Does anyone actually believe Ahmed built the clock himself?

[ttystikk]

Prime example of why this kid is probably going to go to MIT and you went to... not MIT. Do yourself a favor, and read the reasons I stated on why taking apart something and reassembling it is important at that age.

You know what- as a kid I took all kinds of shit apart and put it back together... and sometimes it even worked afterwards, lol

Better fucking education than the one I got in college, for damned sure!

 

[NLXSK1]

Just start putting data points together for yourself, I won't need to do any convincing.

There's over 60,000 homeless people in New York City alone. Now, Google 'poor doors' in the same city for a stark example of institutionalized classism.

The police in this country kill thousands- THOUSANDS- of American citizens every year, and the 'justice' they face is rather different than ours. We don't have exact numbers because police departments refuse to keep records of them. SERIOUSLY. By contrast, Germany, a country almost half the population of the United States, had just 85 in 2011.

The list is endless...

You think the police kill thousands of people a year (that is like 10 a day) and your evidence is that they dont document all the people they kill?

I think people would be noticing if cops were on a mass murder spree of the size you suggest...

Nothing wrong with it, it just is not innovative.

Now if you took the parts and made something new, that would be innovative.

PNWM's fingers move faster than his brain ;]

 

[pnwmystery]

How is it innovative again? You keep using words that do not fit the situation and then you are attacking me for not going to MIT. Did you go to MIT? Is that part of the problem?

When you were 14, what were you doing? Were you that curious about the internal workings of a digital alarm clock that you took the time to disassemble it, look through it, look at the various components, then put them into another casing where you can clearly see each and every piece from the circuit board, the logic gates, the backup batteries, and the power cord? Since you can't comprehend what I typed up in the first place -- when other people obviously could -- I'm going to guess no.

You're completely not comprehending what I'm typing out, instead you have this premade narrative in your head that "this little kid isn't anything special, and it's the PC police, and he made it look like a bomb on purpose, and they're trying to push their Muslim agenda, and, and... and... and...." Look, that's not what I'm getting at here, okay? It's a known fact: Get them while they're young. When they're young, they're impressionable. I never said he was innovative I said what he did shows potential innovation. He's taking something out of its current casing, and putting it into a new one. While it may not seem like a lot, let me break it down to you in a way that you'll understand since this is RUI.

Plants live in dirt. Plants need water to survive. Too much water, and a plant dies. I live in an arid region, where the dirt does not hold much moisture. How can I make the plant survive? Maybe if I put it into a plastic container... and then fill the container with water... and then add oxygen to the water by pumping air into it... and holy shit now I'm doing hydro! What is this called? Innovation. What he did potentially can lead to it. Get it yet? Tell me if you don't, because I can continue to provide examples.

That's innovation. Rather than trying to stifle it, we want to encourage it. That's why slapping the cuffs on this kid, arresting him, and our "Zero tolerance" policies are so dumb. Like the kid who chewed a poptart into a gun shape and pretended to shoot with it then got a suspension. Who knows, maybe he could've made the newest NRA snack crave gun tarts.

You said what the kid did shows innovation, which it does not.

I am picking on your representation of the situation, the kid really does not have much to do with it. You play fast and loose with language and use flowery words that do not mean what you apparently think they mean.

The kid took apart a clock, kids take things apart. This makes him average....

You never said whether you graduated from MIT or not. I have my theories ;]

I don't got much hope for him if he thinks taking something that looks like a bomb to school is a good idea

He's a dumbass

It really does not make him average because kids don't "take things apart" all the time like you're representing. Like I said, you have your premade narrative in your head. I guess it's more apt to say he's showing the innovative spirit.

Nope, I didn't go to MIT, didn't want to move across the country and couldn't afford to go there anyways. Plus I wasn't so much of a STEM person (huge mistake).

I am trolling you on your posting style and the words that you are using and you are so far out in left field you think I am talking about the kid.... ROFLMAO!!! Kids take things apart, you did it, I did it, it is average. If it isnt average then why dont we read about it in the paper when it happens. Oh wait, WE JUST DID!!!

It isnt innovative.

At least the kid is mechanical enough to make license plates ;]

You're not trolling anyone, you're just proving to the entire thread how little sense you make. I keep replying to you because I want to make it painfully obvious to anyone reading that they have either get schadenfreude or fremdschämen.

I have been watching all this over the years, trust me on that I am not blind to the shit that goes on just don't pretend to know why.

YUP AMEN, I love how the one dude points out exactly what I was saying. How do we fuckin know what really happened we weren't there we don't know how the situation was really handled but most of us had already taken sides before the conversation started.

 

[Padawanbater2]

How is it innovation to take something apart and leave it spread out all over the place?

It is innovative to take a clock apart and redesign it into something new or different than it was before. The word directly translates from Latin to "restoration, renewal"

And if this kid was white this wouldn't make national news because the stupid ass Texan who thought this was a bomb based it on the kids skin color, religion and their own absurd fear of anything different, perpetuated by the republican party and the mainstream media

But he didnt do that... He just took it apart. And since he didnt separate anything even that is debatable...

The fact that you are all agog over this simple act speaks volumes about how low the bar you have set for education is. The kid didnt cure cancer, he took the cover off a clock and stuffed the guts in a suitcase FFS...
