That kid who made the "clock"
His family is demanding 15 million dollars from the town and school department.
How blatantly obvious was this set up ? Build something that looks like a bomb.. Get chastised for it and then lawyer up...

Or, an innocent kid who wants to be an engineer collides with racism and fear. |

Bull#^&#^&#^&#^&. His dad is a known provocateur and had been trying to accomplish something like this for a long time.

At best, if he was truly interested in engineering he underwhelmed people by repackaging a 30 year old clock - rather than engineering one. At worst he was trolling for notoriety.

Exactly this. How is taking apart an old clock and putting it back together considered engineering? |

I feel like this is right of passage in the political forum to have Spence respond to a post line by line  |

This digital clock was mounted inside of a briefcase just like a explosive briefcase.

here's the deal: there is a faction of muslims who want to kill us all, even apologists like you Spence! We really have no idea of knowing which of them want to kill us and which of them are peaceful people, therefore this kind of thing is the new way of life in the world. Liberals can cry racism and not like it, but as long as muslims are killing innocent people, this will be the way.

I can't believe how the father was smart enough to know that if he sent his son to school with a clock , people's stereotypes would kick in and automatically assume it was a bomb.
More people have been killed w/guns this year in the US than by terrorists. It sucks that you want to now lump in all the gun owners and call them all murders. |

You don't have to be that smart, Paul. We have all seen stories of kids getting kicked out of school for "weapons" like a pop tart chewed to look like agun, guns that shoot bubbles, etc. We all know that today, schools will err on the side of caution.
Have you seen a picture of what he brought in? I guarantee you, kids have gotten into trouble for bringing in things that were less scary looking. It looked like a bomb, there is no disputing that. |

I agree that the school should err on the side of caution and look into it. However, they went far beyond that. I'm sure most of it had to do with his being Muslim. |

Yep, exactly. Very carefully orchestrated. Complete with Obama invitation to White House because he's such a victim. |

That's kind of funny because I don't have to call all gun owners murderers, the media and the anti-gun lobby as already done that!

Obama called them all bitter clingers, who buy guns because they are racist. Words designed to bring us all together. |

The days when a black man takes insults and keeps his mouth shut are over. Did you forget when people tried to take away his country and his religion? |

Huh?
Did the civil right act pass just before he got into office? I don't think so.
Obama did the annual turkey pardon today. He couldn't even do that, without being a pr*ck and getting a dig in against Republicans.
Bill Clinton was President for 8 years. He didn't do this, not in public. Clinton knew that he was President of the whole country, not just those who kiss his feet. Obama is so thin-skinned and vindictive, he can't open his mouth to pardon a turkey without letting hs hate spew out of his mouth.
Who tried to take away his country and his religion? How does one do that, exactly? Who wants to take away "Black Liberation Theology"?
The poor, victimized black man. Everyone who didn't vote for him is in the Klan. |

Did you forget when the teabaggers insisted he was a Muslim? Where was there any proof? Did you forget when the teabaggers claimed he was not born in the US? Where was there any proof? Come on, you know a big part of the teabaggers anger stemmed from his being black.
Don't get surprised when you insult someone that you get insulted back.

Schools have a zero tolerance for guns, meaning anything gun related or looking like a gun is banned.
I'm assuming they have a zero tolerance policy for bombs too.
What would've happened if they brought that clock on a plane ?
