Members gil1 Posted February 1, 2007 Members Share Posted February 1, 2007 State Attorney General Martha Coakley said:"We're not going to let this go without looking at the further roots of how this happened to cause the panic in this city," she said at a news conference Wednesday night. Gee, could it be the constant politically-manipulative terrorist-themed media mongering Bush Co has been pushing for the last few years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NITEFLY182 Posted February 1, 2007 Members Share Posted February 1, 2007 I dont understand why this is being called a "hoax" and not "guerilla advertising." CN didn't try to trick anyone or call them bombs, they simply placed them. Any idiot knows terrorists wouldn't put on a light show for people they intend to kill. That would be funny and terrorists aren't funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Andre XXX Posted February 1, 2007 Members Share Posted February 1, 2007 Whan a cop gets a call that a mysterious electronic device is taped to the bottom of a bridge they put their lives onthe line to check it out ( while your at home pulling your dick ) ... if they get there and see some weird light bright with a tubular object taped to the bottom of it covered in black electrical tape with wires sticking out of it...they have to assume it could be a bomb or similar device. Please step back, take a breath and think about it logically for a minute. What the {censored} else should they have done ?? Put their life possibly on the line ?? Hind site is 20 20. We now know some moron put it up as a marketing campaign. The cop or guy on the bomb squad trying to protect stupid {censored}s like you and me didn't have that knowledge when they first encountered the suspicious device.... Get it ??? Any response less then the one given would have been negligent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
