It seemed like every liberal disagreed with what I said about Ahmed—the boy who was arrested when he brought a homemade clock to school that resembled a bomb.  Well, you should hear what liberal TV host Bill Maher said about it!

The Hill reports:

“Look, this kid deserves an apology, no doubt about it, they were wrong, but can we have a little perspective about this?” Maher said on his show on Friday. “Did the teacher really do the wrong thing?”

Univision anchor Jorge Ramos, who was a guest on the show, said Ahmed was arrested because of his ethnicity.

“Because for the last 30 years, it’s been one culture that has been blowing shit up over and over again,” Maher responded.

“What if it had been a bomb?” Maher asked. “So the teacher is supposed to see something that looks like a bomb and go, ‘Oh wait, this might just be my white privilege talking’? ‘I don’t want to be politically incorrect, so I’ll just let it go.’ ”
“He was arrested and they took him off in cuffs and then put him in a cage and burned him,” he said. “Oh, no, that’s ISIS who does that. We put a kid after school for a couple of hours. This is not the end of the world.”

Bill Maher is right. Our outrage culture needs to get a little perspective and take a break from their self-righteous self-promotion for just a few minutes.

As I have said before, these policemen were doing their jobs and trying to keep the school safe.  The world is never as black and white as liberals want us to think.

I’m thankful there’s at least one sane liberal out there that realizes stories are never quite as simple as they seem at first tweet.
