      Precursor chemicals are tracked way more seriously than before the OKC bombing.

      Making a truck-sized bomb is pretty much impossible in the US atm.

        There's gotta be somebody out there who has been slowly stockpiling since the early 90's.

            "I got a really good deal of pressure cookers at a going out of business sale, so I just had to buy like a 100 of 'em. Figured I would just give 'em away for Christmas and birthdays until I ran out. Why do you Mr. ATFman?"

        Came here to post this exact same comment. Even in the 90s, McVeigh had a bit of trouble getting some of the chemicals. It's a different ball game now, and McVeigh himself said a few times before his execution that he sometimes regretted it and wished he had went for an assassination plot instead.
