10. Oh noes!!!!!111!! ORANGE ALERT! DEPENDS ALERT!

[marmar]

5. They often come up with something like this near the holidays

as if a terrorist really cares about Thanksgiving, but I suppose it's a good symbolic time or something

17. WTF?? They are predicting the future.

It was unclear if Bloomberg was home at the time. His only public appearance was a 7:30 p.m. news conference at City Hall.

WTF? They can't use tenses?

[dixiegrrrrl]

8. So, he is not even AT his house, to greet all his "guests"?????

[SomethingFishy]

6. "SQUIRREL!" n/t

9. +1

11. He's gonna use Terra!! Terra!! Terra!! (TM) to end protests, citing USA PATRIOT Act.

That's my prediction.

12. In all fairness....

....the OWS is terrorizing the bloom right off his bloomers.

[Bluenorthwest]

13. All apologies, but NYC has been a fearful, weak, nasty place

since 9-11 and Bloomberg as Rudy Two. OWS is the first thing to make NYC seem alive and lived in since they all hid their heads in the sand so long ago.
I'm sure Bloomberg dreams of another threat, so that he has reason to shove the city back into perpetual fear. Anything to get rid of those drums!

[flamingdem]

14. Here's the video of the drum circle today, I'd love to see NY go back to normal

Guliani and Bloomberg made it safe for yuppies and reduced NYC soul by 50% as prices went up accordingly

18. NYT: Man Arrested and Charged in Bomb Plot

http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/11/20/man-arrested-in-bid-to-kill-government-workers-with-bomb-officials-say/?hp

The authorities have arrested a man who law enforcement officials believe was planning to build and detonate a bomb in New York with government workers, returning military personnel and elected officials as the target, a person briefed on the case said on Sunday.

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly of the New York Police Department, and Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr. were expected to announce the charges against the man at 7:30 p.m. at a news conference at City Hall.

19. It sounds like a weak threat, it used "Christmas lights" as detonator

commentator says: hmm they have been monitoring him for 2 years and why come out with it now...

I think the drum circle and OWS got to him and the police were looking very bad to the public
so scare the bejeebus out of them is the usual solution

[Pharaoh]

21. Terror!!!!!!!!!!!

Boy is that getting old! :popcorn:

[City Lights]

20. Is he gonna call himself out?

Fascist thug.

[blkmusclmachine]

22. Who gets to define what a "terrorist" is?

Welcome to post-9/11 America. They didn't give themselves all those new, post-9/11 laws to NOT use them, y'know?
