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

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.

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

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?

If it were a ‘white’ student it would have been all over the news....by not naming race and Identity, they answered the unasked question...

Sounds like a soda bottle bomb, not an “explosive”.

Loud, and can injure someone a few feet away, but not on a par even with an M80.

Lots of teeth gnashing, wailing and hand wringing over what is most probably a kid's prank.

Dollars to doughnuts it was a tinfoil & toilet cleaner soda bottle bomb.

Fun to play with, but the stuff is caustic, so some care must be taken.

Today's attitudes in schools mandate severe penalties for anything from a loud fart upwards, so this kid is probably facing 20 to life.

Do the kids actually do better since their public school uses the word “Academy” in its name? Just like how chrome valve covers make the car go faster?

Sitting here laughing that someone actually named a school, the “Multicultural Academy”. There is no line between satire and reality, anymore... lol.

-- homemade chemical-based bomb --

Vinegar and baking soda? Dry-ice and water? Or one of my favorites, metallic sodium flushed down the crapper.

Bomb goes off in hallway, but nobody could notice any additional damage.

Strange that they would name a place Roberto Clemente Learning Academy in Detroit. Didn't think there were enough Puerto Ricans there to bother to pander to. Plus, Clemente played his entire major league baseball career with the Pittsburgh Pirates, so he is not identified with Detroit at all.

I could think of dozens of other people - blacks and whites, living and deceased - for whom it would be more appropriate to name that school.
