Would-be "Occupy" bomber living in Ridgewood

      My home town of Ridgewood was probably never the bucolic small town of my memory. But I doubt this sort of nonsense was going on:

A New York doctor who was active in the Occupy Wall Street movement of 2011 was charged Saturday with possessing a large quantity of chemicals used in bomb-making, hours after authorities conducted a raid on the Ridgewood house in which he lived, officials said.

Roberto Rivera, 60, a medical doctor, was charged with recklessly creating a risk of widespread injury or damage after FBI agents and members of the Bergen County bomb squad found precursor chemicals used in the making of explosives, Bergen County Prosecutor John Molinelli said in a release Saturday afternoon.

Molinelli called at least one of the chemicals "highly volatile," but authorities did not disclose the names of the chemicals found in the house.

       Yikes! I am glad they stopped this guy before he completed whatever it was he was up to. Of course, we know from the press that the "Occupy" movement was peaceful.
