61. Well, bombers have to commute on mass-transit ,too. Updated at 9:17 AM

It would be in their best interest to cooperate with the "Not a bomb" labeling protocol, or else THEY will be late for work too, due to unnecessary bomb threats.

Putting a "Not a bomb" label on an actual bomb would ruin that whole plan, and eventually inconvenience EVERYONE, including the bombers, who also have places to go and things to do.

1. What if a bomber gets

ahold of the stickers and puts them on real bombs? Contingency plan?

3. The stickers read

"Don't Panic! This is NOT A BOMB. Do not be afraid. Do not call the police. Stop letting the terrorists win." :rofl:
