High School Student Uses GameBoy to Create Fake Bomb

What is wrong with high school kids these days? See children, this is why schools have metal detectors and surveillance cameras now. Keep it up and you're gonna hear about kids getting cavity searched before every class. School is supposed to be for learning folks, not a place where angst ridden teens can live out their delusions of grandeur.
It's part of that whole "having a pulse" thing, then? Yeah, come to think of it, we used to have a cat that would torture mice, so fair point.derelix said:
No, they didn't. And I wasn't thinking of C4, honestly. You can get explosive compounds, like, say, fulminated mercury, which are highly explosive, but, unstable, and you can (with mercury) basically, make it yourself in your garage. The issue is, as I mentioned, they tend to be somewhat unstable.derelix said:
You can easily synthesize more stable, but, still explosive compounds, like old fashioned gunpowder pretty easily as well, and a couple ounces of that will do a fair bit of damage, but, again, not that much really.
C4 is just ridiculously stable. Literally, in spite of what the movies taught you, you can shoot blocks of C4 and it will remain inert. Hell, you can probably set it on fire. What you can't do is run electrical current through it. Do that, and boom.
You might be right though. Generally when it comes to crap out of the anarchists cookbook, I think of toxins first, not straight up explosives. And when I think of planting a bomb in a building, I'm thinking of shit like Oklahoma City. Where you need a truck to deliver the payload.
Still, as a practical measure, I can't think of anything you could do with a game boy and a cellphone that you couldn't do with a disposable brick phone, a zip lock bag, and some duct tape.
you can make a bomb out of
computers
televisions
gameboys
just drill a small hole in top of the monitor/screen
FILL the hollow space
with liquid explosives or gunpowder
plug the hole
when the device is turned on again it will explode
violently
just remember to
TURN OFF THE DEVICE AND USE ELECTRICALLY INSULATED TOOLS OR YOU WILL DIE

I would be more smart, I would start small rumours that there is a terrorist cell within the school, several weeks, even months in advance. I would then make a convincing looking bomb and place it somewhere obscure but a little obvious. Finally just before the school would be evacuated, with some witnesses I would disarm the "bomb" becoming a hero within the school. and since I "disarmed" it my fingerprints and possible hairs, etc. could be explained! Obviously extensive research would be needed to convince the police that you knew what you were doing, and they must never find out you true actions, but man, a HERO.
And to make it more priceless take the isotope out of some smoke alarms and make the bomb a little radioactive, though that may draw too much attention.
A little off topic, but you know what would make a perfect bomb, a router. You could pack explosives in the case, it will be connected to the net for remote activation, and no one pays attention to routers, an employee will just think, hey the IT guys just fixed something...Just say'n

You should probably read the story again, it was not a real bomb, just made to look like a bomb.Jaredin said:
