Suspicious Packages Found in Dozens of Locations After Bin Ladin Death

Looks like Muslims aren’t thrilled about the justifiable killing of that pedophile degenerate Osama Bin Ladin. From MassLive:

In Massachusetts on Tuesday, there were at least four incidents involving suspicious packages.

An unknown white powder was found in envelopes addressed to Attorney General Martha Coakley and U.S. Sen. Scott Brown in downtown Boston, as well as in an envelope addressed to the court clerk at Greenfield District Court. A similar substance was reportedly found in the John F. Kennedy Federal Office Building in Boston.

Preliminary reports all indicated the substances weren’t dangerous, but further tests are being conducted at state labs.

The Greenfield incident prompted officials to evacuate and close the Franklin County Courthouse Tuesday afternoon. The courthouse later reopened and it was business as usual on Wednesday, according to court personnel.

In New York City, perhaps the most vigilant municipality in the country, a suspicious package report from Times Square came in just as officials at a news conference held at Ground Zero urged the public to remain calm and vigilant in the face of new threats from terrorist groups across the globe.

The New York Police Department moved in quickly and determined the package was only a bag of garbage. But despite the high volume of such reports since Sunday, officials are playing it safe, carefully investigating each incident and hoping for the best.

According to the Associated Press, there were 62 suspicious package reports in the city on Monday, compared to just 18 a week prior when bin Laden was unknowingly living out his last days in a suburb of Parkistan’s capitol city.

More reports mean more running for the police, but NYPD Commissioner Raymond Kelly urged the public to report anything and everything that looks out of the norm.

In downtown Augusta, Georgia, on Tuesday, a United Parcel Service driver alerted authorities after discovering a suspicious package addressed to the president in a mailing drop box. Augusta police secured the scene and the package and turned over the investigation and all evidence to the Secret Service a short time later.

There has been no word as of this report about what was inside that package or what was “suspiciously” written on the return address label.

The Los Angeles Police Department responded to at least two suspicious package reports on Tuesday, including one that shut down a major train line for three hours. Both incidents turned out to be harmless, but served as a reminder that just because bin Laden is dead, the movement he fathered lives on.

In other parts of the country, suspicious package reports closed a road in Nashville, created panic in the heart of Philadelphia and caused the evacuation of a busy neighborhood in San Francisco.

Stay alert out there. h/t N.T.A.
