OK, standard fabric luggage with an led clock with wires and circuit boards.

it's a pencil box that couldn't even fit an alarm clock without removing the case

OK, a small aluminum case with a digital led clock with wires and circuit boards.

Not sure if john dougie has seen the inside of a computer...

john dougie, is this what you imagined being left at an airport?

I am starting to believe pundits like Levin who think this was a plan all along to profit from falsehood. The kid gets to visit out transmuslim in chief and scholarship offers galore. Pretty good payoff for rigging up a Hollywood bomb prop to scare the hell out of a poor nervous teacher.

No, just the one that the kid brought to school.

If this were the plan all along, the kid probably would have made his clock look like a bomb.

And maybe not shown it to his science teacher, calling it a clock.

"what if it had been a bomb?"

Yeah, and what if it had been a tiger? You can't be too careful.

Just don't get why the engineering teacher just didn't keep it with him/her for the duration of the day, but

The1BigWillie · « **Reply #118 on:** September 22, 2015, 10:29:51 AM »

From the bits and pieces I've read and watched... This little martyr didn't "BUILD" anything. He took apart a radio shack alarm clock and stuck the pieces inside that case. he didn't solder circuits or design anything... This is all bullshit. Kid isn't some genius. Anyone with a screwdriver, a clock, and that case could have done this..

that has been covered

would a child that hand-built an artisanal bomb be more or less ethical than this kid with his deconstructed mass-produced clock? more geniusey, obviously, but what about the ethics?

Depends if he is taking the bomb to school to blow it up or just to purposely get profiled.

i guess i need more info. did clock kid say he invented it or did people just start saying he invented it when he showed up with a piece from his modern art collection? and would bomb kid say it was a bomb or would he pretend it was a clock?

so much hinges on motives and disclosure. i can see why dax gets so flustered with climate science.

He claimed it was an invention. I think bomb kid would say it was a bomb, unless he had to set the bomb off at a specific time and needed to wait it out after getting discovered.
