A pressure cooker can do in 1 hour what takes a slow cooker 6 or 12 hours. The electronically controlled ones go up to pressure, stay there for the time you programmed then shut themselves off so you don't have to monitor them.

Are you suggesting that we should ban assault pressure cookers?

Any pressure cookers with military-style digital readouts and military-style latches should be considered "assault" and should be banned.

lol...ok dude, keep thnking that.

Link to William Sonoma saying anything about it publicly outside someone calling the store? Oh wait, keep spreading the crying. Only ATOT.

And from this article - http://redalertpolitics.com/2013/04...ookers-from-shelves-following-boston-bombing/

“It’s a temporary thing out of respect,” the store manager said.

Pressure cookers are still available on the Williams-Sonoma website, and other Boston-area stores that sell the cookers are keeping their shelves stocked, according to Patch.

bwhahahha respect? how is pulling pressure cookers showing respect? they didn't kill anyone. its a object a tool to cook/can (hmm canning).


I find it insulting that they would do that actually. It was 2 men that killed those people (still shocked only 3 died from the blast) not a pressure cooker. it was just a tool used.

Never fear, Williams Sonoma is protecting us from the dangers of sealable metal objects.

My guess would be if you say the word "pressure cooker", what do you think right now in the Boston area?

Who cares? It's a pantywaisted move done to appeal to the lowest common denominator. If anyone gets upset over pressure cookers, they should seek counseling, and not subject the rest of us to their neurosis. Catering to their neurosis makes everyone look bad.

It sickened me hearing how "brave" everyone was during the bomber search, when the evidence clearly showed otherwise...
