That's just it, I don't believe it was because of his name and appearance...it could be because he brought a damn look-a-like bomb to school, I don't give a shite what his intentions were

If you have the brain power to create an account on this site then there is no way you can be dumb enough to believe that.

A lot more than that. It should at least match whatever the largest discrimination settlement ever.


You're the biggest idiot on this board...discrimination would be patting him down a few times a week to check for bombs and then slapping the cuffs on him because his pencil smelled suspicious.

The kid brought a homemade device that resembled a bomb, there are more then likely set in stone procedures for responding to a call about a fake bomb, and those might include detaining for questioning you ignorant prick.

putting him in cuffs, printing him, and not allowing him to call his parents.

Oh, the amount of ambulance chasers circling his block and sitting on the curb waiting for a glimpse of his parents.....

This family is going to get PAID.

Nerds unite in support of boy genius Ahmed Mohamed

quote:

Ahmed Mohamed is a maker in the making. A young genius if you ask his cousin. Mohamed builds his own radios and Bluetooth speakers and likes to tinker on his go-kart because he wants to be an inventor when he grows up. So, the 9th-grader brought a clock he made to his new Texas school with the hope of impressing his teachers. Instead, the Muslim boy was arrested by Texas police after teachers worried that his clock was actually a bomb.

Mohamed's America is also the country that’s rallying to his defense on Twitter under the #IStandWithAhmed hashtag. One of his earliest and most vocal supporters is Anil Dash, entrepreneur, writer and self-professed geek.

Nerds everywhere are offering support for the promising engineer arrested in his NASA T-shirt. People like these Google and JPL engineers:

@marsroverdriver
@anildash We filled out your Google form. I'm offering a tour of Google LA, @marssciencegrad a tour of JPL. I'll crowdfund family's trip.

And this other JPL engineer:

@cirquelar
Anytime you wanna see Mars rovers Ahmed, let me know. #IStandWithAhmed

so you pull him in the principals office, get the local bomb squad to check it out in the mean while, they open it up and realize there's no explosive charge

case over

you don't arrest him and bring him to a juvi

at most have the local school assigned officer detain him in the office while checking it out

A clock? Of all things, he built a clock?

It is suspicious. Maybe his parents are terrorists or were influenced by terrorists to make a little trial run on seeing how the school would react to a student with a homemade clock. Like some of the trial runs made by the 9/11 hijackers getting box cutters through security. The NASA shirt is just to throw off authorities and the public. Of all days, he happens to dress like a Star Trek nerd on this day? . Hmmmmmmm. And who took that photo other than his parent or guardian to be released to the public? Sounds like the whole event was staged for the purpose of making the public put its guard down by making this kid into an innocent victim.

Next clock made and taken to the school is treated differently due to the SJW outcry of racism and islamaphobia at the school. School officials allow said clock to be shown and displayed until.......kaboom!

We need to patriot act his parents and any known associates with vigor until we arrive at the correct analysis of this clock making incident.

Do you know what a bomb looks like?










One things these all have in common is there is something that is made to explode, even in the fake pic. A box of wires is no bomb.

The kid maybe should of explained his project better, but shame on the school for calling the police in on this.

I'm not as overzealous as you with my assumptions but there a things in his statements that don't mske sense:

First he talks about a cop making a comment about "yeah that's who I thought it was" when the kid looks more black than Muslim.

Also, he talks about how he threw this thing together in 20 minutes right before bed but was so excited he had to bring it for show and tell?

I'm amazed people just buy his account of what happened and start demanding this family be paid off, what a sad state of affairs this country is in.

Why don't you start a gofundme page for the poor discriminated against Muslim, because I'll say it again...I don't think the reaction had anything to do with nationality or religion.

No doubt... all these idiots declaring he should be paid when he's actually bringing jihad to Texas.

I'd pay him to bring some jihad to Alabama.

He's a child bringing something to school he was proud of that he built. He showed it to a teacher who was ok with it but told him to hide it.

He was not at all trying to be "humorous". He's a kid that probably didn't understand why anyone thinks his clock is a bomb










The fact that a teacher told him to hide it tells me that the object had no business being at the school. The original teacher should've confiscated it and given it back after school. He dropped the ball in my opinion. I never said anything about the boy trying to be humorous. I said that the school administrators don't have much of a sense of humor or much tolerance.

Is there a photo of the clock? Are there visible distinctively colored wires in which cutting the wrong one means certain death? Is it duct-taped to a bunch of bars of white clay? A big ACME stamp on the back?
