You are most ridiculous! Obviously, a bomb would be concealed from it's purpose. You wouldn't notice it dumb-ass.

Well, this won't be decided by me or you, you lovely person.

This will be decided by a jury of twelve Bostonians, sworn and true. They will apply the "reasonable man" test, and decide whether or not they think these devices meet that test.

I'll be happy with whatever they decide. That's the way the system works, you lovely, lovely person.

You are the winner there - shades of the Massachusetts witch trials, I'm sure the offenders will be hung. You idiots.

Actually, based on the words of the judge at arraignment, it's far more likely this will never see a jury. If the morons in the prosecutor's office insist on trying to hang these guys, the judge who buys the case will dismiss for LoE and failure to pass any intelligent person's concept of reasonableness as soon as the prosecution rests - As he should.

I think it's far more likely they'll be pled out to thirty-eight counts of littering or advertising without a license. Turner will pay their fines and the whole incident will be swept quietly under the rug.

And the poor citizens of Boston will never live down the failure of their mayor and police force to act in a rational manner.

Kind of pathetic, really.

Col Sanders
