THE WORST THING I FIND ON MY LAWN ARE DANDELIONS (Updated):
A Jersey City woman made a shocking discovery on her lawn this morning when she noticed a military rocket launcher lying in the grass.
I live and work near Newark Airport--and remember my window view of 9/11.
This is unsettling.

UPDATE: Looks like there is no reason to be concerned:

From a newsroom source:

Federal officials tell us there's no concern about the discovery of a military launcher tube, found this morning on a New Jersey woman's lawn.

It is decidedly not an anti-aircraft weapon.

It's an Army anti-tank launcher from a use-once-and-throw-away weapon. Investigators believe it was used in a military training exercise (the weapon had been fired) and that some soldier or guardsman probably took it as a souvenir then chucked it or lost it.
