You're the Mayor of a large city, and you get a chance to hit Ted Turner for $1 Billion? Yes you're stupid if you don't!

[Bernard]

Good thing it didn't look like the Teletubby with a TV antenna on its head. Barney Frank would have had to throw himself on the detonation.

Suddenly there's were a lot of liberal Bostonians who had to admit that the threat of terrorism isn't overblown. Even if they won't admit it to anyone but themselves.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but Boston abuses the privilege.

Well, Ted Turner has it half-right.

He entered his show in the absolutely-proper market for his brainless, juvenile, late-night "adult cartoon show" beamed specifically at moronic insomniac Democrats, retarded stay-at-home, sleep-in welfare recipients and sophomoric Hahvahd professorial intellectuals.

What? Is LA #2?

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Get serious. Just for a minute...get serious. Then use your brain for something else besides a lint trap for your mouth.

Is Boston that stupid?

Hmmm... let's see...

Boston returns Ted Kennedy and John Kerry to the US Senate every six years...

Boston has three of the dumbest Congressmen on Earth...

Boston refuses to issue gun permits to the law-abiding while coddling minority thugs who are "victims of racism"...

Just re-elected for the third time Papa Tom, Mayor for Life...

Has the worst road system of any large US city after having spent $18,000,000,000 of your money to put its highway system underground... the system now leaks so badly that the US Coast Guard requires every car using the tunnel to carry a flotation device for every car's occupants...

The former speaker of the MA state house and the former president of the MA state senate are both convicted felons; one is the brother of one of the FBI's Ten Most Wanted...

Hey Bob... I suggest that you be the one to get up close and personal to determine if that package attached to a bridge support is a bomb or not...

And what exactly would a remotely detonated bomb look like? Try to remember that during the afganistan war, the soviets actually made plastic explosive "toys" for children to find and play with, killing scores of small children.

You simply can't make assumptions the way you did in your article. On the other hand, you go right ahead, if you'll be the one leading the way. That way, you'll be the first one killed.

Bob you absolutely nailed it!

Here's another excellent analysis, by noted security expert Bruce Schneier.

Is Boston that stupid?

Yes. I have said it for years.
