Bill Maher Does Not Stand With Ahmed Mohamed: Young Muslims ‘Blow S--- Up’ (contains profanity)
Uproxx ^ | September 19, 2015 | Kimberly Ricci

Posted on 09/19/2015 7:41:08 PM PDT by EveningStar

On Wednesday, the Internet rallied support for a bright 14-year-old boy, Ahmed Mohamed, who was arrested for bringing a homemade clock to school. Ahmed was proud of his invention, but school officials and police in Irvine, Texas, did not feel the same way. Ahmed found support from big leaguers like President Obama, who tweeted his well wishes, and the original clockmaster himself, Flavor Flav, who told the world to “STOP clock blocking.” Everyone loves Ahmed except for Bristol Palin and — you guessed it — Bill Maher.

On Friday evening’s episode of Real Time With Bill Maher, the host assured his panel that he would not be throwing the #IStandWithAhmed hashtag anytime soon. Maher believes Ahmed deserves an apology from school officials, but he knows why this happened: “People at the school thought it might be a bomb … because it looks exactly like a f---ing bomb.” Maher’s statement was met with instantaneous audience laughter.

Looked a whole lot more like a bomb than a clock. Intentional.

The whole incident was “probing” us and on purpose.

Hundreds of years ago clockmakers didn’t need to plug their timepieces into the wall.

So bright. He disassembled a working clock and rebuilt it inside a case, no?

George Takei voiced support for the kid, said he was the victim of racism, etc. Has George noticed what Muslims do to homosexuals?

This was like a “spontaneous demonstration” by the geese in “Animal Farm”.

Napoleonobama playing it like a violin.

“Welcome to ISIS 101, kids. Make things that look exactly like suitcase bombs, but just don’t have any explosives. That way, people will stop reporting suspicious-looking IEDs.”

Yes, this is about the kid getting arrested for a clock.

This genius has been all over that thread shouting about SUITCASE BOMBS (it’s a pencil case) and BOMB TIMERS (clocks) that look NOTHING LIKE A CLOCK (numerical display and commercial circuitboard). This was the post where he rounded the bend from Wrongsville into Crazytown.

Welcome to ISIS 101, kids.

Today’s Lesson: How do you get people to lower their guard.

Step 1) People have been told, “If you see something suspicious report it, call 911.”

Step 2) Start making people report stuff that looks like it might be an IED, but turns out it isn’t. Make things that look exactly like suitcase bombs, but just don’t have any explosives. But they should have timers, and wires and digital readouts - everything except the C4. Call them “clocks.” Or “inventions.”

Step 3) Do that repeatedly, and start bashing the people who made the reports. Make them feel like fools for crying wolf. Ridicule them for calling 911. Make them appear to be complete idiots. Make them look Islamaphobic. Call them out. Get them fired from their jobs if you can for calling the cops. Get Barack Obama to call them out and make them seem like fools. He’ll help. He’s on our team.

Step 4) That way, people will stop reporting suspicious-looking IEDs.

Step 5) Now you can bomb grade schools with complete impunity, because citizens will be too afraid to call 911 to report suspicious looking packages. They won’t want to look foolish. They won’t want to be called out by President Obama. Happy hunting!

Thus endeth the lesson.

Ramos needs to be kicked out of this country because of being terminally stupid.

I like George Takei, but he’s a knee-jerk liberal, with emphasis on the jerk part. A lot of libs act like it was Southern Baptists who hijacked those planes on 9/11.

Maher is on my good list. Tonight, anyway. Anyone who has seen a picture of that device knows it was MADE to look like a bomb. Myself, I think he was just playing a joke on the class (I was a class clown, so know the territory), but it was a stupid joke. Very stupid.

Come to think of it, Obama has a penchant for inviting very stupid individuals to the White House. Guess he enjoys like-minded people.

Oh he knows what Muslims do to homos but he doesn’t care, like all liberals when a Muslim does it its “Oh we just don’t understand their culture its our fault not theirs” but when an American refuses to make a homo a “Wedding cake” than the ACLU and other groups come out to destroy that person

Maher has been fairly consistent about radical Islam, and has a levelheaded, mature, wise take on it. I don’t care for his values otherwise.

Exactly. Your #3 & #4 are the reasons no one called out Hasan at Ft. Hood. Don’t be cowed. Say something!

Amazing! This just proves a broken clock is right twice a day.
