If 2 of them already went off already, we're obvisouly not dealing with the Talibal-qaeda here...

When the culprits are caught, do they get tried as terrorists even if they are a bunch of white teenagers?

Hope so. Bombs on train tracks is a pretty huge deal imo.

of course not, everyone knows each and every terrorist is of Middle Eastern decent!

using green text for sarcasm is like telling somebody the punchline before you say the joke.

agreed, part of the entertainment of sarcasm is watching it go straight over some peoples heads, on occasion, even your own. As soon as you slap it in green text it starts to seem forced and no longer as funny.

I thought it was a good system. Any better ideas?
Who came up with the green text anyway?

Why would anyone even do such a thing? What could you possibly get out of doing that?

well I can completley understand why someone would do that kind of thing. By doing it they could have proof what they said was meant in sarcasm so people shouldnt get on their case about what they said

Uh...I think Vena may have been referring to the pipe bomb...But I could be wrong.

I was referring to the bombs themselves, thank you. I get the sarcasm thing. Don't get why someone would leave bombs by a train.

And here is a clear case of why we do need the green text.

You know Im not surprised to hear this happening, its a big city now but I pretty tired of seeing people get off easy for things like this though it remains to be seen if anyone is caught. Start throwing the book at people for these types of crimes rather then setting a bad example as a society in how we let things like this slide.

A couple of years ago some freakoids lit off a pipe bomb beside my son's day care and blew up the paper box. Odds are these kids are just going to end up hurting themselves, and when they do, I'm not going to feel sorry for them.
