What IED are you talking about?
That would be the one Ahmed built and brought to school. For which Ahmed
SHOULD presently be sitting in a dog kennel in Gitmo... in between 'debriefing' sessions.
Where_R_My_Clues still thinks everything is explosive..
Your concession is Duly Noted and Summarily Accepted.
This is what Ahmed took to school:
The distinctions are the the pipe, was a Pencil/Brief Case... and the Egg timer was an electronic clock.
Now what's important about the distinction?
Someone carrying that pipe would be readily recognized as a person of ill-intent.
While a pencil/brief case cloaks the device within an innocuous container...
To test the theory... I suggest you run down to Home Depot and pick up the supplies presented in the photograph... assemble them as indicated and come Monday Morning, walk that little Egg-timer you built right on into the closest school.
Now... as soon as you're able, you get back to the board and let us know what the school thought of your Egg-timer.
OK?
In fairness... what ya probably need to know is that you've a very high probability of being killed... by the school's law enforcement representative, pretty much the instant that they lay eyes on you.
SOOoooo... If you feel better about it, maybe you should make up a copy of Lil' Ahmed's 'invention' and run that on into the school. Find the Law Enforcement Rep and open that up for his inspection.
Again... be sure to get back to the board to report how it went, just as soon as you're able.
Now don't be a coward. If things are as you'd have the Reader to believe that are, then you've NOTHING to be concerned about.
Looking forward to hearing all about it.
