Blue team terror farce

After three weeks, out of 11 cities, Boston decides to freak about the Aqua Teen Hunger Force campaign.

"It's clear the intent was to get attention by causing fear and unrest that there was a bomb in that location," Assistant Attorney General John Grossman said at their arraignment.
No, it's not. If it were clear, don't you think people would have been panicing when this all started? And, duh, if I were putting a bomb somewhere, I sure wouldn't cover it with blinking lights.
Authorities vowed to hold Turner accountable for what Menino said was "corporate greed," that led to at least $750,000 in police costs.

Wow! The War on Terror meets class rhetoric. I guess the Democrats will have to free the Guantanamo detainees so they can fill it with CEOs.

I really want to see a prosecutor snickered at by a jury over this. Maybe they can bring Mike Nifong in to try it; it's not like he has anything left to lose.

This native of Boston is feeling absolutely humiliated. This is not corporate greed, it's public idiocy. (I say public because some of the blame seems to belong to members of the general public, and not just to members of the Defenders of the Fatherland.)

But at least Cartoon Network now has one of the Most Successful Publicity Gimmicks in History.

Now you know how Clevelanders felt after the river AND the mayor's hair burned.
