Everything about this incident makes my brain twitch and scream. This country needs to pull its head out of its ass and figure out what is important and what isn't. Shampoo on airplanes isn't a threat. Lite Brite cartoon characters hung around the city aren't a threat. Calling out Turner Broadcasting and Cartoon Network and all of them for endangering a city and shutting it down is juvenile at best, and ignorant at worst.
If I were a terrorist or a terrorist sympathizer, I would be laughing my balls off at the level of idiocy the US has descended to. People are looking to be scared and looking to be reassured that they're safe. Watching bomb squads dealing with these "devices" is laughable, as anyone who has ever watched Adult Swim will gladly tell you. It wasn't reckless. It wasn't dangerous. It was different and clever.
I'd quote from Dune, but will already did it.
