Absolutely they did! Granted, Warner's judgment wasn't the best, and the execution was flawed. However, I am appalled at the overblown and unprofessional reaction by law enforcement to a harmless marketing ploy.
All they needed to do was confiscate the boards and just look at them rationally to realize there was no threat. But with the all-out SWAT response, they just gave military intelligence to anyone who might be interested as to exactly how to paralyze a U.S. city.
Fortunately the response of we the people has been much more mature and fearless. I'm sick to death of this BS "post 9/11 world" crap and fear mongering by our own government against us. Enough already!

that is coming from a Leafs fan. i think of that is been a nicely performed series no longer as lots hate like the habs and sens yet basically good hockey. Toronto's probability is slender appropriate now yet Toronto has performed nicely those previous 2 video games and that is activities no longer something is certain, although that is looking good for Boston. They shouldn't get too snug although inspite of the certainty that that is 3-a million that is been an intensive series, anythings a risk. besides the fact that occurs i'm pleased with Toronto's season, Toronto wasn't assume to win this series and that i think of there putting up an excellent combat and that i'm hoping Boston followers supply Toronto some comprehend. a pair years in the past or perhaps final 3 hundred and sixty 5 days this series may well be a sweep outscoring us 20-2 however the video games are close. besides the fact that occurs that is been a relaxing series yet Toronto basically does not have surprisingly much as good of a team as Boston appropriate now:)

No. What happens when the police do take one of these pranks lightly and it is the real thing. Everyone would be posting questions on here about "how could this happen". In this day and age, who is that dumb to put anything that even remotely looks like a bomb on a city bridge?

i say no. the police acted quickly and took appropriate action.
however, the LOSERs involved in this prank deserve to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Law enforcement officers may have pulled away from real life crimes that could have never happened if they were patrolling their areas of assignment.

I think you're wrong. What if it would have been the real thing, and they acted slow. You'd be the first one jumping up and down saying "where were the cops?".
Google Search???!!!!! If those were real IED's who the hell would have time to look it up on Google. Wise up!
Yeah, that's the first thing everyone should do.....Oh Look...Is that a bomb?? could it be a prank???? Gee....lets go look it up, while we neglect public safety...Real Smart.
Some of you people better put the bong down and wake up to the fact that this is a dangerous world, and it's full of people who want to kill ALL Americans.

A google search on the old computer would have given them sufficient information to know it was a stunt and had been staged in other cities as well.

you would think that the city officials would've told them these signs were placed all over the city....in the end, it was just a practice for if something life-threatening WAS placed in boston. at least they did their job.

well, if u saw it on abc the two guys they arrested were pretty psycho. one guy with HUGE dreads and creepy smile, the other was bouncing and waving as he walked. just a little...unstable. police can't afford to take chances with strange electronic devices put up all over a city....they could be anything. they're just doing their job, you know...but maybe it was a little too much blowing some of the robot things up!

I agree. I think theyre way overreacting but I guess some people can't take a joke without flipping out.
