    By the way, in 24 Season 6, Kal Penn played a high school kid named Ahmed who got a suitcase nuke that exploded in Valencia.

    This is what it looked like

    But they didn't really think it was a bomb. That was pretty clear. And the engineering teacher should have stepped in right away and told the kid to take it home. He looked at it and disregarded it as a threat. Even the second teacher didn't act like she really thought it was a bomb. If she had, they would have evacuated the school. Period. They just wanted to punish the kid for bringing something that resembled a bomb to school. It's the same protocol as if he had brought a bright colored squirt gun to school.

    So you're just missing the giant cylinder (aka the thing that actually goes boom) in the case? Yeah! It looks JUST like a bomb.

    Sorry bro, I'm not Tony Starks, it looks like a suitcase bomb you'd see in a movie. Sorry I don't know the exact layout of what a bomb looks like, it looks like what one I'd imagine would look like.

    Probably looks like a bomb to most people who aren't muslim apologists.

    Well, that's what TV says a bomb looks like. So that's what most people would think. I mean I'm not out here reading Soldier of Fortune Magazine or whatevz.

    Honestly, I would be MUCH more willing to throw the kid under the bus if he had left it out for someone to find and then tried to play the clock excuse. He didn't do that. He brought it in, showed his engineering teacher and then had it in his bag. The ONLY reason why the other teacher found it is because the alarm went off. He clearly didn't build this thing to create a hoax. He never deviated from telling people it was a clock. Just let it go.

    Agreed. Now that I just saw a pic of his family smiling like idiots supposedly driving to see their lawyers they can go fuck themselves. If it was a real pic that is.

    Well, he needs to work on his design skills then and go out in the real world and realize if you bring an aluminum suitcase that has a bunch of wires and a clock/timer on it with wires and leave it in your bag and it starts ringing, people are going to freak out a bit.
