This is just too easy for those who would disrupt our lives.
I’m surprised these things aren’t happening even more.

Suspicious Packages?
Isn't that the name of the new gay bar across the street from the Ground Zero Mosque?

Death by a 1000 cuts.
Place harmless packages near various transportation hubs, energy facilities or places of business thereby distributing commerce as much as possible.
Watch the great satan run around in circles trying to catch his tail while spending vast amounts of resources in panic mode.

Nope.
The new gay bar, across from the Ground Zero Mosque, is going to be called “Bottoms Up”.

Thing is, here in San Francisco there really is a bar called the Bottoms Up and I just assumed they would franchise.
