No, 9/11 has made America extremely paranoid of a terrorist attack.

and I'm sorry but any electronic device placed on a bridge abutment that wasn't placed there by a City/State Worker should raise a flag, No matter WTF it looks like.

The rest of the world that deals with terrorism continues on.
There's bombings CONSTANTLY in Israel but you don't see them freaking out over everything and anything.

Quit acting like this is SOME NEW CRAZY CONCEPT.
Its been around for thousands of years and nobody else was frozen with fear into shutting down cities over it.

All yesterday was was proof that terrorism works. And it works damn well.

I just shake my head at most of the stuff written on this thread.
I can't comment on all of it but I will say one thing.

Maybe those other cities didn't have unpaid people placing those things on bridges, maybe those other cities had sense enough to not do that WTF I bet they put them in more unsuspecting places.... duh
some common sense is lacking in that sad event of yesterday
Yes, terrorists love this kind of reaction, it's a shame this crap goes on

From what I've heard about the LA placements, they're not much different, and they're just as unpaid everywhere as here.

Zounds. Crazy new concept! Street teams! People who put up concert posters/all kinds of other strange promo things/etc. even when the dead were around (but i think those street teams were handing out shrooms maaaaan shrooms and loooooove)! They had STREET TEAMS! waa waa wee wow!

some common sense is lacking in that sad event of yesterday

Think before crying wolf.

How very VERY effective it is.

[Slipknot]

so they put them on bridges in LA also? I don't give a crap if they were paid or unpaid, that makes no difference.

posters don't look suspiciously like some kind of bomb posibly

you must have stock in Turner

9 other cities.

C'mon... nice flat layer of C4 behind a cardboard concert poster? It'd shred people within 20 yards! And how easy would it be to set something like that up on Newbury Street in the middle of the day? Nobody would notice AT ALL.

i wish. its gonna shoot through the roof over this.
