Al Qaeda + Berkeley City Council = nonsense

Well, here are the latest antics of the Berkeley Zoo. They have invited terrorists released from Gitmo to live in my backyard. Yes, I know: it is a serious security threat, kinda like begging someone to put a landmine into the neighborhood park.

But seriously: the Berkeley Zoo has done this sort of thing many times before. They know that it has zero practical effect. However, ‘sending a message’ or ‘showing solidarity’ is more important, so we get this kind of useless proclamation specifically designed to make the headlines.

It is just another PR stunt, sort of like a spoiled child throwing a temper tantrum, so I would suggest you not give them the satisfaction by simply ignoring it.

Yes, they defeated the measure, but the same applies to that Pvt. Manning/WikiLeaks guy thing, which did pass
