I almost want to see what these bozos would come up with if they tried to build a bomb. Not exactly the best and brightest America has to offer so I'd expect some duds and premature detonations from "Jim-Bob's Truck Nuts and IED Emporium".

They could very likely come up with something very functional, making IEDs, and even cooking your own explosive fillers is exceptionally easy, you really only need a very basic understanding of chemistry and circuitry (like grade 9 or 10 level). If extremists hiding in caves in Afghanistan could make consistent and effective devices with HME, then Joe Redneck with Internet access and over the counter access to Ammonium Nitrate Aluminum (Tannerite, which is legal in most states and often sold at gun stores) can probably do it too.
