Literally across the street from my parents house. Dad was outside when it went off and it scared the crap out of him.

Do they know the neighbors?
Like, any guess is they had intention of terrorism, or if it's more like idiot teenagers trying to do something dangerous for kicks and giggles?

Based on the neighborhood, my money is on hillbilly idiot activities.

As stupid as that is, I feel more comfortable with that than someone out to hurt people.

Agreed. Salisbury NH being known for its terrorist splinter cells and all, its a relief to finally hear this one might not have been a political attack

Don't know anything about the town. Usually the point of a bomb is to hurt people.

I think you greatly underestimate the number of people that play with explosives. The last NH explosion that made the news was a gender reveal btw.

Would it be described as a "bomb" though?

Yeah, if it makes a big boom, it’s a bomb. Especially in police and clickbait news reports.
Also it’s dangerous, but intent to harm cannot be assumed without more details. See Hanlon’s Razor.

Exploding stuff is fun when done in a safe manner

I'd say more likely around Salisbury the point is to hear it go "boom", see a flash (time of day dependent) and laugh like giddy children. My largest concern, as a parent, would be that the kids aren't being as dumb as I was. These kids sounds like they are as dumb I was.

Sounds like there isn't one.

The dude put a /s on his comment, which means SARCASM. As in, you're trying to argue a point against a JOKE COMMENT.
Holy shit man have your mom and dad hold your hand when you go on the internet.
ThunderySleep t1_iv8zbah wrote
Right, I got that the first time, and it's clear by the conversation.
So what are you talking about with your "whoosh"?
Seems like it's you who's lost.

Hillbilly’s have been known to do some really dumb shit the last couple years. Google “capitol insurrection.”

Don't stereotype hillbillies. Most of them are good people, not terrorists. Most of those traitors weren't hillbillies.

The one thing I wish the government would come in and regulate/ban… lol.

Wait... TikTok challenges or pipe bombs?
Annual_Champion_1555 t1_iv3zdml wrote
Tiktok. I’d hope by now that bomb making is illegal.

what a waste of resources. Teenagers being teenagers

I did a lot of things when I was a teenager that weren’t exactly legal. Doing things like this wasn’t one of them.

I remember when they were finding pipe bombs in some North Shore in Massachusetts cities a while back. Every few months they'd find one. Don't think they ever found the culprit.
