Detroit Public Schools’ spokeswoman Jennifer Mrozowski says authorities aren’t releasing the suspect’s identity or details.

You think he is Muslim???

Whisked away from the Phoenix Multicultural Academy to the Roberto Clemente Learning Academy. Do these Detroit kids even have a chance?

That could be satire, but isn’t. “Students (from the Multicultural Academy) were transferred to the nearby Roberto Clemente Learning Academy,” which, I assume, is mono-Puerto-Rican-cultural. It does not benefit society as a whole for this student’s identity to be concealed. We are entitled to know what kind of homicidal maniacs are in our midst, and in our children’s midst.

F.Y.I. after I wrote my comment, I went online to see what they meant by “multicultural”. According to the website, they cater to Latino students. Having said that, why won’t they release the name?

If the bomb went off in downtown Detroit, it would do about $5 worth of damage.

“If the bomb went off in downtown Detroit, it would do about $5 worth of damage.”

If the bomb went off in downtown Detroit would it make a noise?

The Multicultural Academy is on Lane Street (Springwells/W. Vernor). This is very close to the east side of Dearborn, Michigan - an Arab concleave. I would guess a mix of Arabs,Latino and other non-white minorities.

Isn’t amazing the lengths they will go to protecting those who wish to hurt us? It’s just a matter of time befor we find out though, every child in the school knows who it is.

That’s a fact. Must have been show and tell day. I live about 10 miles from the border of this third world city.

Saw a report where the average HOME selling price is below $8000 in Detroit.
There are lots of used cars there with a higher value than that of a residence at this time.

We need more details here. I seem to remember a news report a while back about a “bomb” on a college campus that turned out to be water and dry ice in a soda bottle. Don't know if this is relevant here - just saying...

True, and that fact reflects the harsh reality that with a vehicle, one can leave Detroit.

What's the problem? Likely a Middle Easterner just expressing some cultural norms ... what else would you expect at the Phoenix Multicultural Academy? And seriously, Phoenix? rising-out-of-the-ashes Phoenix? Who didn't see that one coming?
