re: OT - It's going down in Boston right now

The part I was thinking of in reference to one of your first posts on this thread was the part where the main character has been discovered for having all of those books, is out running on foot, the whole city is looking for him and his face and the search for him is all over TV. Anyway of course he gets away and is heading out of town, the police know that there is no way they will get him so they show on TV the police taking out some random person on the street who they claim to be the suspect but obviously isn't, however the TV camera is far enough away so the viewers at home can't tell who it is. So the people are happy that the criminal was caught and maintain respect and fear of the all powerful police and government, feeling safe and content. This situation just made me think about that
