Hahah, that's great.

And wtf @ people taking it seriously?

The thing that is disturbing is not people "taking it seriously", but that the city of Boston threw the two accused in jail (they posted bond) and is attempting to pin felony charges on them with prison time associated.

The charges in question require an intent to cause panic.  I see no way any reasonable person would come to that conclusion and seriously attempt to prosecure without a complete disregard for how our justice system is supposed to work.

One can only hope that the judge and jury involved are not so obviously dead-set on trying to abuse the criminal justice system to cover up (or at least direct blame away/attention from) the city's obvious incompetence.

I'm just surprised that the two haven't been labled "enemy combatants" and shipped off to Guantanamo yet at this rate...

If I were the two accused, I'd grab myself a really expensive lawyer, then attempt to switch the charges around on the Boston police for causing panic. They're much more guilty than the ones involved with the advertising.

I have a feeling the CEO was planning to resign sometime soon anyways. I doubt anyone would leave for such a thing.
