1) the teachers at the school acted as they should have. again, had this actually been a bomb, they'd be called heros, not idiots or bigots. 2) I can't comment, nor can really any of you to any factual accuracy, that being muslim had anything to do with how he was treated. saying things like "being a muslim in texas" is just as prejudiced as what you are accusing others here of 3) I have no idea why the cops needed to question him for 4 hours after it was found to just be a clock. maybe they thought if he could build this, maybe this was a precursor to him building something more dangerous. who knows. everything being put forth here is pure conjecture. 4) if they were detaining him under the patriot act or whatever it is, they were not lawfully bound to call his parents or give him access to a lawyer. it sucks, but that's the way it is. I don't agree with that law in the slightest, but it's the law and they acted within the confines of it. 5) as a parent, I'd be beyond furious. but there doesn't seem to be any basis for a lawsuit, from what we currently know.
point 2
They led Ahmed into a room where four other police officers waited. He said an officer he’d never seen before leaned back in his chair and remarked: “Yup. That’s who I thought it was.”
I hope this kid gets the BEST civil rights lawyer or top dog out there and sues the shit out of the town, police department and state. These idiots won't learn until it starts costing the town and state money. Fuck these bigot assholes.
And I just saw the chief of police on Chris Hayes actually say that when they held Ahmad in interrogation, Ahmad didn't have the right to his parents or lawyer being there. There is NO WAY that that can possible be legal. Diesnt everyone have the right to remain silent and talk to a lawyer. Tell me I'm not wrong. Is this real? No fucken way that that's the law.
He most certainly does have the right to be silent. But remember, he wasn't under arrest at that time. What's so bad about a kid being questioned about a suspicious device? You guys are throwing the race card around a little too quickly in my opinion. This kid wasn't beaten, or abused.
He can get the best lawyer in the nation and he still won't sue. Nothing illegal was done to him. I don't know what the protocols are for detaining a suspect, but it doesn't appear that anything here was done illegally.
I don't know why the anger of this kids parents have anything to do with this. Of course they were angry. Of course they were scared. So what? The question here is did the police do something wrong? I say they didn't.
Anything to exonerate police! Broken record.
Anything to blame the police for the obvious lack of parental guidance of this little darling. Now that's a broken record. But hey, he now gets to break bread w/ Barry. I can't wait to see the picture of them around that clock.
If anyone had a lack of parental guidance growing up id say it was you. Unless of course the apple doesn't fall far from the tree and your family is full of bigots.
HAHHAHHHAHAHHAHA !!!!! the bigot call ! but.....Neanderthal is new, I would like to politely state that there some people on this forum that are too soft hearted for their own good, the world is not what you've created in this little space called the train all daisy's and sunshine, there are kids in the world that under 14 years old can kill with no remorse, kids that have taken guns to school and killed, in San Diego yesterday 6 schools where locked down because of bomb threats, it might do all some good to understand what kind of caution and even paranoia has been created because of the attacks and threats since 9-11, you all want so bad for everybody to listen and understand your side of the story yet have no interest obviously in understanding anybody else's concerns, and retaliate with childish replies like bigot..... but this is my favorite so far, "...you are a Neanderthal just like two or three others here .... " name calling is always a last act of defiance here on the train and the creativeness is impressive, so carry on you barbarians of political correctness, go and save the world !

I would also argue that the world is a bit different from your idiotic paranoid (bigoted) world.
6) and Obama reaching out to the kid is nothing more than a PR move. that's what the POTUS does. ease racial tensions before they get out of control where possible.
Still waiting on how this "bomb" I mean clock looked like before the police got their hands on it. And still waiting on the reason that the bomb squad WASNT called after they saw the "bomb" I mean clock. 4 fucken hours. At least this didn't happen in Chicago where musky would've salivated to take this brown terrorist on a bumpy ride through the streets.

I'm not sure why the police are being ragged on here.They HAVE TO respond when the school called.This is on school admin and staff.Cops didn't press charges.When things were figured out he was let go. Only a parental call should have been made.But by the principle.

They aren't really being ragged on. Nobody has insulted them or called for them to lose their jobs. They have been criticized for holding him for 4 fucking hours of questioning without notifying his parents. Obviously, any parent would be outraged if it was their child, but some people around here refuse to budge an inch where police are involved. Last12 keeps brushing it aside as though it is no big deal, and they did nothing worthy of criticism. I don't buy it, if it was his kid he wouldn't be so dismissive.

What difference does it make what it looked like? A figure of authority, the teacher, thought it was a bomb. It really makes no difference what it looked like.
1) the teachers at the school acted as they should have. again, had this actually been a bomb, they'd be called heros, not idiots or bigots. 2) I can't comment, nor can really any of you to any factual accuracy, that being muslim had anything to do with how he was treated. saying things like "being a muslim in texas" is just as prejudiced as what you are accusing others here of 3) I have no idea why the cops needed to question him for 4 hours after it was found to just be a clock. maybe they thought if he could build this, maybe this was a precursor to him building something more dangerous. who knows. everything being put forth here is pure conjecture. 4) if they were detaining him under the patriot act or whatever it is, they were not lawfully bound to call his parents or give him access to a lawyer. it sucks, but that's the way it is.

alright, one possible racist cop in the mix after he was already detained. but we can't say for sure either way if the reaction he got at the school was in any way race-related.
after reading the article you posted, I'm unsure as to why he was suspended. My guess is the principal wants to send a message to the student body not to bring unknown objects to school, not necessarily punish Ahmed.

Wrong, again. The first teacher he showed it to knew it was a fucken clock. I just want to see what it looks like before they got their hands on it. You know, to see what it looked like before they made it look like a bomb.
Let me make a correction.....I don't believe Ahmed was interrogated for 4 hours, I believe it was an hour and a half according to Ahmed. I think after the interrogation and the subsequent departure from school to the police station the totality appears to be 4 hours. That is after his parents were called and Ahmed was back with his parents.

Over these last couple of pages, I tend to lean toward Hugh's & Thirty's perspectives.
Despite one officer's supposed comment (which was after he was arrested?), I don't know if Ahmed being Muslim was a factor in this, but I don't think so.
Also, the "little Muslim" comment that was made earlier is eye-opening, as was someone else's comment on another, albeit unrelated, thread about "beating them back".
Again, G under P posted a link to an article that had a white kid who built a nuclear reactor. Was that kid arrested or interrogated for 1 1/2 hrs? No, he was given a scholarship. Wake up

I'm sure it also wasn't a clock tied to dynamite sticks that Wil E Coyote buys from Acme, but still, I could see why the other teachers would be more than alarmed (pun intended).

He was suspended for bringing a device perceived to be a threat to school, aka: a bomb. He was arrested for bringing a hoax bomb to school.

This is clearly an example of somebody looking out for the safety of the school. If you want to play the race card, fine. But it is obvious to me that there were no laws broken and the kid was not violated. The only problem I have is that he remained suspended after be was cleared. And that's clearly not a police issue.

he didn't bring it to school. after the fact, Ahmed is getting the same type of treatment as the nuclear kid.

Did he take the nuclear reactor to school in his backpack?

Only a parental call should have been made.But by the principle.
I don't buy it, if it was his kid he wouldn't be so dismissive.
after reading the article you posted, I'm unsure as to why he was suspended. My guess is the principal wants to send a message to the student body not to bring unknown objects to school, not necessarily punish Ahmed.
