Wait. Is this story heartwarming or heartbreaking? On the one hand, it seems very sweet of the police to cook for these two and offer them a bit of company. On the other, I cannot get my own Italian grandparents (Nonno and Nonna) out of my head. They are alone in their house and I have never cooked THEM pasta! Nonna…

Is there any proof of that, though? Or is it just the presumption of pessimists who have an axe to grind with this particular 14 year old boy, for whatever reason? Even if it’s a simple enough disassembly and reassembly to us adults (evidence of which may or may not be visible. I can’t find a photo which is close up…

Um, I know we’re all supposed to hate Katherine Heigl and all because she’s bad to work with or whatever, but she was right about Knocked Up.....just sayin’.

Brown and insisting on non racist treatment. They are not doing it respectfully by insisting on more than” No racism here” talk.

¿? According to the news I read, the kid just liked to play with electronics and was known for fixing stuff around his school. It’s really weird that people like you are so focused on the fact that he’s not a genius, when the kid and his teachers only talked about his normal interest in technology and his ability to…

my point was that it’s not an indication of imminent Islamic violence? And it seems like this kid would benefit from a campus that supports clock disassembly as a basic form of intellectual inquiry?

So, you missed the part where he was vilified tremendously by the media?

Oh snap. He’s fibbing. Honestly!

It’s hard to blame him, ‘cause, awkward question, but it’s super-obvious. Transcript:

I know, right? Some people need to take remedial courses in reading comprehension, and logic.

Him taking things apart and putting them back together in ways, to learn how they work, is about on par with the progress of most 14 year olds interested in this sort of thing, aside from a few child prodigies. Not even MIT is…

The OP never said that the clock did qualify him for admission to MIT. It’s much like how your comment won’t gain you admission into any prestigious post-secondary English degree program, or any program which requires reading comprehension and/or critical thinking abilities, really.

Amber Heard’s divorce and domestic abuse against her soon-to-be ex-husband Johnny Depp has begun...

SURE BRUH:

“The move, it seemed, was an attempt to escape the spotlight, or at least the hate mail and death threats that came with it.”

Well, when you’re treated like a terrorist/criminal in the US, you’d probably look elsewhere to live. And, as people have said, they were offered a good deal. This is just my own opinion, but I’m thinking they weren’t planning on living there forever.

Hello, acute. Somebody asked you a question. Can you even answer it?

Aren’t you just a peach? Your mom must be so proud.

It was a decision made by someone other than him. His parents moved him there. He didn’t do it to himself.

Yea after being harassed with death threats both locally and nationally, you dipshit asshole. Weird they would “freely” make a decision to move after that!

I really, really hope he donates any winnings to students. The racists who did this shit to him won’t be the ones to pay. It will basically end in cuts to education once the state government finds it self down money.
