Bombing, Manufacturing Bombs and Bomb Threats
On April 19, 1995, the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City was the target of the most destructive act of domestic terrorism ever committed on U.S. soil. This act was carried out using a homemade truck bomb that took the lives of 168 men, women and children.
It should come as no surprise, then, that Oklahoma takes a very hard stance against terroristic threats and acts of violence involving weapons meant to cause mass destruction.
