Weapons and items resembling weapons are known to be prohibited at school. Homemade electronic clocks are not weapons, nor would it resemble a weapon to a reasonable person.

Tune in to the Six O'Clock News. Oops, you'll need a clock to know what time it is. Nevermind.

And make sure you read the details. This part makes it just sickening and sad:

"When Ahmed was called out of class, he said he was brought into a room with four police officers, one of whom said, "Yup. That's who I thought it was."

Ahmed told the Dallas Morning News that he felt aware of what he looked like and his name as the officers fired questions at him.

He recalled that one officer said to him, "So you tried to make a bomb?"

He disputed that and kept telling them he'd created a clock."

Like what? It was a clock.


Maybe the student brought it in as a prank?


No. He brought it as part of an engineering class he was taking.

You should apply for a job with the Irvine PD. You seem to be a good match.


I don't know there seems to always be 2 sides of a story and the media always presents the most inflammatory to get clicks and views.

The "more to the story" is that authorities in Texas are idiots.


Texas cops are racist. Good god. Well I never...

Wanna bet Inspector Gadget took it upon himself to search the boy's locker and applied for a warrant to search his home? I'd also like to know whether he was Mirandized.

The stupidity started with the teacher and school administration. Too bad he didn't tell them all to go f*ck themselves after they basically accused him of being a terrorist. I'm sickened by this episode.

I checked Breitbart because I was sure there must be a sinister side to clock-making that the lame stream media wasn't covering. I found this article attacking CAIR:

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/09/16/cair-calls-alleged-texas-high-school-hoax-bomb-islamophobic/

This paragraph from that story is right out of the Onion:

Police reacted to the possibility of a bomb threat by arresting the 14-year-old. They took the handcuffed youth to juvenile detention. However, the boy’s reaction to police questioning may not have helped to clear his name sooner. Officers described Mohamed as “passive aggressive” in his responses to their questions and did not have a “reasonable answer” to explain the situation while investigators said the student told them it was just a clock he was tinkering with as a project, according to the Dallas Morning News."
