Lawyer: Fake Bomb Charge an Overreaction

BOSTON - The MIT student who walked into Logan International Airport wearing a computer circuit board and wiring on her sweat shirt claimed it was harmless artwork. But to troopers who arrested her at gunpoint, it was a fake bomb.

Nineteen-year-old Star Simpson was charged Friday with possessing a hoax device. Her attorney described the charge as offbase and "almost paranoid," arguing at a court hearing that she did not act in a suspicious manner and had told an airport worker that the device was art.

If you don't agree with shooting 19 year old girls on sight, then please, so we can all hear it, denounce all who would call for such an action

Since I am a liar, it will be a very simple issue for you to prve it by the simple act of issuing a positive statement denouncing those that believe 19 year old American college girls should be shot on sight if they fall under police suspicion for being a terrorist.

re: # 439

I never said, nor even hinted at any such thing.

Many here have. I denounced them for it. Instead of also denouncing them, you denounce me. Noy until you got snotty with me.

If you don't agree with shooting 19 year old girls on sight, then please, so we can all hear it, denounce all who would call for such an action as the immoral and unconstitutional cretins that they are. Just who the hell do you think you are? Whom I denounce, for what and when, is none of your damned business. So try dictating to me what I will post about or to whom I will direct my remarks.

Then we can move forward with addressing any substantive disagreements you and I may have.

I gave up a long time ago, trying to discuss the subject of the thread with you. I asked you one simple question, which you did not answer; you got snotty with me, and that took care of the discussion part of things.

Like the word "gay," liberals have ruined another perfectly good word. Modern art is the longest running joke in human history. I call myself a professional illustrator because the word "artist" has become totally debased.

Lock her up. The sooner she gets hit with reality, the better off she'll be.

re: # 440

And you, of course, are an expert on that, too?

If I were you I would never ever presume that there is some subject on which someone of FR does not know an awful lot more than you. 1. You are not me and I don't need any advice from a snotnose like you.

2. Please quote EXACTLY my post wherein I ever even hinted that I "presume that there is some subject on which someone of FR does not know an awful lot more than you." You know, you have a fantastic imagination. You're full of sh*t, but you have a fantastic imagination. Where do you dredge up all of these things that you accuse me of saying or thinking????

It is not your place to tell me what to do, you arrogant clod, nor whom to take to task for anything. So why don't you stop making an ass of yourself trying to do it?p>
