    All's well now. Obama invited him to the White House. Obama strangely did not invite the Pop-Tart kid. I wonder why?

    Being Muslim may be the key ingredient.

    Sure. And if he'd blown someone up the media'd be screaming "why didn't we notice?".

    Default Sorry situation

    The kid is a science geek. His family has been here 30 years. He wears a freakin NASA Tshirt. We NEED kids to be science and math nerds. The schools are turning out dummies and we ARREST a kid who has a working brain?! There are some days I seriously wish the zombie apocalypse would just come already.

    It's not like Muslims are not known for bombing things. Perhaps the school overreacted some, but only some. The kid's name is Ahmed Mohamed. Typical name for a suicide bomber.

    Got no problem with that. The part that gets me is we DON'T check out the ones that are unhinged because no one wants to profile or call names. They bring an arsenal to school and open fire. But some little nerd gets arrested for being a geek.

    But there's nothing wrong HERE ....

    How about overreacting in the right direction? EVERY school shooting we've had has been done by people with openly obvious problems that no one wants to call a problem.

    Did I miss the rash of suicide bombings by kids, or anyone for that matter, here in the US?

    World trade center and Pentagon. And flight 93 was probably going to Capitol.

    Flight 93 was headed for the White House. Who wants to hit the Capitol? Nobody's in it but tourists. They're always on a taxpayer paid vacation. I've been to the Capitol countless times in my life and there's never been anyone in it that's supposed to be there.

    If Ahmed had indeed had a bomb, then everyone on here would be going crazy about how all the signs were there and no one cared because of political correctness. Maybe it is racial profiling, but I don't care. When blue-eyed blondes start becoming suicide bombers, then they can profile me....and I will willingly accept.

    Geez, this is sooooo obvious to all who wants to see.
