[Oztrich Boy]

But in these times with a device featuring an LED display and accompanied by a muzzie, to me that clock appears to be far more than a clock.

You are wrong. There was no red wire, ergo not a bomb.

Given that the kid at the center of this incident, Ahmed Mohamed, is a muzzie and his father, Mohamed Elhassan Mohamed, is likewise, it changes the whole equation in my mind. Had he been a real American, I'd be on board with all of you in agreeing that the Irving ISD over-reacted. But when islam is involved, it's a different story. At the risk of offending those who see it otherwise, yes, I honestly think it's wise to discriminate against those who are islam, a satanic death cult. And I make no apologizes for my bias against that "religion" and its members.

At this point of the morning, I thank you all for what's been a largely civil discussion. On this matter, we shall remain divided but I do appreciate the give and take.
