Um... Why not? Star is lucky she didn’t get shot in the head.

Are you saying you think Star looks like a bomb?

Carrying something that looks like a bomb into an airport is beyond stupid.

Thing is, it looks nothing like a bomb. It's really really obvious, to both me and Star and millions of other people, that it's just a socket board.

She IS an idiot. If you cannot even make a bomb JOKE for fear of being taken seriously, or use a fake gun because police will ASSUME it is a gun, how about making the assumption that Security WILL respond to a (maybe) fake bomb? Sheesh, what DO they teach them at the U these days? Money well spent, Mom and Dad.

Let’s see... A battery, a circuit board, a couple of capacitors and some C4...

You have a bomb.

Strap it to your chest and head into an airport...

I think Star gets the Darwin award for the week.

She never suggested to anyone that it was a fake bomb. It was just a socket board.

She is a 19 year old with a 42 year old boyfriend?

Sounds like her parents shouldn’t have let her out of their sight...she may have brains, but not a lick of common sense.

Lighten up! It was performance art, everybody! It was a brilliant illustration of the gestapo tactics of the Bush Administration to any law-abiding citizen strolling through an airport with something that looks like a bomb. It shows the fascism of the Right that they can’t handle an innocent college student walking around with wires and Play Doh under her jacket. It was a stunning performance and I hope she gets an “A”. < /sarc>

“That doesn’t look like a bomb. It’s just a pair of shoes with a fuse sticking out”.

Only deadbeat dads should be issued faux bomb shirts.

Well, maybe an “A-”. She forgot to shout “Death To America!” while being arrested or, at least, “In honor of Rachel Corrie!” I’d take some points off for that.

She went to pick up her 42 year old boyfriend. There’s another clue for you.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that. But it goes to show she’s not your average 19 year old college student.

Folks who work on planes and at airports are under orders to watch out for “anything out of the ordinary.”

What is funny in the cloister of your college dorm is not funny in a post 9-11 airport.

Exactly.

Star must be too busy to have noticed the real world. Perhaps someone could teach her. It would be of benefit to us all.

The writer must have had a deadline to dash off this lame attempt at justification for Star’s thoughtless and, at today’s airports..very suspicious apparel...At least he got the part right about Rather.

It's early yet but I'm putting my money on this guy being a teacher of some sort.
