BTW, can you give me a good reason why we shouldn't treat every newspaper box as a bomb, then? How about treating every cinderblock or abandoned car as a bomb threat?
By your logic, you can't be too careful.

And I answered him

Because its not out of place. If you find a newspaper box duct taped under your car, you should be suspicious. If you find an abandoned car in a secure location, you should be suspicious and NOT dismiss it out of hand. Those devices were out of place and therefore suspicious.
My logic is when things are out of place or appear unusual, it should raise suspicion. YOUR logic is whatever you said about being too careful

I asked him a question:

Is there some sort of memo somewhere that shows you could not hide an explosive device in this manner? Please point me to it. Please show me a list of things we can just dismiss out of hand as being bombs and where this fits on that list. Its a simple request.

And he just ignores it. Better than just ignoring it, he accuses others of not answering questions!
I think its apparent his "argument" is bankrupt. But far be it from that to silence the squeaky wheel.
