    And this is an MIT student....wow.....how fucking dumb can you get?

    An MIT student with a fake bomb strapped to her chest was arrested at gunpoint today at Logan International Airport and later claimed it was artwork, officials said.

    Star Simpson, 19, had a computer circuit board and wiring in plain view over a black hooded sweat shirt she was wearing, said State Police Maj. Scott Pare, the commanding officer at the airport.


    and

    Simpson was “extremely lucky she followed the instructions or deadly force would have been used,” Pare said. “She’s lucky to be in a cell as opposed to the morgue.”

    Gobsmacked.

    And if they had shot her, the outcry about over-zealous cops and/or airport security would be drowning out the Jena 6 busybodies.

    Uh, Hondo, I don't think so.

    Busybodies?

    Is that what you called those involved in the Selma to Montgomery civil rights march?

    Were you all for "states rights"?

    Though I don't think it would drown out what's going on in Jena, there absolutely would have been holy hell to pay if they had shot and killed this idiot. And yes, the little MIT brainiac bitch is a fucking idiot of the highest order. Artwork my fucking ass. Talking about an attention whore.

    Throw the fucking book at her and anybody who helped her with her "artwork".

    QB, I'm not sure. I mean if anyone "deserved" it, she's a prime candidate.

    And I'm usually on the other side of this argument.

    I mean, it's idiotic beyond belief. It's as if she just landed from another planet.

    Remember, this is the same city where a couple of rasta heads with LightBrights brought traffic to a standstill while the cops figured out what they were.
