This is video of a man placing a pipe-bomb on a mass transit bus in Portland, Oregon. It is chilling to think of how many people could have died. It is also disturbing when you find out how little media attention these attempted terrorist attacks get. It is alarming to find out that stories of bombs being found on a buses and mass transit trains in a major US city after 9-11 would not even be reported by the Associated Press! Remember how any little fake bomb scare was top national news after 9-11? If you have any information about these attacks/attempted attacks please post. Also, if you know of any similar stories of attempted bombings that got little or no media attention, post as much as you know about it. The following are actual events:
December 19, 2001: Man places bomb on a tri-met lift bus in northwest Portland.
September 3, 2003: Bomb found on Max and detonated at Beaverton Transit Center. The explosion shook buildings blocks away. The story quickly disappeared and was not covered by any media outlet outside Portland, just like all of these stories.
October 29, 2005: A bomb explodes at a Gresham Max stop destroying a ticket machine. Tri-met says it was theft, but no tickets or money were taken.
November 27, 2005 (The video on this page): A pipe bomb is placed on tri-met bus. The story and video of the incident are not released until September 2006 with a reward of $1,000 offered. A reward of $500 was offered when kids put a FAKE bomb on the Max.

  • @golddigg3r8000 The one with the grey top and bag

  • Im pretty sure the media didnt make a big deal out of it because it causes the fame of the man who placed it. then others would want the fame too. so the way to avoid more car and bus bombings is to almost ignore them.

  • Didnt he know that putting bombs on buses was ILLEGAL! These foreigners have no respecT for our laws, or TRImets rules. Why Cant they Jihad in a legal, socially exceptable way where no one gets hurt?

  • I guess they don't want to scare the public. It's like reporting suicide. you don't here about it on the news
