New Poll: Rucksack Paranoia

This ad appeared in the London Metro free commuter newspaper on July 22nd. Uploader megpickard noted that it was “unbelievably crass.”

Not only that, but it’s not big enough to hold all the “High rise ‘workers’ special’ smoke hoods” left over from 9/11. Plus, it’s way too small to hold a roll of duct tape, which not only seals windows and doors against smoke, gas, radioactive dust and biotoxins, but doubles as a handy restraint system for “violent extremists” whose plastic food containers full of explosives fail to explode. Darn those former terrorists and their faulty DIY bombs!

Meanwhile, the New York Times and other papers advise it’s only a matter of time before suicide bombers strike in the U.S. again (something I’ve been saying ever since London 7/7).

In light of all this, there’s a new poll up in the right-hand column. Everyone, please advise how you would probably respond in case of an “extremist action” (formerly known as a “terrorist attack”).
