Haley Bogdon - Army veteran charged with plotting terror attacks in LA area

The article was written about a 26 year old US Army solider who was charged with planning terrorist attacks in Los Angeles, CA.  Mark Steven Domingo was planning to detonate bombs containing nails at a Long Beach rally that was put on by a white nationalist group.  He was arrested Friday night after he picked up the bombs. Domingo wanted to get revenge for attacks that happened against Muslims and he wanted to attack Jewish people, churches and law enforcement officers.  He posted a video online on March 2 about his Muslim faith and stated that "America needs another Vegas event."  He also stated that he wanted there to be revenge for the New Zealand mosque shooting.  Domingo asked an FBI agent informant to help him build a bomb and he met with him to discuss this plan.  Luckily, he was arrested before he could carry out his plans.  I am so thankful that people now are on the lookout for people who post things that could be a sign of a planned attack.  I also think that the law enforcement agents are having to be more alert and look for signs that people want to carry out mass murders.  I think that the L.A. area definitely escaped something that could have been very tragic.
