14 year old boy arrested for bringing a homemade clock to school

[publicunofficial]

The dumbest thing about this whole debate is that the clock doesn't look like a bomb, because bombs with dumb beeping visual timers only exist in bad action movies.

Also, f**k Richard Dawkins

Clock boy is suing everybody now, a shocking turn I know!



Also, there are more attacks against Jews in the US than there are Muslims (or all other religious groups put together).

I was right for being skeptical of this kid from the start.

Yeah screw him for seeking retribution for being discriminated against and having his rights violated.

I was bullied too in Middle School. Where's my $15 million?

Yahoo News tier comment, you're better than that.

Were you arrested and publically labelled a terrorist essentially for your ethnicity?

Your inabilty to distinguish between the two obviously different situations does you no credit whatsoever .

There really isn't a difference. Weird kid in weird times does weird things, weird rednecks react in kind. The fact is, people do nasty, horrible things to people of all faiths everyday. Being a victim of the real world doesn't entitle you to a medal and a five minute photo-op with Obama.

Also, the kid brought it in for an engineering class, yet instead randomly plugged it into the wall during English class, for no reason. Should have been sent out of class just for disrupting it. I didn't walk into Mrs. Moss's class everyday when I was a freshmen yelling "hey guys I met Tim Pawlenty!"

you weren't ARRESTED as a TERRORIST for your ETHNICITY. get that through your thick "former" white supremacist head.

Was he arrested and charged as a terrorist? Or was he arrested for being disruptive. The only reason anybody even heard of this was because of PEOPLE LIKE YOU (I can use caps too) who, whether real or imagined, brought in Islamaphobia into the equation. It didn't have to be a racial issue, but Admed's family was smart enough to see where the money was and made it into one.

Was he mistreated? Yes. Are millions of other Muslims mistreated? Yes. Are black Americans mistreated by the police? Yes. Lots of people are mistreated. The world is a bad place. People are bad. That doesn't entitle anyone to anything besides their basic rights to life and liberty.

Of course everyone gets mistreated. But when there is a pattern of certain people being mistreated in a certain way, you can't just ignore it.

And yes the world is a bad place, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to make the world better where we can. You're "OH BUCK UP THE WORLD IS HARSH" talk is just an excuse for not giving a s**t.

The problem with the people like you is that we can't make the world a better place. Giving Ahmed $15 million that could be used to hire actually competent school teachers isn't going to make this go away.

I guarantee you that the teacher who reported him won't be fired.

Giving him money won't solve the problem, but talking about it and addressing the xenophobia behind the decision might. Both are certainly better options than saying "Kid deserved it"
