A high school security guard has admitted to manufacturing, selling and mailing homemade explosives with a teenage accomplice after half a ton of explosives were found.
The indictment says he was selling “titanium salute”, and a cursory Google search shows that it is sought after mainly by people interested in DIY pyrotechnics.
The market for bombs used in assassinations is quite small.
Given the time of year, it seems more likely that he was making home made fireworks, which are obviously also explosives.
I think you’re spot on.

Thank you for this comment. I read “explosives” and immediately thought “bombs”. Fireworks are much more likely and easier to believe.
The headline does use the word bomb, but I don’t know if that was actually ever proven to be the case.
