Yup, with all the populated targets in the capitol, a terrorist would really plot to nail the washington monument, lol. :laugh:
 
Yes- by all means, bomb the phallic object that really serves no purpose except to get in the way when I'm trying to take a picture 😛

so it just takes one phone call of "limited credibility" to evac the capital?

Would you rather condemning hundreds of people to die?



of course not. but there has to be a better solution than immediate evac with all the technology and man-power we have.

early reports may be underestimating the seriousness, but in this age of panic, i guess it doesnt take much.

And what technology are you talking about exactly? I am curious.

Looks like some asshat did it as a hoax.
NEW YORK (AFX) - Police in bio-hazard suits responded to an apparent hoax in one of New York?s main transport hubs Friday, further straining public nerves already frayed by the threat of a terrorist attack on the city?s subway system.

Police cordoned off a section of Penn Station after reports of two suspicious items, Police Commissioner Ray Kelly told reporters.

?One was a suspicious package that turned out to be trash, the other was a green bottle. In that bottle was a dye and an acid. It looks like a prank,? Kelly said.
