Following the Boston Marathon bombing last Monday in which pressure cookers were used for the explosion, the cookware giant has decided to temporarily stop selling the items in their Massachusetts stores.
Williams-Sonoma, the specialty retailer of home furnishings and gourmet cookware with over 250 stores in the United States, has pulled pressure cookers from their shelves following the Boston Marathon bombing.
"It's a temporary thing out of respect," said Kent, who is the Store Manager of the Williams-Sonoma at the Natick Mall. He referred Patch to corporate for further questions. Williams-Sonoma also has a local branch at Legacy Place in Dedham.
Pressure cookers will still be available on the Williams-Sonoma website.

Who (under the age of 70) even used pressure cookers anymore?

I'll never buy another thing from Williams-Sonoma! Oh - wait. I don't shop there now...
You'd have to be a little light in the loafers.

Re your comment about stupidity. I had the same reactions. As my grandpa used to say, “Some people don’t have the sense God gave a goose.”

For Years the left has been claiming there were no WMDs in Iraq.
For Years, the weapon of Choice for the Terrorists in Iraq have been IEDs.
Now, Veterans are saying that the Pressure Cooker Bomb is a TYPICAL IED.
The Boston Bomber is being charged with using a WMD to cause murder and mayhem.
That would mean that an IED is a WMD.
But there were NO WMDs in Iraq
Go figure.

I understand that most terrorists refuse to buy their pressure cookers at JCPenney’s due to the company’s support of gay marriage.

It rates right up there with the person calling for more gun control because the terrorists didn’t have gun permits.Damn good thing it wasn’t a pipe bomb... Liberals would be wanting to put a temporary halt on the sales and use of plumbing until the issue could be “reviewed”.

Go ahead. Run up prices on pressure cookers to steal from America even more and kill real conservative families with botulism. We'll use honest market tactics to shut off all demand for your retail businesses and run prices up on items desired by liberaltarian queers in the West and northeast.

If a pressure cooker bomb is considered a “weapon of mass destruction” .....then I guess Bush has been more than vindicated for invading Iraq.

Great work with your
comment #105, Grampa Dave. That comment told us all that we really need to know about Williams-Sonoma's propaganda release.
