    Sometimes the lack of people's judgment simply amazes me.  There are simply some things you NEVER EVER joke about. 

    You never stand in a crowded place and yell "fire" when there is none.  And you never joke/or get 'artsy' about a bomb.

    Because people get scared.  Because not everyone listens.  Because people panic when they get scared.  Because people can have heart attacks and do stupid stuff when they get THAT scared and panicked.

    It astounds me when people like this guy (and the stupid teacher who completely turned idiot and allowed students in a radical country to name a frigging TEDDY BEAR something that was obviously to any moron **offensive**) show absolutely not one ounce of anything that could remotely be considered 'good judgment'.

    And the concept of moral responsibility -- nah ... too much like "common sense".

    And why DO they call it "common" sense when it's so darned UN-common??? sheesh

    What is frightening, even moreso than this incident, is that his OCAD profile lists one of his favourite artists as Adolf Hitler and his favourite work of art as being the destruction of the WTC.  Disturbing stuff.
