Our President and industry leaders such as Mark Zuckerberg are inviting the young man who was arrested for bringing a homemade clock to school to visit the White House for Astronomy night, October 19th and Facebook HQ. They and others are celebrating his accomplishments in science and that we should be creating environments where creativity in the area is encouraged not shunned. This young man has gone from obscurity to celebrity in the span of a few days because of the initial overreaction of a teacher, school officials, and police. That said remember they erred on the side of safety for all at the school. What could have been a negative impact on his life has turned into a positive one and we should all be thankful that every once in a while a positive story is told.

Why didn't he invite Kathryn Steinle to the WH and advocate the removal of sanctuary cities, actually ENFORCING the Laws of the land?

Its great for this kid and his family, heck an invite to something like this for a kid interested in science and technology? I wish I could go.
I know someone will call me a hater but President Obama is only doing this as a childish act of "look how dumb I made you look now".
Invite the kid for his obvious raw desire to be a better person not because someone screwed up.

By speaking for groups who have perceived wrongs by society, the POTUS legitimizes the groups.

If they actually thought he had a bomb, why was the school evacuated and the bomb squad called?

SSG Paul Setterholm I think you mean "wasn't" instead of "was" but maybe I'm wrong. I didn't read that the school was evacuated.

well he's brought that lady who bathed herself in ??? whatever it was...and he brought in the person who taught him how to do selfies and he's brought OMGOD Al Sharpton like a gazillion times...and the parents of the traitor...so why not a no body kid who made the media...for reasons no good and bring him to the white house too.
But he doesn't bring people like Kate Steinle's parents or go to the funeral of cops gunned down or many other things he should have done....so, yeah...what else is new?
