5. Perhaps one of the Mexican cartels?

Nov 2014

Police station + Federal courthouse + Mexican consulate = Either an extreme far right white supremacist group or Mexican cartel. I'm leaning toward someone affiliated to one of the Mexican cartels angry that the US Marshal Service is apparently helping the Mexican Marines do drug raids, although this is being denied by US officials.

I'm inclined to rule out a far right white supremacist, IED vests have not been something they are known for and the FBI has done a pretty good job of making sure that they haven't been successful in planning any attacks in some time.
