Who Is Mark Conditt, the Suspected Austin Bomber?By MICHAEL GOLDMARCH 21, 2018
The man suspected in a series of bombings in Austin, Tex., died Wednesday morning when he blew himself up in his vehicle as officers approached, the authorities said.
A law enforcement official identified the suspect as Mark Conditt, a 23-year-old white man.
Mr. Conditt created a blog about his political views as a requirement for a political-science class he took at Austin Community College, according to McKenna McIntosh, a classmate of Mr. Conditts. In an author description, he described himself as a conservative. His posts include arguments against same-sex marriage and sex offender registries and a defense of the death penalty.
Mr. Conditt, the oldest of four children, was home-schooled by his mother. He also attended Austin Community College from 2010 to 2012, but did not graduate.
The suspect was described as a quiet man from a tight-knit, godly family by Donna Sebastian Harp, who had known the family for nearly 18 years. He was a nerd, always reading, devouring books and computers and things like that, Ms. Harp said.

As in they homeschooled themselves because they didn't want any outside influences into what they drilled into their kid's head.
Oh, and the Dad and Mom are hooked into the Amway crap. That would be the DeVos owned Amway company.
