The Perfect Charge For Hoaxes!
Fark provides a link to a story in the
Washington Post about some
artists who, metaphorically, paraded around looking like nutjobs in front of the U.S. Capitol.
Buried in the story is this nugget:
Although the objects under the duct tape turned out to be harmless, Olaniyi and Patel have been charged with interstate transportation of an explosive device, a charge that can be used in a hoax.
And, apparently, in situations where
no explosive devices exist. Unless, of course, the explosive device in question is their van.
Luckily for the kids in Casinoport, they didn't cross any lines with their chickens-in-a-box devices.
