" if you saw a light up Bart Simpson on a wall, would you freak out? "

I may be just an old fuddy-duddy, but it seems to me that there's some kind of qualitative difference between "seeing a light-up Bart Simpson on a wall" and simultaneous phoned-in reports to police regarding "suspicious packages" being found....

The "suspicious packages" were light up cartoon characters.
