Aqua Teen Art 'Terrorist' Describes His Ordeal

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the funny-is-in-the-eye-of-the-beholder dept.

destinyland writes "Boston police arrested artist 'Zebbler' for installing L.E.D. devices that promoted Aqua Teen Hunger Force (after police mistook them for bombs). He's finally shared the real behind-the-scenes story about his arrest and release. He describes his interrogation ('My interrogator gave me nothing but carrots to eat') and remembers a surreal exchange with a police officer. ('My daughter is a huge fan of you ... So, did you really mean to blow up Boston?') Now his latest project is a cool high-definition/surround sound installation for an event called RIP.MIX.BURN.BAM.PFA."

    According to most slashdotters, unless it were to actually explode then your concerns are completely invalid and unwarranted. Furthermore, any official which takes actions to address a legitimate concern should be fired.

    When posting on slashdot you need to remember the following rules:
    1. If it didn't explode, it's not a bomb - including explosives which didn't explode.
    2. Caring for public safety is not your job. Your job is to complain about those that keep you safe.
    3. Terrorists don't exists. Bombs have never been exploded in terrorists actions on U.S. soil or any other country for that matter. Therefore, anyone who thinks they have found a bomb is worse than those supposed terrorists.
    4. The less you actually know about laws, law enforcement, bombs, bomb tactics, terrorists, and suicide bombers, the more vocal you should be to complain and condemn those that do know. Failure to follow this rule means you're a pooh-pooh-head and your karma will be negatively effected accordingly.

    Let the karma bombings begin...
