...Let's call for a ban on pressure cookers.
And while we're talking about pressure cookers, Al Qaeda has taught would be terrorists how to use pressure cookers for home made bombs for years. The Department of Homeland Security was so concerned about the international terror connection, they issued an alert as early as 2004 about pressure cooker bombs. The 2010 NYC SUV bomb that failed to explode was also a pressure cooker bomb. So, while the perpetrators of this horror are still unknown, it's certainly a realistic possibility that this is another radical Islamic attack. Now wouldn't that be a surprise?

I wouldn't be surprised if they start requiring ID's to buy pressure cookers from now on. Here in IL, you can't even buy Drano without an ID, it's ridiculous.
