So no wonder he didn't figure out that it was HIS device the bomb squad was dealing with. Please . . . it's not like everybody and his brother are busy fixing devices to the I-93 overpass near Sullivan Square. Vanilla Rasta knew exactly what the cops were there for, and he thought it was so funny/cool he videotaped it so he could be a bigshot in the "video artist" (i.e. bonesmuggling) community.
I hope these two pieces of shi'ite see the inside of Concord MCI for a stretch.
"Vanilla Rasta knew exactly what the cops were there for,"
I can't know what he was thinking and I don't believe you can either.
If I placed something I thought was cool advertising somewhere, then three weeks later, there is some sort of hubbub about a bomb, why would I assume the flap was about my blinking sign?
If Vanilla Rasta (like that I do) had intentionally planted something that a rational person would see as a dangerous device (which would meet the definition of hoax) then maybe he would have thought, Oh hey, I think the bomb squad has been fooled by my "device".
Let's say you leave an LED lightstick (like a Streetlight) under a bench when you are at an outdoor, nighttime event, then later you hear that the park is cordoned off and is being evacuated. You'd think, it MUST be my lightstick, right? In case you have never seen one here's a link:
