fox is doing a report on it right now.
They claim their 2 big concerns were the middle finger and the battery packs size, and that apparently a pipe bomb went off near one of them.
i just heard post 9/11.
Boston, you're stupid.
The guy who got arrested also looks like a coked out dracula.
I wish there was some way we could get this across to them.
Some way that the internet can express to the fine city just how ridiculous they acted.
I can understand SOME precautions. Seeing an odd piece of electronics on a bridge support does deserve reasonable caution. I don't fault anybody for that.

The city completely overreacted.
This patriot act, homeland security, bullshit they are pulling now is ridiculous. Go after Time Warner for godsake if you want someone in trouble, the kid who worked on it was just doing his job.
I love living here, but from Romney to Patrick to Menino this state is run by Morons.
Our government in general is out of fucking control.Quote:
