The "Art" of Bombmaking
An artist in Brooklyn has decided to create a rather explosive piece for a display at the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council right before September 11. And what is this "art" that he is creating? A
suitcase bomb. That's right, he is creating a fully functional suitcase bomb complete with remote detonation cell phone trigger.
Of course, it could be truly inert: Mr. Hackett’s bomb could be a conceptual hoax. On display, the suitcase, he said, will be open to afford a view of its workings; whether it is truly operational, as he claims, is something only he will know. It will probably not, as the artist joked, have “a big red ‘Do Not Push!’ button.”
And that, as far as I'm concerned, is the only thing that will keep him from getting arrested immediately. As it is, I still think the police should test it and if it's live, he should be locked up.

If there is any text associated with the work it will be in all capital letters no doubt. The tells of the troll post never change.

Where is Ascroft? We need him back. Suitcase bomb building in NY. Can we grow some brains and balls on Alberto? Why has Bush become so close to the ACLU the last 9 months? Get the London cops and shoot the SOB! There have always been limits on "free speech".

Perhaps there is a chance that the thing will really work and will blow the bastard up. Keep hope alive!

God I hate these talentless hacks who call themselves artists. Adolph Hitler was an artist you know. Well, he painted watercolors, and not too bad either, but he didn't get into art school so he had a hissy and murdered millions of people. And he was a vegetarian. And a big mama's boy who hated his father. Typical liberal. But I digress. Can't someone in the Rotten Apple have this guy whacked?
