Another SCHOOL KID interrogated for "weapon" in school

[fj1200]

The word "anyone" in your post is what made me respond

Yes, they got lucky on one day and we're no longer ignorant of the threat.

[Gunny]

And this kid fits that profile?

Whack job? Yep. Why not check him out? How many school shootings have we had because of people like YOU? Afraid to call a whackadoodle what they are?

First WTC was not s suicide attack but it was an attack by Muslims

If Ahmed had indeed had a bomb, then everyone on here would be going crazy about how all the signs were there and no one cared because of political correctness. Maybe it is racial profiling, but I don't care. When blue-eyed blondes start becoming suicide bombers, then they can profile me....and I will willingly accept.

Geez, this is sooooo obvious to all who wants to see.

By that logic we should be profiling any swarthy person with a cell phone.

Duh. Yeah.

On what basis should he be checked out?

I'm pretty sure they're all dead by their own hand. In three planes anyway.

[fj1200]

Duh. Yeah.

Wow, you finally responded to me and it's to defend some ridiculous logic. Background checks for cell phones right?

D'oh! I forgot that I wasn't responding to you! lol

Oh I was talking about 1993 WTC attack.

It's better for you that way. Having to defend your viewpoint really sucks.

Oh, that was your reference to "first."

So, what does that say about their science teacher if he can't differentiate a clock from a bomb...

If I recall correctly, it was the English teacher who made the fuss, not the science teacher.

He brought the clock in for his science class to show his science teacher. I would think that the science teacher would have intervened and straightened everyone out concerning this project.

And don't forget that this could have been a practice run to see if he really could get away with bringing a bomb to school. Muslims are known for doing that type of thing.

So on Sunday night, he quickly put together a homemade digital clock: “Just something small,” as he casually put it to the Dallas Morning News — a circuit board and power supply connected to a digital display. He proudly offered it to his engineering teacher the next day.

But the teacher looked wary.


“He was like, ‘That’s really nice,’ ” Mohamed told the newspaper. “ ‘I would advise you not to show any other teachers.’ ”





During English class, the clock beeped, annoying his teacher. When he brought the device up to her afterward, she told him “it looks like a bomb,” according to Mohamed.


“I told her, ‘It doesn’t look like a bomb to me,’ ” he told the Morning News.

But the English teacher kept the clock, and during sixth period, Mohamed was pulled out of class by a police officer and the principal, who, the teen said, urged him to sign a written statement or he would be expelled. They took him to a room where four other officers were waiting. When he entered, one officer leaned back in his chair and said, “That’s who I thought it was,” Mohamed told MSNBC.


“They interrogated me and searched through my stuff and took my tablet and my invention,” Mohamed said. “They were like, ‘So you tried to make a bomb?’ I told them no, I was trying to make a clock.”
