That's what I was thinking last night as it was happening.. Time, and investigation will tell how it happened. The news media was full of speculation last night.I hate thinking this but, the chances of this happening so close to the date of the "Waco Massacre April 19th" plus just 3 day's after the "Boston Attacks" seems very suspicious to me.
Authorities claim there is no connection, just an accident (Still, treating it as a crime). But, I would have to say it's just as soft a target as the "Boston Attack".
The individuals would also have to know, the level of destruction the plant would create. (The same type of chemicals used in the Oklahoma Explosion)
Right now the authorities will treat this as a crime, until they know for sure it was an accident.
One shouldn't assume that government regulators are the end-all/be-all of safety. An inspector is human, just like anyone else, and can and does make mistakes. They cannot be at a plant 100% of the time to ensure continued conformance to safety standards -- only employees can do that.Texas, for all its good attributes, is not generally held as an example of workplace/environmental safety enforced by regulation/inspection.
