So, a 14 year-old boy in Irving, Texas, was arrested and suspended for bringing a homemade clock to school that one teacher and the principal thought 'looked' like it might be a bomb, even though the kid's science teacher told them he was a 'whiz kid' and the 'bomb' was a homemade clock. You wouldn't probably have heard about this case except for the fact that the student, Ahmed Mohamed, is a Muslim. Only when school 'Zero Tolerance' policies affect members of a particular class does the Left freak out...and speak out. President Obama extends an invitation to the White House. Hillary Clinton cheers. Mark Zuckerberg offers the kid an internship at Facebook. CAIR and its partners decry the administration's 'See something, say something' admonition. Representative Keith Ellison, one of only two Muslim members of Congress, walks around the campus with a mattress strapped to his back Capitol with a clock that looks nothing like the one made by Ahmed. And, the cries of 'Islamophobia' ring out from San Francisco to New York to London to Tehran. For all of you, I have a few questions...
Where were YOU when schools adopted 'Zero Tolerance' policies?
Where were YOU when...a 5 year-old girl in Alabama was forced to sign 'No Suicide' contract after drawing picture of a gun?

Where were YOU when...a 6 year-old boy in Colorado was suspended from school for making a 'finger gun'?
Where were YOU when...a 7 year-old boy in Maryland was suspended for eating Pop-Tart into shape of gun (or mountain - YMMV...HIS did)?
Where were YOU when...an 8 year-old boy in Texas was suspended for bringing his 'Lord of the Rings' ring to school?
Where were YOU when...a 10 year-old boy in Ohio was suspended for making a 'finger gun'?
Where were YOU when...a 10 year-old boy in Virginia was arrested after toy gun was found in his school backpack?
Where were YOU when...a 14 year-old boy in Utah was arrested for bringing a toy gun to school?
Where were YOU when...an 8th grader was arrested in Louisiana for throwing Skittles on a school bus?

Where were YOU when...we were vocalising our disgust at the ridiculousness of school 'Zero Tolerance' policies?
Where were YOU when...we were screaming how school 'No Tolerance' policies were ending asinine arrests, suspensions or expulsions of blacks for absolutely ridiculous things?
Where were YOU when...we were condemning the idiocy of school 'Zero Tolerance' policies?

Where were YOU when... we were screaming about all of this ridiculousness?
Where were YOU when...we were screaming how school 'No Tolerance' policies were ending asinine arrests, suspensions or expulsions of whites for absolutely ridiculous things?
Why is it that YOU only weigh in now that school 'Zero Tolerance' policies and overreaction have affected a Muslim?
Why is it that, AFTER you have supported school 'Zero Tolerance' policies for decades, do you only get upset when they impact one of your special class, pet projects?
Why is it that you are absolutely fine with school 'Zero Tolerance' policies when they apply to guns, American flags, prayer by Christians, nutrition, 'rape', etc, but blow a bloody gasket when your same intolerant, common-sense-lacking, overreactive policies impact a 15 year-old Muslim?
Dearest Hillary,
Where were YOU, luvvie, when this idiocy started producing predictable results?
Why are you weighing in now?
Is it because you are free-falling in the polls and need to pander, pander, pander?
You are about as 'authentic' as a $3 bill.
Yuck, yuck, yuck.
