Only poor people can be terrorists...but if you are in a limo, na.
I don't think Osama Bin Laden would get out of a limo...lol. That was a funny prank although it was bad. —FellowWiki Newsie 16:37, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
They're only pissed because they realize the stunt made their security appear useless...
Osama himself may not use a limo, but terrorists can easily afford them - I daresay a budding terrorist could convince his superiors for funding if he really believed a limo would get him in. Blood Red Sandman (Talk) (Contribs) 18:58, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
The person pointing the gun is responsible for the shot
[edit]If the comedians would have been shot, it wouldn't be their fault. The people who do the shooting bear all of the responsibility for who and what they shoot. If the security guards aren't careful with the power they've been granted, we'd better stop employing those people -- and get better ones.
Got it backwards.
[edit]Mr. Morrow seems unable to comprehend the situation, and gets it all wrong when he says "We had no intention of harming anyone" and "Lucky it was us and not Al Qaeda". In fact, those comedians were the lucky guys. I can assure you that they would have been shot unless they had been "under control" the second they stepped out of their vehicle, and whatever their intention might have been it would have been irrelevant at that moment. Security personel are not mindreaders and (in a live situation like this) will shoot you dead if you are perceived as posing even the slightest of possible threats.
o sarmer is back!
[edit]i think police should be banned! anarchy rules!
