Kid arrested for building a clock??

Better create two standards, one for each way.

Kervorkian would sure be happy.

Wasn't it Chuck Moore "Who said standard are great everybody should have one."

The kid took a clock sold by Radio Shack, removed it from its case, and bolted it to the inside of a briefcase. The clock he used had a 9v battery to keep the time when the power went out. It's possible that model would beep the alarm even when not plugged in. It would also make a great timer for a suitcase bomb. (what good is a clock who's display can't be seen?) But really he seems to be some genius who's been misunderstood by the idiot teachers and cops. Only Obama recognized his true intellect.

Heard one report today that the kid was put up to it by his father to elicit exactly the response he got. It just happened to fit the left's agenda perfectly. Note that a white kid chewing a Pop Tart wasn't at all politically correct.

Oh, at least three!

Standards are great, there're *so* many to choose from!

And that's probably why Clinton and Obama feeled the need to respond.

If the father put the kid up to it, how would anyone know? Did the dad confess?

I am assuming that Obama is trying to minimise the damage to the American public's trust in their police, as well as the international ridicule, by making it clear that the in the USA people should be rewarded for being keen and technical, not arrested and mistreated. It doesn't really matter if the kid build the clock from scratch or opened up an existing box, or whether he is a genius or an idiot - it's about public image.

The wires are all white.

Oh, is that it. For I while I was thinking that he was trying to set up the American people against the police. And with at least one innocent unarmed (mostly black) America shot by the police per day, he's doing a hell of a good job.

Not according to this guy...

According to him a whole bunch of murders are Obama's fault..

Hell, he's almost as dumb as you are.

Is everything that happens in the US the fault of the current President? Do the citizens of this country have no free will? Didn't we have the same problems under every president in the last 50 years? They were

It was a Radio Shack clock. I couldn't see that he'd made any modifications.

Or quite the opposite, his intention is to call selective attention to rare and minor incidents precisely to stoke mistrust. The latter interpretation is more consistent with his rhetoric. He uses these incidents as preludes to various radical's actions.

In Ferguson, for example, where a strong-arm robber was shot rushing a policeman, Obama sided with the crowds lionizing the robber, encouraged their resentments, persecuted the police, and now, has essentially seized federal control of the city. Over a lie--that the robber was an innocent teen, shot while surrendering.

Obama is not your usual president.

Damn! Somebody finally got one right.

Well... two actually.

only ~half of them, which half depends on what party the person saying it votes for ..

but of course! None of this existed before he was sworn in. Remember when he held up the sword and all that lightning hit him? I think it's called The Quickening...

Oh wait - that's "Highlander." My bad. I thought they'd changed the National Anthem to "Princes of the Universe" for a second, too.

You don't want to know the answer to that.... Also, there's a movie based on a Phillip K. Dick story, "The Adjustment Bureau" which...

To a man, except for the one guy each person liked - which depends on who you are. Some, it's Reagan, some it's Clinton,...

BHO is a shrewd, calculating guy and I can't tell he's so much as lost a skirmish in eight years.
