You're spot on Mauricio. The Boston prosecutor's office is out of its freaking gourd charging this dude with felonious perpetration of a hoax. WHAT WAS THE HOAX??? It was a lite brite of a cartoon character! Is the neon sign above my neighborhood bar a hoax too? What a crock! Bostonians need to extract the corncobs from their bums. "Hoax" must be the scapegoat word of the day in the Boston Municipal Government building. The FBI and Boston police's disproportionate response is to blame. They blew up an LED sign attached to a battery? WTF? I thought these people had bomb sniffing dogs and exposive detection devices. The FBI knew darn well what these things were, but they dragged it out to TERRORIZE the country for a few hours. Chertoff is the real criminal.
