NYC Car Bomb Scare

http://www.cnn.com/2010/CRIME/05/02/...ex.html?hpt=T1


Was watching a live stream of times square last night. Was crazy to see it completely dead because police closed off a large section of it.

Saw it on Foxnews. There has to be some video footage of the guy running away from the failure so they can ID him.

It may not be in that article, but I've read it today on the internets.

Sounds like some idiot made the bomb. Consisted of plastic gas cans with gasoline, a package full of M-80 firecrackers, and 3 cans of propane.

I read there was a certain amount of a material that resembled fertilizer in there too.

Looks like they changed the article the link went to. Previously it stated a military unit that screens militant websites had a video where a spokesman for the Pakistan Taliban said the bomb was in retaliation of us killing their leaders a few weeks back.

Great...I can't wait for MSNBC to try and blame it on the Tea Party then.

One theory is that this was parked really close to Comedy Centrals HQ and that it was retaliation for the South Park Mohammed Teddy Bear episode.
