re: #72 Charles Johnson

Never mind that Shapiro’s bomb image contains several big honking sticks of high explosive material. I swear, these people.

Yeah, if young Ahmed had included a couple of red-painted toilet paper tubes or a package of modeling clay labeled “C-4” in his “fake bomb” I wouldn’t have a problem with him being arrested.

What was supposed to represent the explosive in this fake bomb?

Steeped in superstition and magical thinking as they are, RWNJs might imagine that a mysterious collection of colored wires is sufficient unto itself to produce an explosion.
