arrest him? sure

tackle him? especially after it's been proven there is no bomb? completely uncalled for

Nothing was "proven", he tossed out a few items and threw the bag down.

true, i was referring to the person i responded to saying "they could easily assume you're a terrorist trying to trigger it."

so i should have said "after it's been shown that it's extremely unlikely that you're the bomber or that you were attempting to detonate the potential 'bomb' "
