorism though since he threw a bomb.. and that is a WMD.

Well what did we expect? A photo similar to Betty White?
Maybe we should forget about mental health or psychology analysts when to comes to people that bomb and shoot up classrooms.
With all the cameras in society today keeping an eye on everybody, I'm thinking more of some highly advance face recognition software.
And that would probably take care of the entire problem.
The cops could just pull these people off the streets.

He should'a just left the traditional burning paper sack filled with crap in it for all the damage his bomb caused vs the trouble he's now in.

And now he's cast a foul odor on the folks who celebrate their southern pride proudly but quietly.

IMO, putting their history with slavery aside, southerners have a lot to be proud of and rightly so. But that bomb thrower with his half-ass bomb didn't to anything to put a luster on southern pride. In fact, he tarnished it badly.

Another Racist Inflammatory Thread by Indus. What a Surprise.
Why don't you get a Real Life??

We have people throwing bombs and you're going to come up with racist inflammatory stuff?

This country has gone down the drain with political correctness people!

He failed to recognize a business opportunity. Mail order racist flags, Seminars promoting racism at local Holiday Inn, Getting Paula Deen to endorse him. I can't do all the heavy lifting for racist. Think outside the box. Or anywhere!

it makes sense. Our southern white racists carry the same mental handicaps as the taliban or isis. They all just want to go back to the good old days and are willing to do violence to get there.

Anyone who has that rural conservative mindset is in the same ideology as the taliban. They just grew up with different values. Im sure that includes people of many races and many countries. Thats not to say all rural people are bad.

At least those assholes can manage to make a simple bomb. And they have far fewer resources at their disposal.

They are just further down the rabbit hole then our conservatives. Give them a 2700sq ft home with cable tv and they will be just as incompetent.

Right wing groups oppose each other. Hardline Jewish groups and hardline Palestinian groups are identical in mindset and diametrical opposed in viewpoints.

It is in HOW people think not what they think. Its not bigotry to talk about it.

"Southerners have a lot to be proud of.." Really, I must have missed that.
Is it the racism, the traitors, the civil war, Mississippians with no running water, lifted pick up trucks, confederate flags, .....?

Well they get more from the federal government then they pay in taxes so that's something to be proud of. Whats it called? "starve the beast"? Isnt that what they want to do? Try to kill the federal government by killing its funding.
