PEORIA, Ariz. — An Arizona charter school has apologized after its yearbook listed a student with a Muslim first name as being voted “Most likely to bomb the U.S.,” The Arizona Republic reported.
Parents of students from Sonoran Science Academy in Peoria said they were shocked by what they read in the yearbook.
"I looked down and read, ‘Most likely to bomb the U.S.’ and I just sat there for a second and thought, no way. This is not happening," Bree Brown, whose 11-year-old daughter attends the school, told KNXV.
"I thought it was a joke, I didn't believe her at first," her husband, Kian Brown, told the television station.

The most important point:
School officials said students filled in the blanks for their own photo, and the controversial entry was written by an eighth-grader.
He and his parents say he was joking. Reminds me of a kid who once said he just made a clock.

Wouldn’t be a hoot if, after a few years, he and his family are exposed as a sleeper cell?

So, who is most likely to bomb the United States? A Muslim, or in non-muslim?
They should take pride in their culture and diversity.

Strap a bomb to his head. Then, we’ll see who bombs who. That seems like a reasonable compromise.

"...listed a student with a Muslim first name as being voted “Most likely to bomb the U.S.” What is wrong with this statement. Now we know what the kid has thought about...
