When is America going to get serious about the problem of white kids getting suspended from school for nothing?

By now you’ve heard the story of Ahmed Mohamed, crowned by the Daily Beast “The Muslim Hero America Has Been Waiting For” after the 14-year-old brought to school a beeping, strange-looking homemade concealed device that turned out to be a clock.

School officials, thinking, as 95% of Americans would, that it kinda looked like a bomb, hauled him out of class. Police put him in handcuffs and, even after the confusion passed, the boy was suspended from school.

That earned Mohamed a planned trip to the White House, a message of support from Hillary Clinton, an offer to stop by Facebook to meet Mark Zuckerberg and an invitation to be an intern at Twitter.

  1. The boy behaved in an equivalent way to vocally adherent Muslims deliberately occupying the front row in first class and ignoring specific instructions from the flight attendant to cork it, plant their butts in their seats, and buckle up JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.

  2. Why did he bring the “homemade” clock to school? No one seemed to be expecting it.

    Maybe it was all a test.

  3. Bill Mahr had Mark Cuban on and Mark Cuban said he had spoken to the kid and the police. Bill Mahr never really let him get out the story because he wanted to make his point that Muslims bomb people. But from what we heard, it sounds like the kid was trying to let it get out of hand by not answering questions and the police went too far and cuffed him. Bottom line–He should have been questioned but once he was, it was not hard to realize there was nothing wrong and to send him back to class.

  4. 8:14pm, the best information indicates that the boy simply showed up at school with an unusual metallic box emitting a strange timer-type ticking sound, and that when asked about it, he refused to say anything. The box wasn’t opened and the contents revealed until the police became involved. This kid was handled with kid gloves despite pulling off an obvious bomb hoax.

  5. Are you people really that gullible ?
    The kids father is a well known Muslim agitator who hooked his son into
    The ruse…and guess what? You all fell for it…
