Dozens of Bomb Threats Reported Today

Dozens of Bomb Threats Reported Across America in Apparent Bitcoin Ransom Scam
NYPD Counterterrorism Bureau Wrote:“We are currently monitoring multiple bomb threats that have been sent electronically to various locations throughout the city. These threats are also being reported to other locations nationwide and are not considered credible at this time."
Hopefully is just a hoax and not another right-wing terrorist.
"This is Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. I regret to report that both our Jedi Order and the Republic, have fallen with a dark shadow of the Empire rising to take their place. This message is a warning and a reminder for any surviving Jedi. Trust in The Force. Do not return to the Temple... that time has past. And our future is uncertain. We will each be challenged. Our trust. Our faith. Our friendships. But we must persevere. And in time, a new hope will emerge. May the Force be with you, always."

Last I checked, falsely making terrorist threats for the purpose of extortion is still a crime. And quite likely weighted at the same level as making actual terrorist threats.

One guard is still in the hospital.
As for the Bitcoin crap... Damn these coattail-riding opportunists.
Using an IED to rob a bank? When did our world become part of Batman: the Animated Series?
