    Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to Fight, he'll just kill you.

    You only get to make the mistake once, but fortunately during my life time, the number of actual bombs in a package vs suspicious yet harmless packages has been nil.

    People generally use the tools they have with them. Many patrol officers become accustomed to answering and clearing calls as quickly and efficiently as possible. If the officer just finished in-service where they received an EOD briefing, they might be more likely to call it in. If, however, this is the third suspicious package call in a month, and the last officer who called one in is getting some peer pressure for the five hours on fixed posts holding a perimeter for a bag of dirty laundry... nudging it a bit with the tip of your boot may seem like a pretty good idea.

    When you only carry a hammer, lots of things start looking like nails.

    Be safe.

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    Send in the wife. Tell her somebody is messing with the expensive shoes she never wears.

    When she comes out call for hazmat cleanup or let hogs and dogs in for a few minutes.

    This is the greatest answer in the history of answers. I picture one with a series of steak knives duct taped. Weaponized Roomba should be a board rank name, somewhere around machine gunner.
