Ahmed Mohamed

Irving TX 9th grader arrested after taking a homemade clock to school.

“It could reasonably be mistaken as a device if left in a bathroom or under a car. The concern was, what was this thing built for? Do we take him into custody?”

So can a fucking backpack. I hope this kid can sue the school system and the police department into oblivion, and I then hope that the USDOJ comes in and lays some serious something for the blatant admission to racist policing policies.

People are pointing out that this is shades of Kiera Wilmot.

Definitive proof that 9th grader Ahmed Mohamed is smarter than the police officers who arrested him.

How to make your own homemade clock that isn't a bomb.
