Here's how one west coast city delt with them.  

"Portland Police believe 49 signs were placed anonymously around the city. Most appeared on light poles or businesses. Police do not think the signs scared anyone. The Portland bomb squad was never activated."

Holy crap, this is unbelievable.


Look, name calling is a sign of a lost cause. Again, how can you tell what they look like from a phone call?

Looney, weasel, anymore childish comments?

BTW

So I have a link, I guess it must be true eh?

"An advertising executive at Interference Marketing Inc. instructed Peter Berdovsky to keep quiet while police scrambled across the metropolitan area responding to a series of bomb scares. Berdovsky sent an e-mail to friends at 1:25 p.m. telling them not to talk about the marketing scheme to promote the animated television show "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" on the Cartoon Network.

"My boss from the Cartoon Network’s ad agency just called -- she is asking that we pretty please keep everything on the DL," or down low, wrote Berdovsky, according to a copy of the e-mail provided to the Globe."

They deliberately led officials on a wild goose chase, while knowing the panic it was causing.

Do you know how they look?  You asserted that they looked like bombs.  Are you retracting that claim?  

Have you seen a photo of what these looked like?  It doesn't matter what the phone call said (which you originally claimed came from the people who made the advertisement, btw, I notice that you haven't responded to questions about that either),  the first police officer on the scene should have taken one look at it and called the whole thing off.

I'm astonished that you continue to make the unsupportable claim that their histrionic overreaction was in any way in-line with the reality of the situation.

http://www.boston.com/news/globe/city_region/breaking_news/2007/02/guerrilla_ad_ag.html


'Friends of the local artist accused of spearheading Wednesday's bomb scares said he was warned by an executive at a New York guerrilla marketing firm as early as 1:25 p.m. on Wednesday that their advertising campaign had incited panic in Boston.

An advertising executive at Interference Marketing Inc. instructed Peter Berdovsky to keep quiet while police scrambled across the metropolitan area responding to a series of bomb scares."

What else do you need? They knew what was going on, they knew they had caused panic and knew as the panic grew, so would the publicity. It was a deliberate act to cause panic. The proof is in the fact that they new as early as 1:25pm and decided to let the panic play out, and actually emailed the people who planted the devices not so say anything.

Ok, now you will say that I need more proof right?

And again, how do you tell what it looks like from a phone call?
