Bomb Scare

So yesterday there was a bomb scare at the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM). Now why would someone in their right mind call in such a thing. And to add more to this discussion, some moron posted a video to Youtube showing a fake bombing at the ROM. In my personal opinion, these people should be tracked down and prosecuted to the full extent of the law. There are a few things to note here:
1) They disturbed a $600 plate charity fundraiser,
2) They caused fear amongst the persons in the area; and
3) this is a form of terrorism.
I was recently in LAX (Los Angeles International Airport) and there were signs around indicating that any sort of reference to a bomb whether it be real or a joke, those persons would be charged and prosecuted.
This is no laughing matter. If someone decided that this was their form of a prank or art should have their head examined. Trying to make a statement is one thing and so is meaningful art, but this is neither. This is a blatant disregard for civility. Perhaps if there was a way that their lives could be turned upside down and severely disturbed, they would learn their lesson.
