Not as big of morons as the "public officials" that mistook a lite brite for an bomb.

And if it HAD been a bomb, would you be calling the "public officials" morons for not doing anything?

In the post 9/11/2001 world that most of us live in, pranks like this are about as funny as yelling "Allah Akbar" in an airplane. Unless you are a 9/10 kinda person...

Oh c'mon... quit seeing terrorist threats in everything. This was guerrilla marketing that was blown WAY out of proportion by the media, and especially Fox News.

IF, IF, IF.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda.

Any Maroon could see that this WAS NO BOMB!

I will drop kick anyone who goes into hysterics when they see something like this and conclude it might be a bomb.

Then I'll incite bystanders to laugh them into so much shame the idiot seriously considers suicide.

"pranks like this are about as funny as yelling "Allah Akbar" in an airplane."

They had other stuff like that planned. Among the stunts were: young men in "suicide vests on trains and buses, white powder being sent to people in the media and jets with the cartoon logo flying close to buildings.

Am I the last person in advertising left who has any freakin common sense?

Only a moron would think that a terrorist is going to plant a bomb in something small that is meant to be conspicuos, and too high up to cause any casualties.

Terrorist will use trucks and vehicles, or at the very least a backpack. When the terrorist strike here they are going to use nukes anyhow, and there is not going to be any neon.

"Ahhhh...Achmed!....Our next bomb we have planted will have "litebrite" front on it! Foolish americans will walk past and laugh!"

I'm not kidding here.
