    Nice to hear that for once our government employees were “dynamic”.

    Dynamic risk assessment my ass!!
    What the hell were they going to do if it were an explosive device?
    No police bomb squad, no military ordnance disposal and definitely no bomb disposal robots.
    And most of all, no common sense.

    Not very dynamic given they didn’t respond for over 24 hours – just imagine if this had of been a real threat. The bomb would have gone off before anyone had a clue what had hit them. Pretty shocking really.

    Just suppose it was a threat? Building security did their job. If it was a threat and someone got hurt or worse you lot would be complaining that they didn’t do their job. Similar things happen in other countries daily and no one makes a mockery of it. Thank God you all don’t represent Main stream Cayman. This site seems to attract the professional complainers…. honestly man. Get a life
