Give Me a Flippin' Break...Err the Terrorist??

OK, so we've got little Lite-Brite looking displays of Ignignokt and Err, a couple of Duracell batteries, and a city is brought to its knees?? And now there's been one arrest (I believe for an unrelated suspicious device), and Boston's Mayor is considering what legal action should be taken against Cartoon Network?

At what point did we dive over the precipice into the pool of complete cluelessness?

1. Hell, even I knew that was Err, from Aqua Teen Hunger Force. And since Adult Swim's audience conveniently dovetails with a much sought-after voting block these days, maybe elected officials shouldn't be demonstrating exactly how out of touch they are with that demographic.

2. If Boston's finest can be completely baffled by a Lite-Brite, I'm afraid.

3. Bottom line is that Boston looks stupid, and in grand new millenium tradition, it's got to be someone else's fault. Instead of just saying, "Oops," they're going to roast Cartoon Network. I'm not a fan of Ted Turner's by any means, but this is just ridiculous.

We can't pull suspicious people off of airplanes because they are of Middle Eastern descent, but we can flame a network because we overreacted to displays that had been there for weeks?


Frankly, I think they were just profiling - Ignignokt and Err are Mooninites.
