Why is it important? gollygee Sep 2015 #30

Why do lawyers leftynyc Sep 2015 #32

And I think it's well within Comrade Grumpy Sep 2015 #87

Then he is really really smart. roody Sep 2015 #121

It only has a vague resemblence gollygee Sep 2015 #63

Which is why he kept telling people it was a clock, so they'd think it was a bomb? uppityperson Sep 2015 #94

sure, it was a clock once he got in trouble fbc Sep 2015 #104

When asked at any time, he said it was a clock. uppityperson Sep 2015 #116

I can tell you what I'm not afraid of: A 14-year-old kid messing around with electronics. Comrade Grumpy Sep 2015 #84

What if the teachers/police overreacted AND this was a stunt meant to provoke a reaction? fbc Sep 2015 #60

If it was a stunt he would not have shown it to his engineering teacher first thing. n/t lumberjack_jeff Sep 2015 #65

If it was a stunt, why'd he keep insisting it was a fucking clock? jeff47 Sep 2015 #68

Is there any evidence for that? Adrahil Sep 2015 #86

What if pigs could fly? Comrade Grumpy Sep 2015 #88
