PrezO did something cool today:

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Or do we just do guns?
I'm afraid of all teenagers with unknown devices! Teens are scary! But yes I agree, white

kid doing something suspicious is a bit more on my radar.

Chris Rock addressed the issue some years ago.

You probably didn't get handcuffed whisked away to a holding cell and threatened with charges of manufacturing a bomblike device.

I can hear it now; some birther right wing nut will attempt to use this as evidence that President Obama is Muslim.

Would the arbiters of all the debate and logic rules insist in this example the school teacher and the TSA agent be the same person ?

(serious question, I'm trying to do better with all the post ad hocter, substitution fallacy, strawman stuff, and I think this an example of another one, thanx)
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
