Boston receives threat from Dirty Bomb: ABC radio news

[1Old Pro]

Just heard, apparently police are out in force after hearing of the threat

Cover exposed skin (like you wouldn't in that weahter) and take a serious shower when you get home, anyway.

Segregating your clothing in a plastic bag would be wise.

Just in case.

[Cheetah1]

Nuke who? Yeah that is a great idea. We should go around nuking people.

Some of you people need a life. Regarding the immediate posts when new information is released.

We all have the same sources!!

I do have a life. I was just making a comment....

[Fruitbat]

well a 'dirty' bomb won't vaporize ya...sorry.

if something like this is true....we need to vaporize the whole friggin middle east.....then drill through the 'glass' and take the friggin oil......

enough with this compassion crap already.....

Might as well check the local mosques for clues/details!

[Darkwolf377]

What an idiotic comment. I wouldn't wish a bomb to go off anywhere in this country, even in the livingroom fo someone I hate. Jokes are fine, but saying you wish a bomb would go off in a town because of the school system--as in little kids?

Nothing wrong with gallow's humor, but the divisive stuff sucks.

"The US deploys radiation detectors at every border point making importation of radioactive material very difficult."

Not exactly. Our southern border is still hemorrhaging.

Lawrence is the poster child for what is wrong with liberalism and the welfare state.

Don't forget Lawrence's stint as the arson capital of the country in the early-90's!

I miss those frozen slogs from South Station to Downtown Crossing in the freezing rain and snow! Moved to California and it is 65 and sunny today!

sludge and chemicals in the Charles/Harbor

Actually, the Charles has been dramatically cleaned up.

Plus, unless you have a lot of shielding, authorities looking for a large assemblage of nuclear material in a general area should be able to detect it pretty easily.

Thanks for the info!

The source said there is speculation the caller may have been ripped off by illegal immigrants he helped over the border and is now trying to exact revenge.

Jeez, I hope it's a false alarm, but that explanation just sounds wacky to me.

"after a man calling from Mexico told California police that he smuggled two Iraqis and four Chinese over the border.... "

[Blood of Tyrants]

The liberals have already said that this is no big deal and an acceptable level of terrorism.

[Beckwith]

Same here in Pittsburgh except for our new cover of snow!

Oh boy! The Patriots love nasty weather.

[Alia]

No Kidding! BTW, I thought last MOnday's episode was outstanding!! 24 did a superb job of showing the terrorist -- what must have gone through his mind -- before he committed suicide.

Massachusetts Emergency Services have been placed on standby.

Some nuisance, eh Jean Francois?

[Charlotte Corday]

A sufficiently large number of public false alarms will be as damaging as a single real event.

[TexKat]

Lol!!!
