Geez... my faith in our Security Services is just growing greater with each passing showerhead.

[green iguana]

Barney Fife in charge of security there?

[cmsgop]

Don't Misunderestimate a Miscommunication !!!

[cgk]

6 different tests coming back positive for C4 means it's all a mistake? Is this some kind of dumb joke?

Sprinkler parts could have many uses in the terrorism handbook if that is really what they are/were.

Dry run.

[John Jorsett]

We need to find out who's making sprinklers out of C4 and make them stop.

[Diddle E. Squat]

Kooks greatly saddened. But of course this is a conspiracy/coverup, because paranoids 100 miles away munching on tinfoil while typing know the actual contents of the package, as opposed to the responding bomb squad.

"She floats, she must be a witch!"

[beltfed308]

Miami-Dade County police bomb squad determined it contained sprinkler parts

These guys should be in the detective squad.

Best to use an abundance of caution.

With all the jitteriness today in NYC, New Jersey, Austin, and Miami, I think the Feds and Homeland Security have received some valid threats lately, and are doing their best to forestall an attack.

Give them credit. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

"The package was initially tested six times, and each time it came back positive for the military-grade explosive known as C4, the Coast Guard said."

This boggles the mind. Are the plastics in sprinklers made with C4 in them? Or are the recycling plastic explosive material into sprinklers?

[El Gato]

Why were they loading sprinkler parts onto a cruise ship in the first place? No lawns to water in the middle of the ocean you know.

A ship might have fire sprinklers, but I would think that would be a package they were expecting.

Six positive tests for C4 is still troubling.

[idkfa]

Plastic explosive in a pipe bomb made of sprinkler piping?

[Deo volente]

Why are sprinkler parts being loaded onto a cruise ship?

Do they have a golf course on that ship that needs watering?

[Rick.Donaldson]

A safe package, containing sprinkler parts was senselessly destroyed today when chemical checks continued to misidentify some unknown residue as pertaining to the explosive "C-4". Senseless. Just horribly senseless.....

[UWconservative]

This is totally embarrassing. The terrorists can shut down our ports, and tank our markets by planting sprinkler heads.

Do we have Maxwell Smart and Inspector Clouseau running our port security?

[Waco]

Just gonna have to let em blow up Miami so's the talking heads will be happy on Sunday. The talking heads won't mind losing a few family members either, don't worry.

[OESY]

Was it a sitzsprinkler that was destroyed?

[Petruchio]

Were yesterday & today security probes??? Does thos mean Port of Miami is a future target???

[bondjamesbond]

SHOWER TIME!

[freeperfromnj]

Sprinkler parts! Now this is what I call a real "shower" story.
