Bill Ayers: Why, My Terrorist Bombs Were Nothing At All Like the Tsarnaev's Terrorist Bombs

He compares his use of bombs to law-abiding hunting, as opposed to shooting up a mall.

Does he believe his bombs were legal? The only redeeming quality his bombs had was that they were poorly made. And one blew up as his girlfriend was playing with it and killed her. (She was a terrorist too.)

Also from @benk84, a reporter finally asks him about this:

There is no relationship at all between what Weather Underground members did and the bombings that two brothers allegedly committed on April 15 in Massachusetts, Ayers said in response to a reporter’s question. No one died in the Weather Underground bombings.

“How different is the shooting in Connecticut from shooting at a hunting range?” Ayers said. “Just because they use the same thing, there’s no relationship

...

The United States is the most violent country that has ever been created, Ayers said.

...

“To conflate a group of fundamentalist people [in Boston] who are nihilistic in some way with a group of people who spent their lives trying to oppose the murder of 6,000 people a week … and still the killing went on. And still the killing went on. What would you have done?” Ayers said. “There’s no equivalence [with Boston]. Property damage. That’s what we did."

...

Authorities said the bombs were intended to be used at a dance at the Fort Dix Army base in New Jersey.

Then he continues asking how he's any different from John McCain.
