ISIS-inspired Utah teen tried to blow up high school
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/03/07/isi...e-say.html
Quote:A Utah teenager on Monday tried to blow up his high school with a homemade bomb, police said.
The same student, police said, hoisted a flag supporting the terror group ISIS last month.
"Based on our investigation we can confirm this was a failed attempt to detonate a homemade explosive," St. George police said in a statement. "It was also determined that the male had been researching information and expressing interest in ISIS and promoting the organization."
Police arrested and charged the teenager with manufacturing and possessing a weapon of mass destruction. More charges are expected for the vandalism at Hurricane High School, where he destroyed an Americans flag and spray painted "ISIS is coming" on the school's exterior, police said.
Quote:The latest incident occurred Monday at Pine View High School in southwestern Utah, when an alert student noticed a backpack emitting smoke in a common area. The student alerted teachers, who evacuated the building. After a bomb-sniffing canine confirmed the explosive was real, bomb techs disarmed the device, which police said could have caused "significant injury or death."
"I saw them looking through the bag, and then they picked it up and ran it outside," said student Tavien Hancock told St. George News. "It's pretty scary knowing I was around a bomb and walked by a bomb three times. Just, kind of, make me more aware of my surroundings."
After obtaining a search warrant, police found materials in the teen’s home matching those found in the bomb. They also found materials sympathetic to the terror group ISIS.
Quote:On Tuesday, police confirmed the teen is connected to the earlier incident at Hurricane High. He is currently in a detention center awaiting arraignment.

Just think, if only we had banned AR-15s, this would never have happened.

So they already knew the little fuqr was sympathetic to ISIS. How in the hell does a teen have bomb making supplies at home and mom and dad don't know about it??

We need high school control legislation. Or better yet, lets ban all high schools.

How many people died? The Columbine killers tried bombs too - they didn't work. There's also the idiocy of assuming that if you don't stop all killings it isn't worth trying to stop any.

The only idiocy is restricting the rights of law abiding citizens because of the actions of criminals.

And those rights include any kind of weaponry that anyone wants to have, including nuclear weapons?

If you read the intentions of our Founding Fathers yes.
Sadly in 1934 the citizenry allowed the government to steal away some of our rights in the futile pursuit of safety from the lawless. I don't intend to go down that path again.

Our Constitutional right was guaranteed so that we could protect ourselves from an abusive government.
I hear people say, "The Founders never had an idea that guns would advance past muskets."
Well, if that's really the case (which is idiotic given that men used to fight with pointed sticks) then the Founders never had an idea that the federal army would have any weapons more advanced than muskets, either.
It really does work both ways.

The idiocy is assuming that banning AR-15s would stop any killings. As long as some other gun is available, killers gonna kill. Columbine occurred during our previous “assault weapons ban.” And Virginia Tech was with pistols. Plenty of people died at both.
If you’re going to solve the problem by banning guns, you’re going to have to ban all guns. So only cops and robbers and soldiers have guns. Do you want to live in that society? I don’t. That’s also why there is the slippery slope worry.

"How many people died?"
Now if this isn't a stupid question I don't know what is. We should have waited for that bomb to go off otherwise it's a benign situation. "No harm done, keep doing what you were doing". Jeepers, Libturds are indeed stupid.
