We need to see more moderate whites speaking out against these lunatics in Irving.

It seems the POTUS is on it.

Um.... huh?

But, hey, if you want to revive the whole "black cars" discussion, be my guest.

I can honestly now say I no longer like him.

Looking forward to Ty's defense of that one.

So this morning we have Sarah Palin, Bill Maher, Richard Dawkins, and Michelle Bachman earnest defending Irving Texas.

Ahmed is clearly a hero.

Are you joining the Ahmed-truther team, Hank?

No. Still crazy to have arrested him, but from the start I thought there is no way that is a clock actually designed by someone in 2015. Too big, and in a briefcase?

Your point is what? That's he's not going to make a fortune in the clock business?

He's 14 and tinkers.

Did you read the article? It's a Radio Shack kit.

So? Again, what's the point? Do you think there is a conspiracy? That he decided he was going to goad the school into arresting him by bringing in a bomb-like device (fyi, if its the article I saw this morning that Dawkins was hawking it said it was a disassembled 70s clock from ebay, but, you know, whatever). Do you think it looks like it was made as a hoax- bomb?

Or do you think he's a 14 year old boy on the robotics team who is doing what 14 year old boys on the robotics team do?

I don't what the kid was thinking, neither do you. Serious question, wasn't your kid on robotics? Did em make circuit boards or use old ones?

I was just surprised because the press was most certainly that the kid was this massively inventive kid- and of course, I was too lazy to even put together a kit so he is certainly not deserving of ridicule if all he did was that.

Two kids on robotics team, one now at college (you'll be happy to know heading for engineering), one 14 and, like Ahmed, in his first couple of weeks of high school. They were both playing with circuit boards from early ages. They both have boxes of stuff in their room they've salvaged from anything we might have thrown away, like old clocks, old computers, etc. New circuit boards cost money, so they worked with lots of salvaged ones as well as new. Half the kids on robotics team have something in their backpacks with wires, circuit boards, and odd parts on any given day.

So, yeah, Ahmed's clock is the kind of thing my kids have done. I don't think we should assume he's a genius or anything because he had a project with him, but that's he's a kid just like many others, with an interest in stuff. But he got arrested.

One thing you and I both know that's not, though, is a bomb. Nothing in that box goes boom. Biggest damage it could do is a short circuit. Can make a bigger explosion with a bottle of coke.
