Haven't seen this posted yet.... other states getting "rigged" mail?

[Kanary]

Apparently a "suspicious" envelope was sent to CO's governor, and other states have also received these.

Any news on this from other states?

1. I heard 8 governors

got flammable mail.

8. Flammable mail?

What the hell is flammable mail? Virtually ALL of the mail I've ever gotten is flammable.

Anybody want to provide some details here?

10. This is all I've found on it........ the report was sketchy when I first

saw it, and that's why I asked here:

"DENVER - Mailroom employees intercepted a suspicious letter Friday that was addressed to Colorado's governor. They said it was similar to nine other letters mailed to governors nationwide.

Governor's offices in Montana, Texas, Idaho, Nebraska, Washington, Utah and Oregon received letters Thursday that were rigged with matches set to ignite when they were opened."

2. NY and MA, too

4. Our news said "Western and midwestern states"... Unless they've been

rearranged, NY and MA are in the east, so our news report must have been mistaken.

Thanks for the update.

3. Yes

An inmate in Nevada sent one to Washington, Idaho, Oregon governors. Among others. I googled but couldn't find any mention of it.

7. How does an inmate get the ingredients in and then out again?

Seems like we need a lot of prison reform here too as well as in Iraq.

5. Romney (MA) got one. Were they all Rethugs or no?

6. Colorado's is R. What about the others? n/t

11. Washington Gov got one

an alert staffer noticed it was weird looking so didn't open it. three other states, I forget which, opened them and they started on fire. It seems to have been rigged with matches and paper. WA Gov a Dem. don't know what others

[Kanary]

13. That's one Dem and one Rep. Hadn't heard that one had been triggered.

Thanks for the report.
