I don’t think the teacher was silly. The kid shows up with what looks like a primitive bomb and probably strutted up to her desk with a smirk on his face. He’s probably given her trouble before.
The science teacher he first showed it to wasn't, and was smart enough to see --- that it was no threat --- but some people would mistake it as one (because let's face it --- humans can be kinda' stoo-pid)
How many real and actual bombs are made with digital clock readouts?
That's Hollywood, not real life.
As far as I could tell, the kid is on his own wavelength so to speak.
He doesn't express himself very well.
Who did at that age?
Then later, people take advantage of the situation...
Like Obama did, dancing like a puppet to CAIR's own self-justification wet dreams.
