Other than that, though, you were right on the money about me. That's a spectacular talent you have.

Whoop de dooooo From what you have told me you have a lot of learning to do.

So who are you blaiming for this over reaction???
Mayor Mumbles?? Who I am sure relied on the bomb squad and others in the Police department...so???
The bomb squad?? are you saying THEY are incompetent for not recognizing it at all??
OR?? Others?? the media??
And who should PAY for the cost of it all?? The media company and such that saw it at 10AM and did bothing for hours?? KNOWING it was nothing and not letting officials know....
I agree people here should NOT live in fear AT ALL..and what President has been fostering that fear and panic???
I do think it relevant where someone lives...THAT is so simple that it doesn't even warrant an explanation of why...
Interesting background..but doesn't give any more weight to your opinion..

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Thanks, Sensei.

How old are you, anyway? And what about your background lends credibility to your opinion? Hmmmm?

Common sense is crucial today, and it's going bye-bye. You ask me who I blame? #1 is an administration that has tripled the amount of worldwide terror attacks under the guise of fighting it. The politicians and news media are #2 and #2A for making their nut off of perpetuating the hysteria and making any person with brown skin a target for unshackled stupidity and hate. #3 is the people who blindly believe all of the bull***** that they're told. #46Q is a guerilla marketing campaign using Lite-Brites and a middle-finger-waving cartoon.

What else do you want to know about me? You want to know about how many bomb ("suspicious package") alarms I had to respond to in the military? More than one. How many real bombs? Zero. How many "Calling all cars the sky is falling!" reactions from me or my guys? Zero.

P.S. Try to gather all your thoughts before you hit 'Submit'...that way you don't look like a dunce responding twice to the same post.

Very clever retort. Thank you for addressing my questions in such an adult manner.

Incidentally, I always thought "ass" was spelled with three leters, but I'm sure the fourth asterisk stands for something earth-shattering.

On the news just now, they werent pipe bombs, lol. They were advertisements made out of light brite lights, mistaken as bombs. They are being sued for 2 million dollars for the states time.

LOL Been living in that cave long, frankie?

And they are not being sued, Time Warner voluntarily settled $2M on the state because of the poor judgement they showed in endorsing this idiotic advertising ploy not to mention remaining mum about it for hours after the bomb scare story hit the national airwaves.

I'd rather my officials err on the side of over reacting than under reacting.

Fixit · 02-05-2007, 05:25 PM

Anyone think Turner cares about forking over $2M? Look how much freakin' publicity they got!
