Liberal, lunatic lassie, with mood swings and foot-in-mouth syndrome
of the “post 9-11″ hysteria. Sick of it.
It’s absolute bullshit. Keep listening to a government that controls you with fear. Truly, you are making our would so damn safe with your quivering knees and weak spine.
People died in the bombings.
That sucks.
People died in Katrina, but you don’t see anyone working on strenghtening the levies or our government working on a global warming initiative. That was a tragedy, in its truest sense.
But I digress. Why is a publicity stunt suddenly illegal?
“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
Oh, yeah. A Lite-Brite is now a weapon. Watch out for Nerf Guns and Super Soakers. The Super Soakers could have liquid explosives….jesushfuckingchrist!
“It is outrageous, in a post 9/11 world, that a company would use this type of marketing scheme,” Mayor Thomas Menino said Wednesday. “I am prepared to take any and all legal action against Turner Broadcasting and its affiliates for any and all expenses incurred during the response to today’s incidents.”
Okay…first off buddy… Please get the fear mongering penis out of your ass. Second, quit thinking our society is filled with a bunch of cattle that can’t think for themselves. Other cities had the same devices, and no one freaked out.
The best thing for people to do is to regain their sense of humor and stop being so damn scared. No one has to bomb us again - the job is done. We are weaker as a nation for the fear we carry.
Me? I thought they were funny, and I am sure I would think it was a joke if I saw one - rather than think some terrorist with a sense of humor was out to blow me up.

You know, that’s the worst part is that the gov’t. thinks that by scaring us, we’re claiming our independence but by having all these strict-ass rules (like on planes) we are actually just letting “them” - whomever you want to cal the bad people - win. They have already gotten us so out of whack that they’re winning. I sometimes get so pissed off about this that I want to leave the country. But alas, we still have it pretty darn good here.

I think the erosion of our civil liberties, and vilifying Islamic people in our own country has done wonders for our country. *sarcasm*
We used to be the country of possibility, and now we spend so much time looking over our shoulders or trying to repair the soldiers who were hurt in the war (and we should be doing a lot more than we are) that we can’t focus on the future.
I’ve thought about moving to Canada. I hear it’s lovely.
