I know that, but a lot of people use the term racist when facing any argument against a muslim.

Well, if they're stripped down to the circuit board and attached by wires, I'd say it was justified.

Why yes, a student making something at home and carrying it into school in back pack is much different than making something under classroom conditions with the direct supervision of the instructor. A good post.


Thanks for proving my point on how much they look alike. So, better safe than sorry.

yeah i get the ignorance about electronics, explosives, law, and the nature of human beings you're demonstrating with racist undertones, but he wasn't making a bomb and what he's been put through is hosed up. knock it off.

What he made looks similar to a home made bomb though and it's disingenuous the way people are playing it off like it doesn't.

He always maintained that it was a clock and not a bomb, which raises the question if a hoax bomb can exist without a hoax.

this is stupid because those are detonators not bombs. Also, given that you can put those things inside pretty much anything and so anything could look like a bomb, it basically becomes a judgment call based on ignorance and, despite your protests, posing great potential for profiling

I'm no ordinance expert but I know that circuit boards are not inherently dangerous. I assume that any police department in our post 9/11 world has put their officers through a basic explosive identification PowerPoint and should know better. This is a hosed up situation.

“We are tolerant towards other races. We allow them to get education and earn a living here. What is wrong in being racist when we are not cruel to others?” Ketereh MP Tan Sri Annuar Musa, one of the rally organisers said. He added that rally participants had been paid to attend but said he felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

in what ways is suburban dallas similar to kabul?

it is pretty amazing though that republicans who constantly whine about participation trophies and the pussification of america are wetting themselves over a high schooler's extra credit science fair project just because they can't tell a television bomb from a real bomb

Before the case got mass media and social media attention, the police were still considering pressing charges for a hoax bomb the day after the fact, which is pretty impressively stupid when the creator never made any claims of having built a bomb and maintained that it was a clock all along.
