TWO "BOMBS" ON TONIGHT'S NEWS!!!

[trof]

1. A couple of kids lit a string of firecrackers at our local high school.
OK, given Columbine, et al, people were diving for cover.
Sure it was a dumb thing to do in today's atmosphere of fear, fear, fear.
The two kids have been arrested for "possible terrorist threatening" something-or-other.
I didn't even know our town had a law on the books for "possible terrrorist threatening".
Be careful what you say.
:-(

2. Somebody put a cherry bomb, or some kind of high-powered firecracker, in a rural mailbox.
Gee, I don't know ANYBODY who's ever done anything like that.
;-)
And they showed the new mailbox the victim had mounted.
With the address.
Hmm....
Would ANY pranksters wann target THAT box now?
Naw.
SURELY not.
:evilgrin:

Our local nitely newz led with these.
"If it bleeds (or makes a very loud or "explosive" noise) it leads."
jeez
:-(

1. The terrorists have won and/or America has gone crazy.

Not that I condone what they did, but whatever happened to "kids will be kids"? Those are teenage pranks, not terra-ist acts for gawd's sake.

2. Geez, what state are you in?
