Considering the beating Boston has taken repeatedly for being the starting point of 9/11, and being a large, historic city, I don't think for one second anyone overreacted. Yeah, I'm a bit biased, but I support all of the measures taken 100%. After all, does anyone here really know what a bomb looks like? After being in the fire service for 28 years and attending numerous classes, I still don't know. I bet most of you don't either. As for the costs........politics is politics.
And to SandyBeach.......LA County used to run small rescues only to get the Paramedics to a call. Nowadays they are on the ambulances.
