QuoteWas it just a toy pony or a Trojan horse?
A "suspicious" toy pony was blown up after it was found abandoned in the middle of a cul-de-sac near an Orange County elementary school yesterday morning, reports the Orlando Sentinel.
The FurReal pony, an expensive, lifelike toy, was investigated as a possible explosive device after someone called Orange County deputies to report it. A robot inspected the toy before a pack of explosives was placed near the stuffed animal and detonated.
Students at nearby Waterbridge Elementary School were placed on a modified lockdown in which no one was allowed in or out of the building during the investigation. The lockdown was lifted after the pony was blown up.
Orange County Sheriff's spokesman Jeff Williamson said the pony was later declared "non-threatening."
Parent Shanie Lucas, who uses the area to pick up and drop off her 9-year-old daughter, Valerie, thought the whole incident was funny.
Lucas saw the pony this morning around 8:30 when she dropped Valerie off at school and thought someone put it there to deter people from double-parking inside the small circle.
But when Lucas received an automated call from her daughter's school about the lockdown, she got nervous. She scoured the Internet looking for information and realized it was the same pony she saw earlier in the morning.
...
No one was hurt.

is there a repository of ridiculous things that have been blown up on the off chance that they might blow up?
I recall a story a while ago about some dildo on the side of the road that was blown up.
now a toy pony.
i sense a GASM in the making...
Fucking toys, how do they work?
Oh my God, are americans so paranoid as to blow up an artificially human created robot in fear it will cause destruction??

There absolutely needs to be.
Ah, this story has made my day.
maybe an entire "security theatre" blog with a category for bomb threats?
I wonder what poor kid is crying now because someone blew up their toy...
Well that will certainly teach whichever kid dropped it to not take toys to school which their mother had most likely already told them not too anyway.
Great threat, if you take that to school the bomb squad will blow it up! :lulz:

What do you think?
:lulz:
just to clarify kiraiansleeah,
those things are pretty big....
your toddler could ride it.
i think extra points should be awarded dependent upon the amount of explosives needed to blow up whatever retarded item is selected. therefore, size counts.
also, if it has some kind of hardened inner core they don't expect, forcing them to blow it up twice, that would be bonus as well.
