AGAIN, and get it stright this time, moron, I never said anything about
a "prank."
When I said teenagers, I was thinking of the Columbine killers.
Their rampage was not a "prank," and they made bombs out of propane
cylinders, just like the Time Square idiot.

Got it this time?
Or will you continue your clumsy LIE?

Gee, you don't suppose it could be due to this guy, among others, could
it?

Lie.
