Hysteria!

That is really all you can call it. Hysteria. The people of the USA have become a bunch of hysterical chicken littles. When an ad campaign can shut a city down, something is wrong. The article quoted the Massachusetts Governer as follows:

Gov. Deval Patrick praised the response of law enforcement and said that he was "dismayed to learn that many of the devices are a part of a marketing campaign by Turner Broadcasting."

"This stunt has caused considerable disruption and anxiety in our community. I understand that Turner Broadcasting has purported to apologize for this. I intend nonetheless to consult with the attorney general and other advisors about what recourse we may have," Patrick said.

I have a suggestion. Tell the folks in Boston to get their head out of their ass. Wake up, Nobody makes bombs with LED figures on them. They use explosives. Have we become such a nation of dumbasses that we piss in our pants everytime we see something that we have not seen before.
