A bomb next to a Mosque? You'd think the press would be all over this.

Oh, wait

Just a Muslim youth.

"PORTLAND, ME (NEWS CENTER) -- Police say there were no injuries or damage caused by a chemical bomb that went off in a parking lot near the Islamic Society of Portland.

The bomb went off in the lot between the Islamic Society and Back Bay Grill around 8:00 PM Tuesday night. Portland Police say Islamic elders came forward to tell them that a 13 year old from the Society was experimenting and was responsible for the bomb. Another bomb was also found undetinated [sic]...."

But wait, it gets better. Who was one of the elders? Some are saying it was....

"". . .Abdullahi Ahmed, president of the Islamic Society of Portland Ahmed, a science teacher at Deering High School who lives in Westbrook, came dressed in a business suit and a paisley tie. He is working on his doctorate at the University of Maine. He and his wife, a nurse, have four children......."

Think the kid will get charged with a Class C Felony like this two?

Some kids built homemade stuff starting in the 8th grade, but somehow, that was different. It was a science experiment of sorts. The chemicals that an 8th grader could get in the early 70's at the hobby shop, not to mention the bags of saltpeter in the grocery store made childhood interesting. Brisance was a blast baby.

IIRC, someone found some SF "cookbooks" on the subject hidden down in the creek.

More fun than the occasional skin mags that were floating around down there.


Of course, I just heard about this stuff second hand. :D
