The Mooninites assault Boston:
The scare forced bomb units to scramble across Boston all day. The "devices" were actually magnetic lights which resemble a character on the show "Aqua Teen Hunger Force", on Turner Broadcasting's Cartoon Network.
[...]
"Aqua Teen Hunger Force" is a cartoon with a cultish following that airs as part of the Adult Swim late-night block of programs for adults on the Cartoon Network. A feature length film based on the show is slated for release March 23.
The surreal series centers on a talking milkshake (Master Shake), fries (Frylock) and a meatball (Meatwad).
The cartoon also includes two trouble-making, 1980s-graphic-like characters called "mooninites," named Ignignokt and Err -- who were pictured on the suspicious devices. They are known for making the obscene hand gesture depicted on the devices.

It looks like there is all kinds of testing, testing, testing going on.

How could they find so many hoax bombs so quickly? That says a lot about the alert level of the passers by. Or were there also threats phoned in?

Welcome to John Kerry's America

Hate to see this happen, but could it be the libs are reaping what they sowed?
To: Bushbacker1
It's going to be hard to dismiss this many.

I hate to sound like a conspiracy nutjob but it happened on the same day London police thwarted a planned attack.
Coincidence? I dunno....
To: Bushbacker1
Shep says that the BPD says they are "hooks devices."
What is that?
To: jdm
It seems like it's always Boston, doesn't it?
Liberalville! Like I said before, the libs are reaping what they've sown!

Exactly. in this case "hoax" = "practice".
To: theanonymouslurker
Perhaps. Or maybe trying to create a "cry wolf" scenario so the next real incident won't be taken seriously.
To: Semper Vigilantis
Not only practicing, but testing the system to observe how long it took to be reported, and what happened when it was. Terrorists can learn a lot from this, and with all the news coverage detailing the responses, this is an effective "dry run" for both the US authorities and the terrorists.

According to FOX one of the packages contained a photo of a guy flipping off the authorities.

Do Islamists use the bird sign? Don't think I've ever seen one flip somebody off.
To: txflake
With muslims the bottom of the feet is offensive for some reason.
To: Kimberly
What I heard on CNN is the circuit board LIT UP with a SMILEY FACE and the a MIDDLE FINGER as flipping one off.
To: Howlin; All
Shep on Fox keeps talking about "stoners"....
Can anyone clue me in on who or what these are?
To: BurbankKarl
The PD scanner broadcasts live calls from citizens?
Maybe this isn't a hoax or a test. Startin to worry.
To: Recovering_Democrat
Thank God this is just a simple law enforcement issue /kerry.
To: theanonymouslurker
Apparently islamos have a decent support infrastructure in Boston and at Logan.
